Foods to Eat for Rosacea

What's the Best Diet for Rosacea?

What are the best foods to eat for rosacea? You'll be amazed to learn that a healthy diet for rosacea will also provide you with fewer wrinkles, less aches and pains in your joints and will also save you money! Once you learn the foods that cause rosacea you can almost always reduce or eliminate your outbreaks.


Foods to Eat for Rosacea - Eat More of These

It is no surprise that many of the foods that cause rosacea are ones that may not be the best for our overall health. To reduce or eliminate your rosacea symptoms, try eating more of these kinds of foods.

Eat foods that are high in omega 3 fatty acids such as salmon, sardines, mackerel, halibut, herring, flax seed, and flaxseed oil.

Eat more berries such as blueberries, cherries, blackberries. These help reduce size of inflamed blood vessels, and have many other positive health promoting qualities.

Focus the rest of your diet on these healthy foods:

  • Fresh veggies
  • Whole grains, especially low inflammation grains like rice, millet, quinoa
  • Nuts
  • Seeds
  • Tofu
  • Small amounts of white meat such as lean chicken, turkey and fish
  • Pure water
This diet for rosacea is a high alkaline diet that avoids high carbohydrate and acid producing foods that cause inflammation.

You will see that this kind of a diet has some additional benefits such as antiaging and wrinkle reduction!

This diet for rosacea is to the 3 Day Face Lift Diet which some people use to reduce skin inflammation that causes aging.

Foods to Eat for Rosacea - Avoid These Foods

These foods can trigger a rosacea outbreak, because they cause inflammation in the body. Those of us with sensitive skin usually find that reducing inflammation causes our skin problems to reduce or even go away completely!

As you can see, many of these foods that a diet for rosacea recommends you avoid are popular and "fast" foods that have been developed in recent times.

People who live in more traditional cultures and who eat a more natural, whole grain diet do not have a high incidence of rosacea.

  • Artificial sweeteners
  • Food colorings
  • Preservatives
  • MSG, found in many oriental foods
  • Alcohol
  • Spicy foods
  • Pickled foods
  • Fermented Foods
  • Marinated Foods
  • Smoked Foods
  • Refined foods
  • Cheese
  • Red meat
  • Hot beverages
  • Caffeine, found in coffee, tea, cola, chocolate, and energy drinks

Foods to Eat for Rosacea - These Foods CAN Trigger Rosacea

One of the BEST ways you can discover which foods to eat for rosacea is to keep track of the foods that you eat right BEFORE you have an outbreak of rosacea.

Some people for example, know that their skin flares up after they have chocolate, or tomato sauce.

The more you know about your own reactions, the easier it will be for you to create your own customized diet for rosacea.

hen you know which foods that cause rosacea, you can almost always avoid an outbreak!

There are even some very healthy foods that you wouldn't think might cause an outbreak, but some people find they have a reaction to:

  • Avocados
  • Bananas
  • Broad leaf beans
  • Citrus fruits
  • Eggplant
  • Figs
  • Raisins
  • Red plums
  • Spinach
  • Tomatoes
Some dairy products and meats can also trigger a rosacea outbreak:
  • Sour cream
  • Yogurt
  • Cheese
  • Beef
  • Lamb
  • Liver
  • Lobster
  • Prawns
If you absolutely MUST have dairy, use low fat dairy products.

Nowadays you can find substitutes like tofu based or almond based cheeses and yogurts, which may be a better solution than using dairy.

If you MUST have red meat, make it lean and organic.

Some highly refined foods can trigger rosacea:

  • Bread
  • Pasta
  • Refined sugar

Some spices and flavorings can also trigger rosacea

  • vanilla
  • Yeast extract

Beyond Rosacea and Foods -
More Tips to Reduce Your Rosacea Symptoms

There are a few other things you can do that will reduce your rosacea symptoms.

  • I have created a free natural beauty eBook which shows you how to clear ANY skin problem naturally using free and very affordable methods.

    I highly encourage you to request this eBook now while it is still free! There are so many tips I've collected over the years that doctors and skin care experts will never tell you. Most cost nothing, and can make a HUGE different in your skin problems.

  • Use gentle hypoallergenic products on your skin which are free from BOTH irritating chemicals AND also free from other allergy producing herbs, botanicals and essential oils.
Did you know that almost ALL major brands of hypoallergenic products contain ingredients that research shows WILL irritate sensitive skin?

I find this really shocking. My free ebook will show you exactly how I figured this out, in Lesson #1.

So far in my research to find products that are BOTH chemically safe AND free of plant allergens, I've only found one line of hypoallergenic skin care products that does both.
