Acne Program - Step 9 Protein and Other Food to Eat
Eating the right kind of food is what can give you a strong
immune system and help you prevent sickness and all kinds of skin
blemishes including acne.
Here are some of the foods that can help you overcome the acne
on your face or throughout your body.
Protein
Eating excess meat is harmful to your health. Eating too much
meat, more than 2-4 ounces per day, has been found to contribute to
narrowing of the arteries.
If you do physical labor and are involved in a lot of movement
in your work, then you should eat more than 2-4 ounces of protein
per day. Just make sure that the meat has a minimum of additives
and preservatives.
Remember, meat is high in saturated fat, which blocks the
activity of EPA and DHA, which produce prostaglandin and control
the activity of your hormones.
Meat and bread is a big contributor to creating constipation.
Meat is difficult to digest and many times it will get into the
colon partial digested. This condition benefits the bad bacteria
and allows them to dominate the colon and create constipation.
Because meat and bread have little fiber, they move slowly in
the colon, which leads to constipation and eventually to some type
of colon inflammation.
Bad bacteria, decaying meat and other undigested food contribute
to the build up of toxic matter in the colon. This is the type of
condition you should try to avoid, if you have acne. You need fecal
matter in the colon to move regularly and out the rectum,
otherwise, toxic matter will build up and end up in your blood
stream
Here are the grains you should be eating:
* Brown rice - contain many amino acids that help rebuild skin
tissue
* Whole grains - contain folic acid, magnesium, and vitamin E, B
vitamins, minerals, and fiber
* Oats - use them in the morning with honey or raisins. Oats
have an anti-inflammatory effect on the skin and help to keep you
regular.
Seeds and nuts
* Almonds - Almonds contain protein, the B vitamins, calcium,
iron, potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus. Use them as a snack.
These small nuts help to build muscles and tissue.
* Flax seeds - These seeds are known for containing plenty of
omega 3 oil, an essential oil for life. They also contain fiber
when used ground up and put into smoothies. Omega 3 is also an
anti-inflammatory oil, which is good for acne.
* Pecans - This is one of the good nuts to eat. It contains
Vitamin A, B's, C, calcium, iron, phosphorus, and potassium. Use
them as a snack.
* Pine nuts - these nuts also one of the best to eat. They
contain vitamin A, C, B's, protein and iron.
* Sesame seeds - They are high in calcium, phosphorus, and
potassium. They are helpful in relieving various skin diseases such
as acne by reducing the swelling.
* Sunflower seeds - These seeds should be used as a snack. They
are high in protein, calcium and vitamin A. They provide nutrients
for building the whole body and are good for dry skin.
All of these nuts and seeds should be eaten raw. Heating and
other processing will kill the life force of the nut or seed and
also reduce the quantity of the vitamins and minerals.
Eat these nuts and seeds as snacks. Sesame seeds, sunflower, and
flax seeds can be put directly into your blender as you make your
smoothies.
