CRACKING THE NUT FOR ACNE...

HELP FOR ACNE IN CHICO, CA   916SKIN - ACNE PROGRAM


Acne is a constant battle. And to win, you need an arsenal of weapons. One such weapon, are nuts! Brazil, almonds, walnuts, pecans and macadamia nuts are loaded with vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants, fiber and essential fatty acids to repair the skin and help keep acne in check.  

Acne is associated, in part, with a lipid deficiency of the skin. Not having enough essential fatty acids "good fats" to build healthy cell membranes can lead to a host of skin conditions including acne. Eating plenty of raw nuts or dry roasted nuts on a daily basis provides your skin with many of the nutrients it needs for healthy skin.

Brazil nuts improve skin elasticity with selenium. Walnuts and pecans have anti-inflammatory properties and provide the skin with omega-3s (alpha-linolenic acid) to help control inflamed acne. Macadamia nuts are loaded with B-complex vitamins to help manage stress and quality oils that aid in skin rejuvenation.
