What is the best wedding diet for acne prone skin?
Chances are, if you’re reading this blog posts, you’re here for the clear skin tips. Is that you? You’ve come to the right place for all things clearing acne and getting that glow. I’m Sisley – North America’s leading acne focused Registered Holistic Nutritionist – here to help you clear your acne naturally.
Whether you’re a bride-to-be or not, I think you’re going to love this post.
Here is everything I ate (and didn’t eat!) leading up to my wedding.
My food “rules” for 3 months leading up to my wedding date:
1. Absolutely NO meals skipped. Restriction (for menstruating women specifically) often just leads to imbalanced blood sugar, cravings for junky foods, horrible mood swings and can even cause disruption to our hormones, gut and skin long term. Avoiding hunger cues can “shut off” our ghrelin and leptin signals long term, which can seriously f*ck with our metabolism, blood sugar and therefore our skin. I made a promise to myself to get my glow up in a healthy way.
2. Eat slowly (be the last person at the table to finish your meal). Eating slowly allows for our body to properly chew, digest our food and absorb nutrients effectively. This is a simple hack to support metabolism, get nutrients up for glowing skin and to avoid bloat. I made a promise to myself to eat slowly with no distractions.
3. Eat primarily whole foods. I wanted to feel and look my best so I made a promise to myself to stick to real, whole foods and avoid packaged foods (yes, even healthy ones) as much as possible. This was a great way to beat bloat and get nutrients up! For example:
– Instead of a protein bar, I ate a piece of steak
– Instead of a bag of chips, I snacked on carrots
– Instead of going to a cafe, I made a matcha at home
I put heavy emphasis on high quality whole foods, which felt fun, easy and my skin looooved it.
So what did I NOT eat?
I avoided all refined sugar (check ingredient labels!), refined wheat products (🥯🍞🥖) and cow’s dairy (🥛🧀) for 2 months leading up to the wedding to reduce bloat + breakouts (I’m super sensitive to all these foods).
I avoided processed foods: this is something I do anyways but I was super conscious of limiting healthy processed foods and sticking to WHOLE FOODS instead to feel my best!
So what DID I eat?
I included high QUALITY protein at every meal: foods like grass fed beef, wild salmon, pasture raised lamb, chicken & eggs, tofu & tempeh to keep blood sugar STABLE, support detox pathways and get my minerals up.
I included fiber at every meal: lots of organic fruit like oranges, berries, banana, kiwi and organic veggies like broccoli, pumpkin, sweet potato
I added liver loving foods to every meal: my go-to’s are arugula and cilantro (biiig handfuls of each are a daily thing for me always)
