How To Prevent Pimples

Nobody likes to suffer from those annoying pimples. They often lower your self-confidence about your appearance. In addition, it is a way in which our body secretes an excess of harmful substances. Pimples are a natural way for the skin to remove excess toxins from the body.

This article describes the causes of pimples. We also describe what we can do to remove harmful substances from our body in other ways. This way we can tackle pimples in a natural way and ensure that the skin does not get pimples.

The body’s self-cleaning function

The body is always looking for a natural balance. We must therefore devote sufficient time and attention to getting to know this process. In this way we can recognize the different signals that the body sends out. Only then are we able to keep our health in optimal condition and prevent disease.

Every day we come into contact with toxic substances, which are therefore  accumulated in the body through various channels :

• Unhealthy nutrients, such as saturated fats, refined foods, fried snacks, white sugar, etc.
• Accumulation of toxins due to a malfunctioning digestive system
• Pollution (air pollution, smoke, toxic substances from industry, exhaust gases)
• Alcohol consumption
• Beauty products containing toxic substances

These substances are processed and excreted by various organs in the body:

• The guts
• The kidneys and bladder
• The lungs
• The skin 

How can we purify the skin?

Pores are very small openings in your skin. Waste products and sebum are released through these pores. Excess sebum is converted into acne, pimples and blackheads. In this way, it also helps prevent toxic substances from building up and being converted into tumors or cysts.

However, how can we prevent waste products from being excreted through the skin and pimples? This can be illustrated in two ways:

• Making sure we don’t come into contact with toxic substances 
• Dispose of waste by other means 

Reduce absorption of harmful substances

Buy natural, unprocessed foods as much as possible. All in all, avoid prepackaged and pre-prepared food products as much as possible. Also, make it a habit to always prepare your meals at home.

Buy organic products if possible. Do not forget to thoroughly clean or peel fruits and vegetables if you are not sure of the origin. Avoid foods with additives or e numbers.

Tips

• Keep meals simple and don’t combine too many food products in one meal.
• Immediately treat digestive problems such as heartburn or gas.
• Enjoy your meal, chew well and eat slowly.
• Avoid the use of tobacco and alcohol.
• In addition, try as little as possible to come into contact with toxic substances from paint, glue and varnish.
• Get an air-conditioning system at home.
• Finally, opt for natural or homemade cosmetics free of oil-based ingredients or heavy metals.

This will give you more pimples!

There are also a number of foods that we should preferably eat as little as possible or omit completely. Because they actually stimulate the formation of pimples. So be moderate with products from the list below:

• Milk and dairy products with a high fat content, such as full-fat cream, fatty cheeses or ice cream
• Red meat
• Sausages and smoked meats with a high fat content
• Milk chocolate (a better alternative is dark chocolate with a high cocoa content)
• Trans fats or fats such as margarine

• Fatty sauces or cream sauces
• Fried snacks

What is the best way to detoxify naturally?

To prevent pimples, we can stimulate the body to remove accumulated waste in an alternative way:

• Maintain a healthy digestive system and prevent constipation and frequent diarrhea.
• Keep the liver healthy and in optimal condition by cleansing regularly with bitter tea from milk thistle, boldo leaf, dandelion or artichoke.

• Stimulate the excretory function of the kidneys by regularly drinking an infusion of burdock root or horsetail.
• Treat your body regularly to a detox treatment by following a cleansing diet or juice cure.

Take care of your skin!

Take advantage of the tips below to offer your skin optimal care. This way you prevent waste products that are eliminated through the skin from forming pimples:

• Take care of your skin once a week with a natural, homemade peel based on the following simple ingredients, which you certainly already have at home: sugar, salt, honey, baking soda or baking soda.

• Apply a clay mask twice a month . Clay absorbs waste from the body and at the same time nourishes the skin with essential minerals.
• Moisturize your skin with natural moisturizing products and avoid artificial paraffin-based beauty products.
