6. Alcohol

While there are many foods that help with rosacea symptoms, there are also several that increase symptoms and flare-ups. Alcohol, a known irritant, increases inflammation of the skin. Research suggests this is the result of a histamine response, which triggers rosacea symptoms. If someone wants to drink, studies suggest that beer produces the least inflammation due to the anti-inflammatory compounds found in hops.
