Right now
Early autumn is a golden time for exacerbation of acne. And it's not just the sun. An active business season begins, which means stress, unbalanced nutrition, emotional and hormonal changes. All this is reflected on the skin. If the proper care and the advertised products produced results, coping with the rashes would be easy. But the problem is that the origins of the disease are hidden deep inside. The scheme of the appearance of acne is well studied: the hair follicles are connected to the sebaceous glands, which produce secret, moisturizing the skin and hair. Normally, it should go out through the pores to the surface. Problems arise when sebum and dead cells accumulate in the passage. Pores turn into wells, up to the top clogged with what they should have long ago disposed of. And for all this with zeal, bacteria are taken. The result of their happy existence is inflammation on the skin. Most often, rashes appear in places of accumulation of sebaceous glands, and this is the face, neck, chest, back and shoulders. Despite the fact that the problems on the skin do not cause physical pain, they affect the mood and our self-confidence. In the treatment of acne use a standard set of funds - tonics with salicylic or glycolic acid, benzene peroxide, antibiotics and even birth control pills. While antibiotics affect bacteria, contraceptives lower the level of testosterone, the male sex hormone in the blood.
Holistic approach
Since there are no two identical people in nature, there can not be the same treatment schemes. Everyone needs his own approach. The reasons for the appearance of acne can be different, so it's good to get to the truth and find out what exactly the skin reacts to. As a rule, it simply reflects the processes that go deep inside. For example, failures in the excretory system. Part of the toxins are removed from the body through the skin, but the main load lies on the kidneys, liver and intestines. If one of them does not cope with their duties, the load on the skin increases. For example, the diet is a lot of fatty and sweet food, little fruit and vegetables. The intestine has difficulties, and the body tries to draw the skin to overtime work. That is, part of the "garbage" passes through it, the part settles along the road. To provoke an acne also intolerance of some products, for example grains.
In the shower
Buy a special sponge that will remove dead cells and stimulate renewal. But do not injure the areas where there are already rashes. The massage of the rest of the body will also benefit the problem areas, because it stimulates blood and lymph circulation, improves the delivery of nutrients, removes toxins.
In the hammock
If acne is to blame for stress, add positive moments to your life (spa, massage). Try meditation or other relaxing techniques - they are able to restore the good disposition of the Spirit. Pay more attention to the lymphatic system. It also plays a significant role in skin cleansing. The lymph travels in a vicious circle.
Without a pump
Her work depends solely on the activity of the muscles that stimulate flow. If the skin is a problem, you should definitely go in for sports, because moderate loads help the lymph better circulate through the body, collecting dirt.
Food as a medicine
Recent research shows that eating does not provoke acne. as was generally assumed before. However, eating wrong, you are unlikely to achieve the desired goal. The system is closed, weakness is not forgiven, so it is better to remove from the diet of refined foods and add fresh vegetables. Very useful protein, that is, fresh fish, white meat, legumes and grains.
What else should I put on the plate to help the body "cleanse"?
First, eggs, oysters, cheese and pumpkin seeds. For the simple reason that they are rich in zinc, which restores skin cells and regulates hormonal background.
Secondly, strawberries, citrus fruits, green leafy vegetables, cauliflower. Vitamin C, which is abundant in these products, activates the immune system and detoxifies the body.
Thirdly, bananas, avocados, porridges, where there is a lot of vitamin B. It is simply irreplaceable if the rashes are tied to the female cycle.
Fourth, carrots, peppers, spinach, broccoli and pumpkin. Vitamin A is responsible for cell renewal. And it protects the skin from damage (in the products of yellow-green color there are many antioxidants), strengthens immunity and creates unfavorable conditions for infections. In addition to vegetables, vitamin A is abundant in fish oil, dairy products and egg yolk. The perfect breakfast for the skin is scrambled eggs and fresh yogurt. Do not use scrub more than once a week. It removes the superfine fat layer. And this stimulates the work of the sebaceous glands, thereby worsening the problems on the face. For the same reason, it is best to avoid lotions containing alcohol.
