Here is the url for the National Rosacea Society of America. There should be good information there, and contact addresses to find out information. You are not alone: 14 million Americans alone have rosacea. http://www.rosacea.org/index.php According to the site, here are foods and beverages to watch out for: Tripwires - Foods and Beverages Steaming hot soup or coffee, spicy nachos, a glass of wine -- no matter how appetizing they sound, these foods and beverages may be a problem for some rosacea sufferers. Hot liquids may cause flushing. Spicy foods like oriental mustard sauce or salsa can raise a sweat, and alcoholic beverages may trigger flare-ups in many cases. These tips will help you select rosacea-friendly meals: Monitor how your rosacea reacts to alcoholic beverages. Alcoholic beverages often induce flare-ups in rosacea sufferers. If alcohol aggravates your condition, reduce your intake or avoid alcohol entirely. Avoid "hot" spices such as white and black pepper, paprika, red pepper and cayenne, which are common rosacea tripwires. Try these flavor substitutes: Chili powder -- 2 tsp cumin, 1 tsp oregano. Poultry seasoning -- 1/2 tsp sage, 1/2 tsp coriander, 1/4 tsp thyme, 1/8 tsp allspice, 1/8 tsp marjoram. Curry powder -- 4 tsp coriander, 2 tsp turmeric, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp cumin, 1/2 tsp basil or oregano, 1/2 tsp cardamom. Reduce the heat in beverages. Decreasing the temperature may be all that's necessary to keep enjoying coffee, tea and hot chocolate, for example. Or try reducing the number of cups you drink from three or four to one or two instead. Identify and avoid any foods that aggravate your individual condition. Some rosacea sufferers have reported a wide variety of foods that trigger flare-ups in their individual cases. Examples have included cheese, sour cream, yogurt, citrus fruit, liver, chocolate, vanilla, soy sauce, yeast extract (though bread is OK), vinegar, eggplant, avocados, spinach, broad-leafed beans and pods, and foods high in histamine or niacin. Taking an antihistamine about two hours before a meal may counter the effects of histamine, while aspirin may reduce the effects of niacin-containing foods in sufferers affected by these substances.
