The article includes Dr. Patel's expert commentary on the correlation between acne and increased milk consumption.
The quality of your skin is a reflection of your lifestyle, specifically your diet. Studies show that there is a direct correlation between breakouts and the foods we eat, which is why it’s important to ensure that your diet is filled with nutrient-rich foods and drinks that are fortified with skin-healthy vitamins and minerals.
In fact, dermatologists say that there’s one drink that is notorious for clogging pores and causing flare-ups–it’s milk!
