Anyone who has suffered from acne knows how scarring it can be both physically and emotionally. Not everybody reacts well to the medications currently on the market for acne. In this case, it might be worth looking into a home remedy for acne or alternative methods.

Foods high in saturated fat and also foods high in sugar and refined carbs are a possible cause of acne. Although some people don’t agree on this, there is a lot of evidence pointing in this direction.

People who have acne and have cut down on eating greasy foods, will tell you how it has helped them. On the net, you can find people’s testimonials attesting to this. Furthermore, many will also tell you how much stress and lack of sleep contributes to flare ups of their acne.

Personally, I think it is a good idea to avoid these foods as one aspect of your acne treatment to see if it can help. Also, these foods should be avoided for a variety of other health reasons.

Nutrition for the skin however, is a less controversial subject.

One of the most important nutrients for the skin is vitamin A. If there isn’t enough vitamin A in your diet, cracked, dry and rough skin can result. Vitamin A also helps reduce the amount of sebum produced in the skin – the oily substance secreted by the sebaceous glands. If there is too much sebum then your pores get blocked!

Getting enough vitamin E is essential for a healthy immune system. It also works with vitamin A to produce dermatological beneficial effects. You will find both vitamin A and E in facial creams. Vitamin E also helps to reduce the production of sebum.

Zinc can be helpful in preventing inflammation and flare ups in the skin. Zinc is also an important mineral needed for skin to heal and to reduce the effects of scarring.

Juicing:

Juicing produce is a great way to provide yourself with the above nutrients. Getting the nutrients you need from real food sources increases their digestibility considerable as compared to vitamin and mineral supplements. Furthermore, juicing is also a good way to help hydrate the skin.
