Yeah. So it's not the caloric deficit or the caloric surplus. It's the glycemic index or the amount of insulin response. So we know that high High glycemic index foods will make acne worse. And almost every study that we've looked at in sugary processed foods will flare your acne.

There's some component of that inflammatory response that not only drives sebum production and bacterial growth, but actually worsens the skin's immune response. The skin's immune response is a little feisty when you're eating pro-inflammatory things. The other thing that I do hear a lot about is dairy. And there's this misconception that dairy causes acne.

What we really see when we looked at a really cool study that was done out of Penn State is that it's not so much whole fat dairy products, but skim and nonfat dairy products that can make your acne flare.

And the reason for that is that usually in the United States, there's an emulsifier that's put in nonfat or skim products to give the same mouthfeel as full fat so people feel like they're getting the same without the calories. And that has a glycemic response. So it's usually sugary foods, nonfat skim dairy products that will make your acne flare.

So rosacea, commonly known as adult acne, tends to come in four flavors. The first form is the redness form, what we call erythematotelangiectatic form, or the ruddiness, broken blood vessels, redness of the cheeks, and flushing. That's by and far the most common form. There's also the papulopustular form, which is the pimple form, which is what we think about in adult acne.

There's also the phymidus form, which is the enlargement of the nose that kind of looks like toad skin. We used to think it was a sign of alcoholism or sailors or construction workers that would have these enlarged nose. We thought it was a product of their environment that's actually a form of rosacea. And then there's ocular rosacea, which affects the eyes.

By and far, the two most common that we see people in practice for is the redness form, redness and flushing, or the pimple form. You're absolutely right in that alcohol can contribute to it and worsen it for two reasons. One, alcohol itself is a vasodilator and acetaldehyde is a much more potent vasodilator. So when you drink, you flush.
