Inflammation causes skin tissue to break down, leading to a loss of collagen and elastin - the magic ingredients for young-looking skin. It also causes redness, flaking, roughness and spots, which certainly will not knock any years off of our appearance.
Inflammatory foods include those high in sugar or saturated fats, such as:
1. Bacon
2. Sweets
3. Refined carbohydrates (pasta, bread, bagels)
4. Soda
6. White sugar
7. Fried foods
