What to Do About that Oily Skin
If you find that you have severely oily skin and you’re using the top skin care products, you might want to consider that your diet is throwing something off. Here are some dietary tips to follow:
• Eat foods that are high in B vitamins. A slight B-vitamin deficiency can cause oily skin, so eat a diet rich in whole grains, legumes, nuts, and organ meats. Or you can take one to two tablespoons of brewer’s yeast a day, which is also good for your immune system and eczema.
• Go vegetarian. Just as those suffering from dry skin should eat more fats, those suffering from oily skin should consume fewer fats. You can do this by simply upping the veggies and grains and cutting meat from your diet two or three days a week. Have two vegetables with a meal (salad and broccoli, or squash and asparagus) and instead of making a pasta-dish with ground hamburger, try making it with black beans. These are easy ways to cut down the amount of fat you consume to keep your skin from overproducing oil, but it’s equally important to stock up on quality products that will sop up the oil and refine your pores.
