Cure your acne by eating fruits

Fruits are great saviors of our skin. They can defeat any skin problem like no other. So if you like fruits, you can beat the acne blues very easily with these. As for others, you better develop a liking for these and eat/use them in the right way to get rid of the annoying acne sitting on your beautiful face.

Below are the fruits you must try to cure acne:

Apples

An apple a day keeps the doctor away, even acne. Yes, that's right. It's full of water and healthy nutrients to keep skin healthy from the inside out. The fiber content in the fruits is quite high, which makes your intestines clean. This is an important aspect that is required to keep the skin clear. Juice extracted from the fruit can be used as a cleanser and toner. It keeps the skin's pH balanced and can also be combined with apple cider vinegar as a topical treatment for the small pimples.

Bananas

Don't go bananas over our selection of fruits to combat your acne battle. The fruit provides the body with water, is rich in antioxidants, vitamins C and B. The peel, usually considered useless, must be used against those annoying pimples. Simply rub the inside of the fruit on acne-prone skin for 10 minutes. Never rinse it immediately, leave it alone and only clean it before going to bed. Make it a part of your daily routine until your skin is completely clear.

Berries

Bury that acne with berries. Berries are a powerhouse of nutrients, vitamins A, B12, C, E, potassium, magnesium, manganese and fiber. All of this in some form helps the skin stay healthy. Eat it to cure acne from within and apply it on skin to cleanse it from outside. If hormonal imbalance is the reason for breakouts, this is a perfect fruit to check insulin and glucose levels in the blood. Remember, vitamin A is used in many topical acne treatments and is also anti-inflammatory.

grapes

The skin of this fruit contains a compound that will help you in your anti-acne crusade. This compound, resveratrol, inhibits the growth of acne-causing bacteria. It reduces oxidation. Although it is a high glycemic index food that is known to trigger acne, when combined with a topical cream like benzoyl peroxide, the results are unbeatable. While benzoyl peroxide kills acne-causing bacteria, resveratrol inhibits bacterial growth, allowing them to pop up for a long time and keeping your skin clear.

Lemons

When life throws lemons at you, take them and use them to heal those flare-ups. The acidic part of this yellow fruit cleanses the skin. It removes the dry skin that is the reason for clogged pores. In addition, it is good at building collagen and maintaining skin elasticity. Apply lemon juice to the acne with a cotton ball. It has an astringent effect and kills the bacteria.

papaya

The unripe fruit has been a reliable and effective acne treatment for centuries. An enzyme, papain, helps minimize the redness caused by acne. Its flesh can be used to open the pores and drain the clogged impurities. When a pureed papaya is applied topically to acne-affected skin, its antibacterial agents fight the bacteria that cause acne. Allow the pulp to remain on the skin for 10-15 minutes before rinsing it off. A ripe papaya contains beta-carotene, an antioxidant that can help produce healthy skin cells.

Tomatoes

Another remedy is the wonderful red fruit tomato. In addition to vitamins A, C and K, it is rich in lycopene, an antioxidant and our main healing ingredient. It makes acne disappear by drying it. So next time you see a little one trying to emerge, put tomato juice on it. There are two methods to do this. One, grate tomato slices and two, crush and apply the pulp. Both are equally effective. Just leave it for an hour (never longer as it will make your skin extremely dry). Lycopene also helps the skin regenerate new cells. Since it is anti-inflammatory, it checks inflammation that is caused as a byproduct of acne occurring on your skin.

Oranges

We all know that vitamin C is good for the skin. How then can we not include oranges in our fight against acne? It fights free radicals and increases collagen production. Orange peels cure acne even better. 100 grams of orange peels contain 136 milligrams of vitamin C. Fiber is also significantly higher in the peels than in the whole fruit. Drink juice to rejuvenate the skin from within and use the powdered scrubs for clearer skin. Make a face mask and apply it directly to the skin. This prevents excessive sebum production and also lightens the skin texture.

These fruits are a delicious way to cure acne. Don't miss them in your diet and skin care!
