#5 Quinoa

You may not have expected to see this whole grain on our list, but we are here to let you know that it is indeed a helpful aid against acne.

A cup of this cooked grain will give you about 17 to 27 grams of fiber, which is going to help with getting rid of constipation and make sure you are getting rid of toxins from your body.

This will help with acne and dark spots, as well as clear up your skin.

What’s great about this whole grain is how versatile it is.

It works great as a fiber addition in salads or even as a side dish if you want to get some more variety into your meals and stop using potatoes and rice so much.

Even better, you can also use it as a substitute for wheat flour for any sort of baked goods you may want to make, from cookies to muffins.

And you can even try an alternative to burgers by trying to make a black bean and quinoa one!
