Get Rid of Adult Acne ...

Adult acne is definitely an unpleasant thing to have, especially if you are a woman and care about how you look. If you are well above the teen age and suddenly start developing **blackheads** and **blemishes** on your face, which do not want to go away no matter how careful you are about your personal hygiene, read the following facts on what causes adult acne and what you can do to get rid of it.

What makes more than 60 millions of adults in the States (the vast majority of whom are women!) develop middle-age acne, while it is still a rare condition in more traditional societies? The answer is definitely in our industrial lifestyle, bad dietary preferences, and extreme environmental pollution. The basic causes are the following:**1. **Bad diet is number one cause of adult-onset acne. Bad diet, which robs us of essential nutrients and disrupts both digestive ecology and healthy hormonal balance, usually consists of the following:

- overconsumption (more than 100 grams a day) of carbohydrates, especially in the form of processed breads, pastas, sugar, sweets, soda pop, etc., which stimulates insulin production and severely worsens an acne condition;

- giving preference to newfangled vegetable oils, margarines, and trans fats in processed foods, instead of eating traditional animal fats with antimicrobial and hormone-stabilizing properties (coconut and marine oils, natural butter, cultured cream, etc.);

- eating non-organic meats and dairy products, which contain a big amount of residual hormones and other medication that are fed to the cattle on a regular basis. Consumption of such impure products is especially dangerous for women, because female hormones are very sensitive and can easily get out of balance due to foreign synthetic medication in the food. In time, this bad diet manifests as PMS, pregnancy complications, pathological menopause, and adult acne;

- eating mostly “dead”, cooked and processed, foods, which do not provide friendly bacteria for the digestive tract. It’s interesting to note that women who regularly eat natural yogurt, home-made pickles and unpasteurized sauerkraut, rarely suffer from adult acne.

Genes. Hereditary element can worsen adult acne, especially in severe cases of so-called “scarring acne”

4

Synthetic face-care products and makeup, which clog the pores and disrupt the acid-alkaline balance of the face skin. Needless to say that, if you want to have a clean skin, you always should opt for natural and preferably home-made creams and other beauty products for your face

What are the solutions?
Change your diet, use the best skin care products, and be patient - your body will need some time to restore the balance and cure your skin. A great natural approach to treating adult acne is described here.

However, if you want immediate results, you can try some of numerous acne medications (which usually just mask the symptoms and which I therefore do not recommend). Top acne treatment products can be found at review-acne-treatments.com, while information on homeopathic acne remedies you can find at therapy biogetica.com.

hello am 32 years old and i had acne since like 13 and never went away i have tried several treatments and nothing has worked what can u recomend lately is been the worst i will said so any adeas or treatments that u can recomend i cant stand it anymore

I have had acne since I was about 13...I'm 22 now. Tried everything, antibiotics, the pill...mine seems to be stress AND hormone related. I'm in the UK and I went to see a dermatologist. All he did was take one look at me and suggest I go onto roaccutaine, which is the one someone was talking about before, causes depression and lots of other things. The negatives outweigh the positives in my opinion. Not sure what else I can do for it now, my Mum suggested laser, so may be something to look into...but I don't see how that's going to stop them coming up? Am always looking for new products/advice to follow. Just hoping it either goes away, or I find something to stop it someday!

hello...just want to know what would bethe best product to use that u can advice...i never have problem in acne before until last nov(i was 27) ...and it s getting worse now...i try some product like neutrogena and clean and clear but nt working...

Hi Amanda, I had terrible problems with my skin for years until this summer when a girl-friend introduced me to Rodan and Fields Dermatologists UNBLEMISH. Within two weeks my acne went away completely and my skin has been clear ever since. I love the Rodan and Fields line so much that I have become a consultant. I am amazed at the results we are seeing from these incredible products. This doctor-developed approach combines real medicines and functional cosmetic ingredients to create elegant skincare products that ensure real change in the quality of your skin. It is so exciting to help other people to get and keep great skin. Thanks for the great stalking! I love the sight. Tracey

For acne issues you can even try natural cure like application of egg, infusion of tulsi leaves, poultice of sugar with small amount of water, and mixture of tulsi leaves with turmeric powder.

You know what? This article is so helpful. Everyone always tells me that diet has nothing to do with it. I don't buy it and I'm glad to see I'm not alone in this. Doesn't it make sense that what is inside you would reflect outward? That's just me but I am going to try to follow your steps. Unfortunately, I recently began breaking out here and there even though as a teen my skin was clear and smooth. It's depressing but I feel encouraged now that I can try to combat it without crazy procedures! :)
