Causes of Acne

Do you know the
causes of acne?

Well you've reached puberty.  Now you're able to start growing a mustache, maybe even a little goat-tee. However, along with that mustache, comes acne... you know when you afflicted with bumps?

Were talking about the bumps of the blackhead, whitehead, and the blemish persuasion. You know, just good old-fashioned acne.

While we all hate it, but still so many of us are doused with it at puberty. What in the world are the causes of acne? Could it truly be chocolate?

By the way was that mystery ever unraveled? Unfortunately I don't believe it was.

However, in reality acne is caused by a number of things. Do you have any idea of what they are?  I didn't either.

Well, after doing some extensive research on my own, I think I have a better grasp on the pangs of pimples and what ignites breakout's on the faces of millions. Are you ready for a lesson in zits?

Back when I was a child, actually during my teen years.  Probably around 14 to be exact. I often wondered about the causes of acne.   There was all kinds of rumors, you know: Chocolate, cokes, and etc.  And of course there was the talk of hormones.  Which I really didn't understand.

I honestly had no idea why I got pimple and a some of my peers did not. Of course I was thankful I never acquired the out and out pizza face.  But I truly didn't want any blemishes at all.  I mean, who does?

I kept hearing that raging teen hormones were amongst the main causes of acne. Oh, and of course if you consume loads of chocolate, or drank lots of cola's. They were always a big ones.

However, I never fully understood acne until I hit about 20. Of course by then the World-Wide-Web was in full swing and there was oodles of information was at my fingertips.

It was definitely time to find out what the real causes of acne are. After many hours of surfing and reading professional opinions, I came to some truths regarding the causes of acne.

First of all, chocolate has nothing to do with anything.  Can you say Urban Legend?  However, teen hormones do play a part.

It seems that when we hit that puberty stage, our oil glands are going wild. This of course leads to oily skin, which can cause breakout's.  With the oily skin you better keep the face clean.

It all has to do with your pores. If they're clogged, then you'll probably acquire acne. Now, you really don't want to totally disregard diet.

Many people don't know it, but some of what we eat, excretes back through the pores of our skin. That could explain the foul odor some folks have.

Furthermore, you always want to drink lots of water. Living healthy will surely decrease your chances of breaking out.  Water will help flush out the system.

Then there's the skin care side. This is most certainly related to the primary causes of acne. If you're not properly taking care of your skin, then acne is probably inevitable.

You need to find that balance. Your face needs gentle care or it will become outraged and break-out.  But again don't be so gentle that you're not keeping your face clean.  If the pores get clogged, you're probably going to have problems.

Maybe the easiest way to start is to go online and see what products are available. 

The net has some of the best information available today.  Usually all of the latest information hits there first.

So check it out, and good luck.
