It sounds like the strings on your acoustic guitar are dirty. A large portion of acoustic guitar strings are made with bronze which tarnishes and turns green. Get a string cleaner that cleans both the top and bottoms of the strings, like this one. Use isopropyl alcohol for your cleaning solution and maybe a string lube like Fast Fret or Finger Ease if you like. Keeping your strings clean will not only keep your finger tips a normal color, but will prolong the life of your frets.
Some people just have sweaty hands. There is no diet that's going to change that. Washing you hands before practice is good advice. However, interrupting practice because hands gets sweaty is completely ludicrous to me. Interrupting the flow of practice for what purpose? I hope it's not for the longevity of strings.
Things like this, or this, or even this exist because some guitarist will have hands that is so sweaty that one practice session will be enough to leave gunk on the strings.
