When I was an adolescent
it was believed that a poor
diet contributed to aggravating
acne outbreaks. Now over twenty
years later I have read many
articles that stated that
diet has no effect at all
on acne. So in other words
diet as a natural treatment
for acne does not have a positive
or negative effect.
For years we have been told
we are what we eat and I believe
that our skin is a reflection
of our health and therefore
a natural acne treatment is
often a cure.
It is said that for many people
with other more severe outbreaks,
home remedies for acne are
not a solution for their problems.
This is usually encouraged
for the sale of expensive
medications to treat a problem
that could be taken care of
relatively inexpensively.
There are prescription acne
medications that you take
by mouth as well as prescribed
topical medications that may
help more serious acne problems.
Some of them work as a treatment
but never cure acne.
The problem with taking many
prescribed acne medications
is that they can have many
uncomfortable side effects
where as natural acne treatments
rarely have any at all. Sometimes
your body adjust to the acne
medications that you are taking,
however when you stop taking
acne medications your outbreaks
start all over again.
Herbal acne products and medications
normally do not have this
effect. Home remedies for
acne specifically tea tree
oil, Benzoyl peroxide and
good old fashioned tooth paste
worked better than the most
expensive prescribed acne
medications and you do not
have to worry about scarring
like you sometimes do with
harsh prescription acne medications.
People with severe acne problems
are often prescribed an aggressive
acne treatment using antibiotics
to take care of the bacteria
problem that may be causing
and aggravating their acne.
The problem with using Antibiotics
like tetracycline as an acne
treatment is your body builds
up an immunity over time to
the acne medication and no
longer works and causes more
bacteria to grow therefore
causing breakouts and often
worse than before. The good
thing is a natural acne treatment
may be the best because your
bodies immune system heals
itself.
It is best to make wise choices
when it comes to choosing
an acne treatment. Remember
that there are many wonderful
products on the market but
you have to be careful to
create for yourself the best
natural acne treatment for
you. Your skin may not respond
the same way to some treatments
for acne as it may have for
someone else. So be wise,
be watchful and be aware.
