WHY WAIT UNTIL THE NEW YEAR...

Start your New Year Resolutions now & get a jump start on treating your acne in Chico, Ca.

Yes, the binge-worthy holidays are coming up, but that doesn't mean you can't start eating for clear skin now. Have your pie, your eggnog, your Christmas cookies, but also make time for healthful, whole, nutrient dense foods. Squeeze in a daily, green smoothie. Have hearty, homemade veggie packed soup or stew. Juice detoxifying veggies and fruits once a week. Sit by the fire, crack hazelnuts & sip on a hot toddy.

The holidays don't have to be an extreme gorge-athon. Find your way to the middle ground and enjoy!

RECOVERING FROM PIE OVERLOAD...

You've spent the last 3 days having pie for breakfast, lunch & dinner - there will surely be a big breakout in your future. Time to get back on track and heal your acne in Chico. 

Steamed veggies, big mixed green salads, juicing raw veggies & a multi-mineral supplement will all help restore the minerals that have been depleted with pie overload. Over eating, in general, creates a high glycemic load for the body. This translates into too much sugar and also depletes minerals and causes inflammatory conditions like acne.

THANKSGIVING BREAKOUTS...

You're intent on stuffing yourself though the entire weekend despite the repercussions of monster breakouts in Chico. Yes, over eating causes breakouts because you likely aren't producing enough digestive enzymes to handle the load, your liver can't keep up with the demands and your body becomes toxic & lethargic. 

Taking a broad spectrum digestive enzyme with your meals will help facilitate the breakdown and absorption of nutrients. While a high potency multi-vitamin & mineral will support the body's biochemical processes & liver detoxification pathways.

IS COCONUT OIL GOOD FOR ACNE...

WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER AN ACNE TREATMENT...

After an acne facial in Chico, you can expect your skin to be a little blotchy from extractions, which subsides in 2 to 3 hours. Many clients come on their lunch break and go back to work or school right after their acne treatment. 916SKIN approved make-up can be applied immediately after, if necessary.

POOP YOUR WAY TO CLEAR SKIN...

Fiber helps 
control breakouts in Chico 
in two ways. 

#1) Fiber makes you poop. Lack of fiber causes constipation and a build up of inflammatory toxins, which leads to inflammatory breakouts. You can poop every day and still be constipated. If you have to strain or it's clumpy - you're constipated. 

#2) Fiber helps control blood sugar. Lack of fiber causes blood sugar to skyrocket, which also leads to inflammatory breakouts.

Fiber is found in plants and their cell cells. That's one of the reasons it's important to eat the peels of fruits and vegetables. An apple has twice as much fiber as an apple that has been peeled!

Healing acne is a matter of how many steps you're willing to take. Taking one step, like eating more fiber, may not get you clear; but the more steps you take, the better your chances of getting clear.

-legumes daily (beans & peas; avoid peanuts/peanut butter)

-whole grains (quinoa, brown rice, oatmeal (not quick/instant))
-avoid processed foods (white rice, noodles, breads, pastries, chips, candy/candy bars, fast food)
