Anyone else suffer from adult acne?

i still get spots even though i am 32. has anyone any tried and tested cures?|||Hi Wonderwoman





Here are some real answers on skin conditions. Remedies at the bottom. Cleansing the body of toxins is the key. Especially a colon cleanse! Educate yourself on detoxifying the blood.





Judyth Reichenberg-Ullman N.D. - %26quot;What is your skin trying to tell you? Often the skin is a metaphor for deeper issues and a way for your body to send up a red flag to warn you that all is not well underneath. When our skin is unhealthy it is usually a reflection of the internal state of our bodies, and is often a sign of poor elimination of toxins and waste products. Most of us are embarrassed by skin problems such as rashes, rosacea, boils or acne, especially in places where others can see our imperfections. The skin is the body%26#039;s first line of defense against the environment. It has to deal with the effects of weather, sun , cold, heat, dryness, humidity, scrapes, bumps, soaps, detergents, chemicals, perspiration and dirt of all kinds. It is a wonder that our skin stays healthy most of the time! We can help our skin deal with this onslaught by optimizing our general health and by protecting our skin from harsh environmental exposure. Western medicine generally treats skin eruptions with either antibiotics, cortisone, or antifungal preparations. These medicines may alleviate the skin problem temporarily, or occasionally for good, but do not address the source of the problem. Putting a lid on skin symptoms without getting to the root of the imbalance may even result in suppression, that means the imbalance may be driven deeper causing more serious health problems later without ever strengthening the underlying vital force of the person. Fortunately, naturopathic medicine offers a wide vareity of effective treatments for skin problems.%26quot;





Judyth Reichenberg-Ullman N.D. - %26quot;Your skin is a reflection of how well your body is eliminating the toxins that build up on a daily basis. Chronic skin conditions such as acne, eczema and psoriasis stem from a combination of genetic factors, immune stress, dietary deficiencies or sensitivities, and the accumulation of toxins in the body. For our skin to be radiant and clear, it is very important that the other organs of elimination (kidneys, liver, lungs, and colon) are cleansing the body effectively. If not, the skin will be overtaxed, pores will become clogged, and eruptions of one sort or another will result. Here are a number of steps you can take to improve your body%26#039;s overall elimination wtih specific emphasis on your skin.%26quot;





Detoxification is a normal body process of eliminating or neutralizing toxins through the colon, liver, kidneys, lungs, lymph and skin. Juice Fasting is the world%26#039;s most ancient and natural healing mechanism. Fasting triggers a truly wondrous cleansing process that reaches right down to each and every cell and tissue in the body.

Natural Cures





1. Fruits and Vegetables for Acne: Carrot %26amp; spinach, celery %26amp; watercress, grapefruit juices are all useful to combat acne.





2. Unwholesome Foods: Acne, a prevalent problem among teen-aged boys would not be possible in our society if our foods were wholesome. A most sad and disgusting sight is the pus-filled pimples due to inner toxicity --- wastes trying desperately to escape through the face. This condition often turns a gentle face in the blossom of youth into a waste dump of pimples, pus and subsequent pock marks which can be prevented. The tons of acne medications and prescriptions sold annually act only on the effect of the harmful food, and not the cause of the disease, malnutrition. The traditional teenage meal, a grease burger, french fries and a milk shake or cola simply does not provide enough nourishment for anyone, let alone a boy going through puberty to adulthood. Our highly processed foods are devoid of hormones found in fresh fruits, vegetables, grains, nuts and seeds. Must do a colon cleanse to rid of all the toxins in the body, which eventually get into the blood and cause acne and all other diseases.





3. Cabbage: Apply a lotion of freshly prepared cabbage juice preceded, if desired, by the application of leaves. The eating of cabbage leaves or juice is also helpful.





4. Lemon Juice: Skin problems such as acne... will often respond to a treatment of lemon juice. For blackheads rub lemon juice over them each night.





5. Black Walnut: Externally, Black Walnut is nearly a miracle worker in cases of ...acne, dandruff, boils, itch, shingles, ringworm--we could go on, but you can see that you can use Black Walnut whenever a skin disorder appears! The tincture is an excellent first-aid remedy for wounds.





