How To Prevent Acne

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

One question that has been constantly plaguing people for a long time is how to prevent acne. Some of the first human beings undoubtedly wondered at the stars and suns, contemplated their existence, their greater purpose, and how to prevent acne from occurring once and for all.

Today, we still wonder the same things, and its clear we haven’t really made many advances toward answering them.

[Acne problems: How to prevent them]

Learning how to prevent acne has been a process I’ve been mastering since I was a teenager. Over the years I’ve come to realize one sorry and unfortunate fact; acne seems to be impossible to prevent completely.

Even though I can prevent about 90% of the acne from happening, there is still that 10% left and that’s still a pretty big window.

There are a lot of different theories out there on how to prevent acne, and while I suspect that most of them are at least partly right, none of them works completely for everyone.  The theories on how to prevent acne seem to fall in three different categories; diet, stress, and skin care.

Of all the different ideas on how to prevent acne, the ones based on changing your diet seem the least effective for me.  It doesn’t seem to matter even in the slightest what I’m eating.

I could be eating nothing but the finest, healthiest foods, and still get massive outbreaks.  Stress and skin care are much better areas to focus on in acne prevention in my experience.

Skin care seems to get the most attention as a way to prevent acne, and probably for good reason. Using an acne face wash and an acne body wash every day does indeed seem to go a long way to reducing my outbreaks.

However, I think stress is underestimated as a cause of acne.  Of all the theories I’ve examined on how to prevent acne, the ones that deal with lowering stress levels are the most effective for me in the long run.

Even though there might not be a direct link between being active and exercise, measures like these are said to lower the amount of stress a person feels, thus indirectly affecting or preventing acne. Exercise seems to be a good way to prevent everything bad in life, doesn’t it?

Not only are you preventing acne in a roundabout way, but you are also preventing cancer, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and you’re boosting your body’s ability to fight off many other diseases as well.  Incidentally, all of these diseases also seem to have a stress component to them.
