5- High Glycemic Index Carbs
Bread and pasta prepared with refined white flour have a high glycemic index, which means they raise your blood sugar quickly. That sets you up for a high followed by a crash, a cycle that will undoubtedly show on your face. Refined carbohydrates have been shown to accelerate skin aging and cause blemishes such as acne and rosacea.
Consume whole wheat products instead. They are more filling than refined carbohydrates, and they can lower blood pressure and your risk of chronic illnesses such as type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Another option is to be creative and eat pasta made from beans and bread prepared from ground flaxseeds.
