What food/drink does not aggravate rosacea?

Coffee
Spicy foods
Alcohol
Milk

The correct answer is: Milk

Milk is less likely to aggravate rosacea compared to the other options. While individual responses can vary, milk typically contains beneficial nutrients that can help soothe the body and can be tolerated by many individuals with rosacea. In fact, some people find that dairy products can have a calming effect on their skin. On the other hand, coffee, spicy foods, and alcohol are common triggers for those with rosacea. Coffee contains caffeine, which may cause blood vessels to dilate and lead to flushing. Spicy foods are known for their ability to increase body temperature and stimulate circulation, both of which can exacerbate rosacea symptoms. Alcohol, particularly red wine, is widely reported to cause flare-ups due to its ability to dilate blood vessels and increase skin redness. Therefore, opting for milk may provide a safer choice for individuals with rosacea looking to manage their condition.
