For years, acne mainly plagued teens and those in their 20’s. We are now seeing it in people who are in their 30’s, 40’s, 50’s and even 60’s. Where does this dreaded plague come from? Acne may develop from a variety of things including hormones, stress, and unfortunately, your inherited genes.

Food choices are a huge factor contributing to this dreaded skin problem. What you eat directly and indirectly affects your acne. This is one factor that we can easily control by being mindful of what goes into our bodies. So, here are a couple of things to remember:

Take your vitamins. Multi-vitamins taken daily, are a good choice to fight acne. Acidophilus B. and garlic tablets are also good daily choices to help fight acne.

1. Take your vitamins. Whole foods multi-vitamins taken daily are a good choice to fight acne. Acidophilus B and garlic are also great acne fighters.
2. An apple a day. Eat red or golden delicious apples daily.
3. Drink water, water, water.
4. Clear is better. Soda drinkers, change to clear sodas. The ingredients that make sodas dark can make acne worse.
5. Go natural with your sweets. Too much refined sugar can aggravate acne. This means stay away from candy, sodas, cakes and pies! Try to use natural sweeteners, like honey or stevia!

Not only do we need to be cautious in making food choices, but we need to take care of our skin with good products! Here are a couple of ways to do that:

1. Don’t wash TOO much! Over washing your skin can stimulate the sebaceous glands, causing breakouts. Twice daily is enough!
2. Go BLUE! LED Blue light therapy greatly reduces acne-causing bacteria.
3. Clean sleep. When you are experiencing breakouts, change your pillow case daily.
4. Treat with tea tree. Tea Tree Oil is a great natural anti-bacterial apply to acne lesions, use as directed on bottle.
5. Be careful with the POP! When done incorrectly picking, mashing, squeezing your acne can cause more flair up.Using fingernails to “POP” pimples will cause scarring.
6. Opposite effect. Using antibiotics can actually increase the number of acne breakouts over time.
7. Don’t rely on THE PILL. Using birth control pills will only clear breakouts for a short period of time if at all, and may even cause breakouts.

There is not just a simple cure for acne. I wish there were. However, I am dedicated in helping you customize YOUR fight with acne! Call us at Seasons, 255-1155, for more information or to schedule an appointment.
