Control Your Acne

Acne is not caused by a bacterial infection, but bacteria are responsible for making acne worse. When oil is trapped in the hair follicles, the normal skin bacteria, P.acnes, will grow and multiply in the blocked pore. 

 

If you want to control acne breakouts, you need to supplement your diet with fish oils which contain omega-3 and omega-6 oils. These fish oil also contains EPA and DHA fatty acids which are necessary for creating prostaglandins. 

 

The P.acnes bacterium produces chemicals which alter the composition of the sebum. These chemicals make the sebum more irritating to the skin and causes inflammation. 

 

Acne is a common skin condition that is not restricted to any age group or sex. Acne may appear for any length of time. But one should not forget that Acne is not a disease and can surely be cured!