Best of health to you|||yep i%26#039;m 22 and my acne should be gone 2 years ago but i got allergic to a product and have been having little cogged pores for 7 months now. i%26#039;m seeing a dermatologist and he gave me benzoy peroxide, claramide(sp??), salycylic acid and it is doing better now. he will put me on roaacutane next week depending on the results i have with his medication. but please dont try over the counter products around as you do not know which is good and which is not and could risk more breakouts. a dermatologist would know your skin better than an MA over the counter.|||there are steps which helped no end and cheap to as its a constant thing to keep at way, as you know. First when you bathe try dettol, a couple of caps fulls in the bath, this kills germs that our bodies carry and cleanse the skin. After put e 45 cream on it works for all kinds of skin complaints that the Doctor recommends to most to try. Also wash hands all the time this sounds simple but think of the dirt that we carry from touching this transfers onto our skin. Then a daily routine of drinking at least 2litres of water to flush the system. And mulliti vitamin every day. I know it sounds hard but its all easy creaming takes two minutes, pop a vitamin pill one minute and drink the water through out the day and eat less sugar and grease. I have no spots i follow a two minute routine and i have great skin for my age and look younger.In fact i have my children doing it now. And if you suffer stress this will only increase the problem so try to relax at night so you get a good night sleep. I fell ill and was in hospital i did not do all of this and had spots, life style and what we eat and drink plays a huge part in this. Take care|||yes, I think it might have been hormonal for me, I%26#039;ve used proactive solution, and I don%26#039;t break out any more, and stick to mineral makeup, everything else makes me break out, good luck|||try soem vitamin C tablets. take over the recommended intake for a while then go to the normal dose. it should clear your skin up. multivitamins would be good, but seperate C tablets are good.|||Having been plagued by acne, and tried several remedies, I was finally referred to a Dermatologist when in my forties. He put me on Roaccutane (spelling?). I think I was on it for about six months and some of the side effects were unpleasant, but what a job it did on the acne! I used to get it worst on my face, neck and back and had scarring as a result. Now, some 12 years later, I get only the occasional pimple but NOTHING, compared to what I had.


I was extremely self concious about the acne and seldom went to the swimming baths or took my shirt off in public. People don%26#039;t realise how badly it can affect some people.


Do see your doc and push for a consultation with a dermatologist. Not everyone, or every type of acne, will be suited to this drug, but you can only try. Good luck|||i do but not real bad am 33 my name is bob i think i get them from to much pop as far as cures not sure have you been streesed out if so dont be if you like to talk you may tex me at 586-354-6333 i can send you some pic to chear you uo|||for all my spots i use oxy gel its new and you can get it in superdrug it reduses redness in 8 hours as well. nothing else has worked but this give it a go. i have used it for a week and seen great results.|||Nope, I%26#039;ve tried everything.





I%26#039;m 37 and none the wiser.





Still, I have tried not drinking milk (now drink goats milk, but to no effect)





My only advise, and please email me if you don%26#039;t need it, is to stop drinking and not eat before going to bed.





Good luck xx|||I%26#039;ve still get acne even though I drink enough liquids,eat the right foods,bathe,etc. ! I%26#039;m in my 60s!We%26#039;re doomed I tell ya ,We%26#039;re doomed! All joking aside ,some of us are destined to be prone to skin problems .Sorry, you%26#039;re one of them (welcome to the club)but at least you can cover it up with make-up.|||I have acne and I tried Proactiv and it really worked and trust me I have tried EVERYTHING. If it doesn%26#039;t work for you, you can get your money back.|||its not about ur diet.just ur insides.im 18 am using benzoyl peroxide and differin cream and seems to be working fine.|||I suggest of consulting a doctor because the cause can be hormonal. ok?





I don%26#039;t write very well because I%26#039;m italian...sorry:-)|||i get a spot or two around my chin every period, and i%26#039;m 27.


so i know they%26#039;re hormonal. but they don%26#039;t really bother me yet.





look at whether any female relations in your family were/are the same. my mum had the same as me.





if like me they%26#039;re hormonal answer is to address your hormone levels, where you should see a doctor for advice. But i have heard that evening primrose oil or starflower oil can calm hormone levels.|||i have tried everything on the market,freederm from the chemist is my best friend for those stubbon zits!|||If like my uncle he sits on the toilet and picks his off his bum
