Yogurt is a necessity for many families, especially children like to drink it. Yogurt can regulate the stomach and intestines. People with constipation can drink more yogurt. But can drinking yogurt get rid of acne? Strictly speaking, drinking yogurt has no direct effect on removing acne, but if the formation of acne is related to endocrine, yogurt can regulate the stomach and intestines well, speed up the body's detoxification, and the acne may disappear.

Yogurt is very nutritious and if we drink it regularly it is good for our health. I drink yogurt regularly. But acne is sometimes caused by many reasons. If we miss the good treatment method and opportunity because of lack of understanding, it will cause us lifelong regret. Acne is generally caused by the following reasons.

1. Insufficient skin cleansing leads to clogged pores and inflammation;

2. Lack of water leads to excessive secretion of sebaceous glands, coupled with inadequate cleaning;

3. Imbalance in hormone secretion, caused by excessive secretion of male hormones;

4. Constipation;

5. Like to eat fatty meat;

6. Skin care products are not suitable for the skin;

7. Caused by mites;

8. Due to decreased body resistance;

9. Certain organs in the body may be diseased. Also, don’t squeeze pimples with your hands, as this may leave acne marks, which will be difficult to remove later.

One reason is that excessive sebum secretion leads to clogged pores, and the other reason is endocrine disorders. Wash your face with warm water twice a day to reduce oiliness of the skin. The oiliness of the skin will decrease, and the chance of dust and other dirt falling on the skin and sticking to it will also decrease. Do not squeeze acne with your hands. Eat less fat and sugary foods, less fried foods, and irritating foods such as onions, garlic, and peppers. Eat more fruits and vegetables to prevent constipation and indigestion. Eat more fruits and vegetables, such as: apples, pears, tomatoes, watermelons, cucumbers, loofahs, winter melons, bitter melons, etc., but high-sugar fruits such as lychees, oranges, and durians should be eaten less.

The best time to drink yogurt :

1. Drinking after meals is beneficial for nutrient absorption

Typically talking, it’s best to consume yogurt thirty minutes to 2 hours after a meal. Under normal conditions, the pH value of gastric juice is between 1 and 3. When the stomach is empty, the gastric juice is acidic, with a pH value below 2, which is not suitable for the growth of active lactic acid bacteria in yogurt. Only when the pH value of the stomach is relatively high can the lactic acid bacteria in yogurt grow fully and be beneficial to health. About two hours after a meal, the gastric juice is diluted and the pH value rises to 3 to 5. Drinking yogurt at this time is most beneficial for absorbing the nutrients in it.

2. Drinking calcium supplement at night is the best

Yogurt is a good source of calcium in food. From the perspective of calcium supplementation, drinking yogurt at night has more benefits. Because the blood calcium content in the human body is the lowest from 12 o'clock in the evening to the early morning, it is conducive to the absorption of calcium in food. At the same time, there are fewer factors in the human body that affect calcium absorption during this period. Although milk also contains a high level of calcium, compared to it, the lactic acid contained in yogurt combines with calcium to promote calcium absorption.
