Question:
Dear Doctor, I would like to ask: “Is eating 2 boiled eggs daily harmful to the liver and causing acne on the face?” I am having a lot of acne on my forehead and both sides of my cheeks from my nose outward. I am unsure what is causing these breakouts. Could you please advise me on what I should eat to reduce acne? Thank you for your advice and response!

Answer:
Dear patient, it is normal to experience acne at your current age. However, eating 2 boiled eggs per day is not recommended because the egg yolk contains a high cholesterol level, which can affect metabolism. It is recommended to eat about 5 eggs per week. To reduce acne, you should regularly clean your skin, avoid staying up late, and maintain a diet rich in vegetables and low-sugar fruits.
