In older people ACNE ROSACEA, a similar inflamed facial rash, can also respond to zinc and may be helped by avoiding certain foods. These include alcohol, caffeinated beverages, cheese, pickled foods and, sometimes, chocolate. This diet is virtually identical to that used in the treatment of migraine and it is thought that these foods, which are rich in amines, somehow influence the blood vessels in the skin of those with acne rosacea.

Rosacea
The incidence of migraine headaches and flushing accompanying rosacea points to some form of food intolerance.

Stansbury responds: Rosacea is a chronic and progressive dilation of cutaneous capillaries affecting the nose and central face that most commonly afflicts women between the ages of thirty and fifty. Rosacea may accompany various autoimmune diseases that inflame the capillaries, and may also accompany alcoholism and other conditions associated with vascular congestion and inflammation. Vasodilating substances and stimulants such as caffeine, alcohol, and excessive sun should be avoided. Food allergies, constipation, portal congestion, and low stomach acidity may occasionally contribute to the condition, as may pancreatic insufficiency and an inability to digest fats due to a lipase insufficiency. Some rosacea patients benefit from restricting animal fats, processed fats, and other fats, while supplementing with essential fatty acids—a therapy known to benefit eczema, seborrhea, and other forms of dermatitis, which are often concomitant complaints. Although the underlying cause or trigger is often a mystery, you should search for any contributing inflammatory processes in the body. If you have allergies (i.e. hayfever or asthma), you should start by eliminating all food allergens possible (
das ist in Ordnung!!!!!!) and supplementing anti-allergy substances (essential fatty acids and antioxidant vitamins
->
das kann “voll daneben gehen!!!)). If there are any digestive difficulties, consider hydrochloric acid and/or pancreatin supplements. If you have a blood vessel disorder (migraines, Raynaud’s syndrome, phlebitis, etc.), work on reducing the reactivity in all blood vessel walls with bioflavonoids, rutin, quercetin, vitamin C, and appropriate herbs, such as feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium), berries (Vaccinium spp.), and hawthorn (Crataegus spp.). If you have evidence of blood vessel congestion, such as liver problems, constipation, varicose veins, or hemorrhoids, simply getting the blood moving more may reduce the inflammation in the microcirculatory vessels. Blood movers include yarrow (Achillea millefolium) and dong quai (Angelica sinensis).

Nutrition: Are food allergies ruining your skin?

Your complexion can reveal a lot more about your health than simply whether you are dehydrated or have spent too much time in the sun. In fact, how your skin looks can be a strong indication of whether you're making the best food choices for your body. That's because food allergies and intolerances can compromise the digestive and immune systems, giving rise to acne, eczema, rosacea, and other bothersome skin conditions.
Food allergies and food intolerances are not the same, but they can both wreak havoc on the skin. A food allergy arises when the body mistakes a protein, starch, or other component of a food as a foreign invader. To combat the allergen, the immune system releases disease-fighting antibodies and other chemicals, including histamine, in an effort to expel the "invader" from your body. In addition to causing potentially life-threatening symptoms such as shortness of breath, the release of histamine can produce hives, blemishes, or the inflammation and itching associated with eczema.
A food intolerance, on the other hand, can arise because a person lacks the enzymes necessary to properly digest certain proteins found in food, as is the case in lactose intolerance,
(
ähem…Laktose ist ein Kohlenhydrat, kein Protein !)
or their body simply cannot break down certain food components such as the flavor enhancer monosodium glutamate (MSG) or the sulfites that are often in red wine. These toxic, undigested food particles then move through the gut wall into the bloodstream and are finally filtered through the liver and kidneys -- a process that is quite taxing on the body and has been linked to the occurrence of acne and eczema.
Although even the most common food allergens -- shellfish, peanuts, and eggs -- are thought to only affect about one percent of adults, food intolerances are much more common and on the rise. If you think your skin problems might be a product of your diet, try keeping a food diary of what you eat to correlate with any symptoms. Or, ask your healthcare practitioner about skin or blood tests that pinpoint your personal trigger foods.
