“Food Doesn’t Affect Acne” #diet.
Keeping a detailed diary to identify and manage acne triggers can be a highly effective strategy when done with medical supervision. Here’s how you can maintain such a diary and work with healthcare professionals to reduce or eliminate these triggers:
Daily Entries: Dedicate time each day to record your diary entries. Note down everything you eat and drink, your skincare routine, and any new products you use. Include details about your environment, stress levels, menstrual cycle (if applicable), sleep patterns, and physical activities.
Food and Drink: Write down all meals, snacks, and beverages consumed throughout the day. Be specific about portion sizes, ingredients, and times of consumption. Pay attention to common acne triggers like dairy, sugar, and high-glycemic foods.
Skincare Products: List all the skincare products you use, including cleansers, moisturizers, sunscreens, and makeup. Note the brands, specific products, and any changes in your routine.
Environment and Lifestyle: Document your exposure to pollutants, weather conditions, and activities that cause sweating. Also, include details about your stress levels, emotional state, and any significant life events or changes.
