Get rid of pimples with a low-glycemic diet

Categories: Diet & Weight Loss, Nutrition & Supplements

In many cases, the call for a low glycemic diet is an easy decision to make for many of us. Those swings in metabolism caused by high-carb and refined foods can go drastically down as a result -- something I personally found out years ago when I integrated that lifestyle as an experiment.

But low glycemic diets are not just for those wanting to have a bodily balance throughout the day. In addition to helping diabetics due to the gradual blood sugar increase (not rapid), those with skin problems like pimples may be helped as well.

Australian dermatologists say that 20 pimply-faced young men had 22 fewer acne lesions after 12 weeks on a low glycemic diet than they had seen before the diet was started. The control group in the experiment, on the other hand, saw only 14 fewer acne lesions.
