Is it true that high sugar intake is linked to acne?
Unclear. A 2022 systematic review reports that high glycemic index and glycemic load are positively associated with acne, and a 2024 review notes high-glycemic-index diets can exacerbate acne; a 2024 paper only hypothesizes a link between high sugar consumption and adolescent acne severity. These sources support a related but narrower claim about glycemic load rather than high sugar intake itself.
