A Natural Acne Remedy Brought to Us By the Old World...What is Acne? 
A natural acne remedy doesn't involve squeezing! Most often found on the face, neck or back, acne is spotty skin caused by the increase of higher hormone levels. These increased levels lead to the production of extra oil. The old and dead cells get clogged and some glands become inflamed, forming raised, red spots of pus-filled pimples.Acne is often worse in boys than girls. It tends to clear up in the late teens or early twenties. Some foods such as chocolate, cheese, and nuts make acne worse by aggravating it. Fizzy citrus drinks and junk food in general tend to irritate acne.
What Can Be Done to Reduce Acne? Get in plenty of sunlight. Vitamins A and B6 are recommended as added vitamin supplements. Wash the area containing acne two(2) times per day. Washing often will remove the excess oil and dead cells. Do not scrub problem areas as they can become infected and cause more problems. Natural and Homeopathic Remedies: -Drink 1-6 pints of carrot juice which can be given as a drink as well as applied to the affected area using a washcloth soaked in carrot juice or applied using a cotton ball. Carrot juice is known as a wonderful healer. When applying to the affected area, include the pulp. -Black walnut powdered leaves can be made into a poultice (mixed slightly with water) and applied directly to the problem area. The powder contains organic iodine that is much more antiseptic and healing than normal iodine. -Combine equal parts of burdock root and yellow dock (Rumex crispus) which can then be added to the affected area with water and used as a wash. The same can also be used as a tea. Either combined or using one method or the other, use it three(3) to four(4) times per day. Burdock is one of the best blood-cleansers in nature and it will not cause nausea.
