Your sebaceous glands receive orders from the hormones sent out by your hormonal system to maintain the wellbeing and functionality of your body. The hormone that triggers the sebaceous glands under your skin to secrete sebum is androgen. When your sebaceous glands react by releasing sebum to your face / skin, the sebum is used to remove dead skin cells. When you have sensitive sebaceous glands, which means often times they overwork by releasing too much sebum, the sebum will combine itself with the dead skin cells and other dirts and dust in your pores to become a sticky mixture. The outcome of this is blocked pores.
Hum? Then I ran across an article by my favorite health advocate, Mike Adams of NaturalNews. He mentions in the article how a zinc deficiency may be a cause of acne. Maybe my feeble attempt at a new vegan lifestyle was leaving me a bit short in the zinc department? After reading up on the signs of zinc deficiency, I decided to pump up my intake of oysters and pumpkin seeds to see if it would help. Results? Enough of a difference in my skin to look deeper into zinc.
Hygiene is also one of the most important factors that a program for serious skin care acne sufferers should have. Keeping the skin clean at all times and using non-comedogenic and hypoallergenic cosmetics on your skin are some of the ways to keep acne at bay. Washing the face with a mild facial wash or cleanser to remove any dirt before going to bed is also a very effective routine to follow if you want to keep pimples and other such troublesome breakouts away.
