Medical studies proved throughout the years the evident link between white sugar and diabetes, kidney and heart diseases. That was something communicated for the public 50 years ago, but people still use organic white sugar, claiming it is healthier which is not.
The consumption of sugar has also got an effect on your skin by triggering the acne, damaging collagen production and causing many other skin issues. It is hard, of course, to strike out added sugar from your diet, but you still can do so by replacing it by sweets rich in antioxidants.
Such sweets could be berries, dark chocolate, and honey. The latter has even extra antibacterial benefits.

Forget about cold smoking meat, organic cold cuts or any other processed meat. Try to opt for poultry for it is the best among all other processed meats. The production of collagen in your skin may be affected by the high saturated fats and sulfite, found in bacon, sausage, pepperoni, and hot dogs.
These fats may result in inflammation as well. Doctors advise meat consumers to always choose the leanest meats, like poultry, to mitigate the hazards represented by other processed meats. Why poultry? Well, mainly because it is very rich in amino acids and protein, which would not turn into extra fats later.
