Which Food To Eat for Rosacea

By Linda Robison

Are there certain foods to eat for rosacea? People who suffer from this skin disorder may find that avoiding certain foods helps reduce flare-ups. However, foods dont cause rosacea; its most likely an allergic reaction that causes rosacea symptoms.

Most people find that once they identify the offending food and eliminate it from their diet, their eczema flare-ups are reduced. For others, they may still have some eczema symptoms and need to find a natural treatment for rosacea.

What is rosacea? Its an uncomfortable skin condition that is marked by flushing, swelling and redness on the face and nose. Many people confuse rosacea with a bad sunburn, until they realize that its doesnt go away and seems to get worse after eating certain foods.

Most doctors dont know the exact causes of rosacea and suspect that it could be hereditary. Other suspected causes include:

- Sun exposure - Medication - Stress - Hormones - Environment

Ok, so which foods can trigger a flare-up? The most popular offending foods are dairy products. It is estimated that up to 75% of rosacea suffers experience a reaction after eating dairy. Other foods include wheat, gluten, nuts, soy, food coloring, and preservatives.

Rosacea Diet: One of the best ways to reduce rosacea flare-ups, in addition to avoiding allergic foods, is to change the diet and stay away from highly acidic foods. When following a good rosacea diet try to avoid:

- Meat - Alcohol - Fried foods - Processed simple foods - 17273
