Does a lot of sugar trigger acne ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Although foods such as chocolate have been suggested to cause acne, there has not been proof that acne is related to food. Of course , if you have noted worsening in acne after certain foods, you should avoid these foods regardless of the mechanism.
