Popping Zits

Pop A Zit
   
Think twice about popping zits. Popping zits can be beneficial and yes it removes them from your face, but the underlying consequence might be worse in the long run.

What in the world does that mean? Well when you pop a zit, you are forcefully breaking the clogged pore and the pus rushes out, breaking the clogged area. The problem is, your normally pop a zit with your hands and your fingers contain a lot of bacteria on them.

Get some of that bacteria inside your wound, and your zits are likely to spread even more. So make absolutely sure that when you begin popping zits, that your hands and face are sterile. Do this after you take a shower, rinse off your face, wash your hands, etc...

Popping zits is in fact not even recommended believe it or not. Many medical folks say to keep a hands-off approach and let your body heal itself. Through the use of regular daily washing and a healthy diet, your skin is going to get itself back to normal.

Now you can make fun of the whole 'diet and acne' theme, but truth of the matter is, diet plays a very important role in how healthy we are. Japan was in fact acne free for centuries and centuries because they ate foods that were high in omega-3 acids, they had lots of fish and seafood (fish oils), and they had plenty of fiber in their diet.

Food is what sustains our body to fight off disease. Acne is a disease. You can't think of it as just one isolated pimple. Your body need the nutrients to fight off clogged pores, and give your skin a healthy new look.

Speaking of skin, did you know that dead skin can cause your zits to swell? You need to thoroughly brush off your skin each day. As new sebum is produced within your body, it rises up through your skin and then mixes with dead, dry skin. This forms and hardens, leaving you with a big fat zit. So remember, a healthy diet, good washing, careful popping, and lots of water will take care of you.
