If you want to know how to get rid of bad acne and feel like you’ve tried everything, there is hope.

Over-the-counter products simply don’t work for many people when it comes to acne, especially the more stubborn kinds…

I know, because for over half my life I had severe cystic acne. It was awful, so I know how you feel. It sucks.

…but after 12 long years, I am finally 100% clear without using any pills or topicals. Here’s a few tips on how you can do it too:

• Learn how diet affects acne

It doesn’t matter if your dermatologist or doctor told you that acne isn’t caused by diet, thousands of people including myself can attest otherwise! Numerous studies have shown that people in certain countries simply don’t get acne because their diet isn’t like ours, such as the kitivan islanders. Learn how diet affects acne and you can get clear.

• Stop putting harmful chemicals…

Body acne treatment and back acne treatment, what to do and what to not. How is body acne different from facial acne? There are no difference at all. Acne on all parts of the body also forms the same way as facial acne, through overactive sebaceous glands which produces excess oil, grime, and dirt which clogs up the pores and thus forming acne just like on your face. Body acne is usually found on people’s chest, shoulders, arms, and back mainly, but they do happen everywhere too. Your neck, abdomen, legs, and even BUTTOCKS can have them.

The worst of body acne are on backs. Our backs are very pore sensitive just like our face. Every time we sweat, the sweat irritates our skin with all the oil and dirt and that is why we bath asap after doing sports to keep ourselves clean. One way to minimise or prevent perspiration…

There are two schools of thought on acne. One is that it’s impossible to cure and you simply need to deal with the symptoms until you ‘grow out’ of it. The other school of thought isn’t as popular because it won’t make the pharmaceutical companies money.

So what is it? Acne IS curable through diet, exercise, and supplementation. Period. End of story. I know because I had acne for 13 years and the only thing that ever worked for me for good was changing certain lifestyle habits.

So if you’re looking for a miracle pill, you’ve come to the wrong place. You will have to have discipline and a certain amount of motivation if you want to succeed here.

Let’s start with diet. Most people think just chocolate and fried foods cause acne, but this could not be further from the truth. There are many foods that promote inflammation (one of the major…

Back Acne Causes

It is often difficult to pinpoint the exact causes of most types of acne, back acne is no different. What is known is that irritation can make it worse. If acne is showing up more persistent in certain parts of your body, such as your back, perhaps it has to do with certain clothing or maybe a backpack. Tight fitting clothing contributes to promoting acne, by trapping sweat against the skin and clogging pores. Sometimes back acne is just caused by a hormone unbalance or poor diet.

Back Acne Treatment

The first part of controlling back acne is cleanliness; you should wash daily with a cleanser that contains salicylic acid. You should also shower immediately after engaging in any physical activity in which you were sweating. Follow up your shower with a body moisturizer that contains Alfa Hydroxy acid. This will exfoliate skin and help prevent breakouts, without drying skin…
