41. Butter
Butter is a dairy product, and naturally processed dairy foods and drinks may cause acne breakouts. Another reason butter might increase blemishes is that it's often used on high carbohydrate bread or crackers.
To reduce uncontrollable blemishes, limit the use of butter. Several alternatives are available, such as coconut oil, which may be the better cooking oil option to relieve acne.7TC;, Wallace. ‘Health Effects of Coconut Oil-A Narrative Review of Current Evidence.’ Journal of the American College of Nutrition, U.S. National Library of Medicine, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30395784/ Mashed avocado and hummus are also good substitutes for butter.
