Milk and dairy products, they also are in the group of foods that create inflammation so it is best that you avoid them. If you just can not give up, try with skim milk and if you see that you do haven’t result stop to take on it. Of course you have to avoid all cheeses, unfortunately, a minimal form of lactose similar to that of cow may be present in cheese and goat’s milk, but it’s better than cow’s milk. Probiotics found in yogurt remove the lactose, but also pays attention to these products.
Another food to be consumed in moderation are red meat that may increase the risk of heart disease and it is better that you will limit the intake. If you drink wine, prefer the red wine, no more than two glasse per day, to take advantage of the ‘antioxidant effects of resveratrol, present in abundance. Do not abuse alcohol that increase the dehydration of your skin, causing increased skin dryness.
