NATURAL THINGS I (SHOULD)EAT FOR CLEAR SKIN

I have the terrible misfortune of being blessed via genetics of having rosacea acne. My third pregnancy has made it flare up with such aggressiveness, it has been demoralising to say the least. Many people believe they have the right to comment on the redness of my cheeks and the small raised spots.

Until now, I was able to manage my rosacea relatively well. If I could tell it was going to get worse soon, I would resort to various supplements to keep it calm. This tactic doesn't appear to be very effective during this pregnancy though.

However, I will attest this to my rising levels of some hormones or other and the fact I am carrying a girl this time around and that I am older in age and proceed to list the various supplements/foods I eat to have clear skin.

• Garlic; garlic is a superfood. Known to bomb and blast out those bad bacteria in the gut. Clear gut= clear skin. Naturally.
• Collagen; the key ingredient of bone broth, great for the gut. 
• Fish oil; omega 3 to heal the mind and make the skin have an all-over soft glow. Healthier mind, less stress and the rosacea is less likely to be so ferocious.
• Avocado; The omega-3 reason again. I like to substitute mayonnaise (bad fats alert!) with avocado in a fresh fish sandwich. It has a great consistency and taste. Yummy!
• Vinegar; full of probiotics, acidic and clears out the gut. Get that waste out!
