Miraculous Teenage Acne Problems Cure

By Celia Spiers

Teenage acne is a problem that can be solved. Life is sufficiently challenging for teenagers without the added burden of acne. At a critical time of life when physical appearance needs to be at its best Nature decides to get the face to break out like the surface of the moon. Confidence gets a brick dropped on it.

Hormones are the main culprit for this eruption but the more medically correct term for acne would be an inflammation of the pilosebaseous follicles. Everyday language would define it as zits and pimples dotted about especially on the face. It does not last though. A couple of years mostly but for teenagers this may seem like an eternity.

Anyone who experiences these horrible symptoms will probably regard it in later life as the worst of times. The social implications cause a lot of distress and can lead to all sorts of problems like depression, isolation, low self esteem and even considering suicide. Luckily for us though Nature provides a cure for this problem - aloe vera.

There was a search involved for humanity but this has been done for you over the centuries and today modern pharmaceutical procedures have captured this plant in a pill. Famously in the distant past, Cleopatra the queen of Egypt used Aloe vera to maintain her silky skin. Its value was highly regarded by the physicians and beauticians of the time. Whereas they would have recognized its wondrous effects and accepted them as a gift from the Gods, these days we like to analyze and measure things.

There are such a lot of benefits that aloe vera brings in and it can sound a bit like a cure-all. The work that it does begins with the digestive system and this is a particularly effective cure for people with problems like irritable bowel syndrome. It also gives the immune system a good boost.

Its effects are soon apparent with a feeling of well-being and renewed energy. Healing nutrients work their way through the deep tissue of the body until they reach the teenage acne problem making it gradually disappear. (Eczema is another candidate helped by aloe vera.) You will also notice that your nails and hair look a lot better too. No doubt you have already tried a few over the counter cures for your teenage acne problem and some of them may have had aloe vera in them.

Often these are not effective because aloe vera is degraded by exposure to air. If you also add the cloaking effects of the other ingredients that the creams are made from its easy to see why they are ineffective. So your procedure needs to be ingesting aloe vera. Swallow it. It is classified as a food so its quite safe to just cut off about 2 inches from one of the spiky fronds, wash it under the tap and then eat it. (First of all making absolutely sure that the Aloe Vera plant is a Barbadensis Miller variety!)

The taste does not suit everyone. I like it but a lot of people think that it is disgusting. Of all the ways to get aloe vera into your body this is the most natural. Beware of the laxative effect that it can have on some people. A constant state of loose bowels would be counter productive so search for those pills. Your teenage acne problems will gradually disappear and you will soon forget that you ever had it. - 15683
