How do you get pimples from eating oily foods?

Question

i heard that, you get pimples from eating oily foods...but how is that...

????

Answer 1

it could be food allergies.

when i eat certain breads and candies, i get a red rash on my face and start to break out. it doesn't really have anything to do with the oil in the food, rather something in the ingredients does not mesh well with an individual's body.

Answer 2

The oil needs to get out of you system and does so through the skin, as well as through bowel movements. The best thing you can do to get rid of pimples is to eat healthier.

You have to attack acne where it starts, with your diet. For me, diet was the cause and solution. Topical medications fight the symptoms. Start by eliminating trans fats and eating more fruits and vegetables. Once you start cleaning up the inside of your body, by eating properly, the outside of your body (your skin) will be get cleaned up too. I started a website to document my problem and solution.

You might find it helpful to read my story. Just remember to eat an all natural/organic diet with lots of fruits and vegetables. Stay away from processed foods. Use mild, all natural cleansers and don't pick at your face. Get lots of sleep and enough water for your body weight. Remember, clean body = clean skin. While you're waiting for your skin to clear, remind yourself that acne is a challenge that you will overcome soon. Once you're rid of it, tell all your friends how you did it. That's what I'm doing. God Bless.

Answer 3

I think that is more of a myth. The only way it could be true is if you were eating the oily food and then touched your skin.

Answer 4

No thats not true,from dirty hands or oily hands maybe,oily fish is good for you,did you mean like fried foods,yes to much of that isn't good at all.

Answer 5

The only way oily foods give you zits is if you touch your skin with oily fingers. However, spicy foods can give you zits.

Answer 6

that is a myth

you dont get pimples from anything

they just come as part of growing up

dont listen to your parents on this one

Answer 7

you dont... your face produces oil naturally and when theres too much oil in a pore than it builds up into a pimple... and if you scrub your face than your face produces more oil and you get more pimples

Answer 8

The oil transfers to the skin.

Answer 9

the oils transfer into your skin and trap dirt. also its just unhealthy, healthy eating reduces acne.

Answer 10

You rub it on your face and the oil blocks your pores.
