I have a painful zits on my forehead. is this because of my bad diet?

Not likely: The primary causes of acne are stress, heredity and hormones. Diet plays a very minor role if any at all. In very specific circumstances such as a high milk intake in young women and a very high sugar intake diet have been implicated in causing acne. That is not to say that a bad diet is a good thing for your overall health status. Time to eat healthy.
