Lifestyle changes to reduce acne

Acne is formed when the openings of hair follicles and skin pores are congested with dirt or oil matters (sebum) leading to the accumulation of dead skin cells and allow bacteria to grow.

Many factors may contribute to the development of acne, including:

  • genetics
  • diet
  • stress
  • hormone changes
  • infections
Acne can be a relentless condition that needs medical treatment, for others changing lifestyle and nutrition may provide an antidote or help ease the condition.
De-stress yourself
The most important thing you can do in terms of preventing or minimizing acne is to decrease stress in your life. The amount of oil (or sebum, as doctors call it) in your skin is directly influenced by stress. Anything you can do to decrease stress — by relaxing, being more mindful, focusing on wellness and exercising — all decrease levels of cortisol, lower stress, and reduce acne.
Get adequate sleep
If you don’t get good, restorative sleep, your body might not feel rested and could kick-start that cortisol surge, which could put you at risk for more acne.
The fix is simple, but not always easy: Make sleep a priority to give your body the rest it needs and your acne a chance to heal. And of course, you should always take all your makeup off before you go to bed.Exercise on a regular basis

Don’t give up on exercise. Many acne sufferers stop exercising because sweating seems to make it worse. Exercise will keep you healthy and can help unblock your pores by making you sweat. Just make sure you wash straight after exercise, preferably before the sweat has had time to dry.

Have a proper diet

Almonds, blueberries, avocados and kidney beans are among a range of foods which may help to reduce and prevent inflammation. This may make your skin less likely to develop the painful and inflamed spots that can make life miserable.

Dont forget to hydrate 

Water is essential for all of your bodily functions and this includes the liver which controls hormone production. Hormones play a part in acne by increasing sebum production, this is why acne often presents in teenagers who go through hormone spikes in those years. Drinking water will help keep you in optimal health. Drink two litres a day or more as appropriate if you are exercising.

In order to break free from acne troubles, it is important to use a natural product that prevents acnes, treats it and stops the reoccurrence. Most of the commercial anti-acne creams available in the market tend to clog skin’s pores leaving your skin dry and irritated there by worsening the problem.

Know more about Vitiligo and their associated conditions

Vitiligo – An auto immune condition results in loss of skin colour in patches.

Melanocytes (Pigment-producing cells) are destroyed in certain areas or stop functioning

  • Vitiligo affects only the external appearance
  • It affects people of any age, gender, or ethnic group
  • Not medically dangerous
  • Not contagious too

 

Sites of action

  • Backs of the hand
  • Arms
  • Eyes
  • Knees
  • Elbows
  • Feet
  • Mouth
  • Armpit
  • Groin
  • Nostrils
  • Umbilicus
  • Genitals
  • Rectal area

 

Triggers of Vitiligo

  • Altered immune system
  • Stress imbalance
  • A stressful event
  • Critical sunburn
  • Skin trauma
  • Exposure to chemicals
  • A neural cause
  • Hereditary cause
  • May be even a virus

 

Mechanism of melanogenesis

MC1R (Melanocortin 1 Receptor) gene –> MC1R (Melanocortin 1 Receptor) protein + α- MSH (Alpha – Melanin Stimulating Hormone) –> MITF (Melanocyte –Inducing Transcription Factor) –> TYR (human tyrosinase) gene –> Tyrosinase –> Dopa (dihydroxyphenylalanine) –> Dopaquinone –> Dopachrome –> Melanin 1. Eumelanin (dark colour) 2. Pheomelanin (light colour)

 

 

Vitiligo is because of absence of this mechanism either missing or misleading of any of the factors responsible for this process. Not only these factors other external triggers like oxidative stress which reduce the stability of Tyrosinase gene,  which regulates melanin production. Impaired melanocyte growth and development which reduces E-cadherin expression and alters Wnt pathway responsible for melanocyte diffrentiation.

 

 

Associated problems with vitiligo

Although vitiligo is mainly a cosmetic condition, people with vitiligo may experience a variety of problems. Since there is no melanin production, which helps in protecting the skin from harmful radiations of sun, skin becomes sensitive with lack of melanin.

Skin is susceptible for skin cancers, skin rashes, skin burns, erythema( skin redness) etc..

Vitiligo can affect the colour of the eyes (iris) and also can cause abnormalities like inflammation in retina, which has light sensitive cells but affect vision.

Since Vitiligo is because of weaker immune system, more prone to autoimmune disorders like hypothyroidism, diabetes, pernicious anemia, Addison’s disease, and alopecia areata. Also people with autoimmune disorder may have chances of getting Vitiligo.

People with Vitiligo have low self esteem which leads to stress and depression making the immune system  more weak.
