Can Your Diet Clear Up Your Skin?

Eat the Right Carbohydrates
Quinoa, whole grain items like Ezekiel Bread, and oatmeal are all great sources of fiber and complex carbohydrates. They keep you full, give you the right kind of energy, and provide you and your skin with important nutrients. Just try to nix the refined foods like white-flour pasta, processed bread and pastries.

I mostly agree. Greek yogurt is excellent for your skin and limit fruit due to the high sugar content. Get most of you antioxidants via veggies.

Gwen, what exactly are your nutrition credentials? I see you're a makeup artist. Do you have any real training and education in nutrition?
Advocating "getting rid of butter" is absurd. Saturated fat is healthy and good for the body. So is grass fed red meat (no need to limit it to once a week...where do you get this stuff?!).
Learn the facts about what really constitutes a "healthy" diet before spouting off old myths that have no scientific backing whatsoever (for your education, I suggest you google "Ansel Keys").
The myth that saturated fat (like butter and red meat) is "bad" has no factual scientific basis whatsoever.

You're saying to drink 8 glasses of water per day or 1/ hour and the very next article is warning of the life-threatening danger of doing just that! Please explain.
