By User ImageAdmin On September 17, 2008 NO COMMENTS

In order to effectively treat acne, you need to be aware of what factors can cause or aggravate your condition. You’ve no doubt heard the common myths that eating chocolate or oily foods causes acne.

While a healthy diet is recommended, there is no one specific food that causes acne outbreaks. Learning to recognize the facts from the myths is essential when dealing with acne.

Although acne can affect people of all ages, it’s most predominant in teens and young adults in their early twenties. Once a person reaches the age of 25, their chances of developing acne or suffering from additional outbreaks will drop dramatically. For adults in their mid-thirties or older, the risk of acne is even less. Many cases of adult acne are the result of a hormone imbalance.

Cure Adult acne with ClearPores

By User ImageAdmin On October 16, 2007 NO COMMENTS

Although the media rarely talks about it, acne is one of the biggest skin problems faced by adults. As many as 25 percent of all adult men and 50 percent of adult women suffer from acne outbreaks at some point in their lives. However, the rest are not spared the trouble associated with an occasional pimple or blackhead. The main cause for these late outbreaks is either the environment and food, flare-ups of acne cured in the 20s or simply the emergence of a whole new case of acne in people who have never suffered from it before.

It is believed that adult acne is caused by the overproduction of hormones in the body, which is why most treatments focus on lowering the level of hormones.
