The winter months aren't particularly kind to our skin. Bitter winds and cranked up central heating systems leave us with chapped lips, dry faces and unhappy hearts.
But rather than combatting these unfortunate seasonal drawbacks with fancy face creams and complicated skincare regimes, it turns out it might be best to care for our skin from the inside out.
"Every dermatologist will attest that a well-rounded diet will better support a healthy immune system," says Dr. Bobby Buka, who is based in New York City. "And will therefore result in fewer dermatologic conditions of all types."
"We've all heard of the allegedly 'forbidden' foods that supposedly trigger acne breakouts, such as fried foods, fatty foods, caffeine, nuts, chocolate and even red meat," says Dr. Neal B. Schultz, who is also in practice in New York City. "The reality is that in well-controlled statistical studies, these foods do not cause acne breakouts."
