Can Peanut Butter Trigger Acne?

Peanut products can influence androgen levels. Androgens are male hormones also found in women, but in smaller amounts. When eaten consistently, or in excess, peanut products can increase your oil production and trigger acne breakouts. Multiple cases have shown, that acne patients who discontinue their daily intake of peanut butter experience remission of acne in 1 to 3 weeks. So, if you are prone to acne, keep your intake of peanuts, peanut butter and peanut oil to a minimum. Better yet, reach for the almond butter instead.
