43. Steak

There are two ways steak may increase acne. First, fatty meat has the potential to increase blemishes because of high levels of saturated fat, which boosts hormone production. Excess hormones may raise the chances of an outbreak.

Secondly, a lot of meats available on the market come from animals that received antibiotics. These have the potential to cause an imbalance between good and bad bacteria, leading to acne overproduction. Try to avoid fatty meats. Instead, choose lean steak and skip eating the fat.
