To effectively address acne, it is crucial to adopt a low carb diet and practice intermittent fasting. High levels of insulin caused by consuming too many carbs trigger a spike in androgens, aggravating acne. Snacking, which leads to frequent insulin surges, also contributes to the problem. By eliminating snacks and transitioning to burning fat for fuel through intermittent fasting, the sebaceous glands shrink, reducing oil production and inflammation. This dietary approach offers additional benefits, such as youthful-looking skin and anti-aging qualities.
