Guest guest Posted January 23, 2002 Report Share Posted January 23, 2002 Matija, You have been very successful in keeping your rosacea pale with cooking vegetables. Have you noticed worsening with red meat or any poultry or fish (lean cold water ocean) The list of triggers I hopelessly lost has broad leaf beans - I never figured out what they are. Have you tried cooked sprouts - any reaction. Brussel sprouts. My redness went out of control with added veggies like chard, collard greens, mustard greens,etc. Equally bad. Is bok choy as in the onion family ok with you? Anybody who reacts to eggs tried just whites? Does it make a difference? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 23, 2002 Report Share Posted January 23, 2002 , Yes, I'm still successful with using the vegetables in helping to keep my face pale. If I go a few days without my vegetable soup, my face does look blotchier. I've read a study on the elderly which determined that those who ate the most vegetables/fruits had the least amount of UV skin damage. Maybe that's why it's working. Also, I've read that red/purple cabbage has the same inflammation-reducing phytochemicals which grapeseed extract has. I do put red/purple cabbage in my soup from time to time and it does seem to do the trick. The taste is a bit bitter, though. I don't have any problems with brussel sprouts or other cruciferous veggies. I don't like the taste of swiss chard at all, so I don't know if that would make my skin worse or not. Yes, I do eat beef and poultry and don't notice any worsening. I don't like fish that much. I did watch Dr. Perricone's Wrinkle Cure special on our local PBS station over the weekend. He claims that sugar, simple carbs, and high glycemic foods can cause inflammation in skin. The way to reduce that inflammation is to eat fat with each meal (preferably olive oil or nuts), some protein and veggies or fruit. He claims that the EFA in salmon is great at reducing inflammation. He did inspire me to buy some salmon and I've eaten it twice this week so far. (I believe salmon is a cold-water fish. Please correct me if I'm wrong.) My skin seems to look nicer after I've eaten it, but it's really too early to tell. I don't eat any other kind of fish so I don't know if it would hurt or help. If you want a listing of foods that can cause the body to create high levels of histamine, the NRS has one.
