I’ve heard that if you eat hot water with lemon slices before you go to bed that it’ll clear up acne? Is this true? Any other home remedies to make to eat or drink that’ll help skin?

I have no idea. In my case, it would absolutely not true because I’m allergic to lemons and when I eat anything with lemon in it my face breaks out. If you have a stubborn acne problem (more than just the usual, occasional break out), consider getting allergy tests done. That’s how I found out I’m allergic to lemons (I used to eat lemon bread, lemonade, lemon cookies, etc all the time), and when I gave it up my face cleared in about a few weeks.
Increase your zinc intake to 60 mg. per day (supplement). That was prescribed by a doctor as a good acne preventer. Never heard of the hot water and lemon slice thing, but lemon is good for your liver and as you know it’s in many dish soaps because it’s a good grease cutter, which is what it does for your liver (helps with fatty deposits and helps your bile). It couldn’t hurt.
TRY THIS!
leafy green vegeatbles
nuts, especially walnuts if you are dry
anything that has vitamin a in it, which is good for the skin
but remember, the number one thing you can do is wash your face and use a moisturizer, twice a day!
as for hot water and lemons, i am not sure, but i have heard that lemon ice water/lemon in your ice tea on a regular basis might help, but my above suggestions are definitely better! good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try to eat something rich in vitamins A,B,C and E. Those vitamins are proved to be effective to fight acne.
Green vegetables, carrots, bananas and orange are rich in vitamin A.
Sweet potatoes, green peppers chickpeas are rich in vitamin B.
All kinds of citrus fruits are rich in vitamin C.
Good sources of vitamin E are sunflower seeds,almonds,collard greens, parsley, kale, papaya, olives, bell pepper, brussels sprouts, kiwifruit, tomato, blueberries, and broccoli.
Just include them in your diet. Good luck with your fight against acne.
Here are three of the more popular methods that you could decide to use.
1. Intake of Vitamin A, C, and E. Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant that would help the body get rid of unwanted free radicals. Free radicals are foreign particles that result from exposure to air pollution, peroxides and radiation. A better alternative is alpha-tocopheral which is a potent form of Vitamin E. Vitamins A and C, on the other hand, help regenerate skin cells. These combines would allow your acne scars to heal faster. These vitamins can be derived from their natural sources, or from widely-available supplements.
2. Intake of collagen supplements. Collagen supplements stimulate the body’s production of collagen. Collagen is an insoluble fibrous protein that expedites the repair of dead tissues and skin cells. As with the vitamins enumerated above, collagen would also help your acne scars heal at a faster rate. Collagen supplements come in ointments, or through laser technology using soft, red light.
3. Good skin care. Acne scars can heal naturally, minus other intervening conditions like diabetes or some form of skin disease. Healing time is estimated at 6 to 12 months. The important thing to remember as you wait for your acne scars to heal is that you shouldn’t do anything that would aggravate the situation. Proper skin care can help your acne scars heal properly, and perhaps even faster.

Well, I have tried about everything out there and some things worked better than others. All involved acne products. One thing I have not tried yet, but I think I will is a treatment from the inside out. By that I mean working on diet and detox. From everything I have read, this really has a chance and doesn’t involve any more over-the-counter or prescription products. There is a review of a diet and detox system that I cite below. Check it out for yourself and see if it’s right for you. If I try it, I’ll leave my comments here. Good luck to you!
The Importance of Eating Raw to Cure Your Acne
Acne is something that none of us want to have to deal with but unfortunately, many of us do go through a period of time in our lives when acne is an issue. It also seems that this problem usually goes hand-in-hand with a difficult time in our lives as well, puberty. This time, whenever our hormones are in flux and things are changing on a rapid basis is the last time that we need to deal with something such as acne. The simple fact of the matter is, acne may be more of a matter of the things that we eat coupled with the fact that our body is changing. In order to overcome it, a few changes in the way that we eat may need to take place.
A lot of people feel that Acne is not really a disease or a result of the fact that we have more oils in our skin. There is a lot of thought that it actually comes about as a result of the toxins that we are constantly taking into our bodies through the things that we eat. Instead of being a disease in itself, it may actually be a warning sign that our body is giving us that we need to change some of the things that we are doing. One of the easiest ways for us to clear our skin, although it is going to take some work on your part is to cut out the junk that you have been eating and to go on and all raw food diet.
Eating raw food consistently is going to do several different things to your body. First of all, raw food has a cleansing effect and it is going to help to clean your internal organs of some of the sludge and toxins that have been built up as a result of eating poorly. Secondly, it is going to give your skin an overall glow once it begins to clear. Eating raw food is all way that you can cure your acne from the inside out and many people that have switched over to a raw food diet have seen results in a short period of time.
Of course, you need to keep in mind that the toxins that are in your body did not get their overnight. Whenever you go on a raw food diet to cure your acne, give it enough time to see it through until it works.
I am glad that you have realized that there is a relationship between acne and your diet. Above all you have to ensure that you get enough vitamins and minerals daily. As well as helping you clear up acne, it will also help your health and you will feel better.
You must try to reduce the intake of chocolate and junk food. Also try to get a daily dose of vegetables and fruit.
Good luck with your diet.
Ive suffered with acne for 5 years now and a friend told me recently that eliminating dairy products from your diet can help get rid of acne. I thought id give it a try since i have nothing to loose considering all the MONEY and time i have spent on acne products and facials in the past.
It took about 3 weeks to see a noticeable difference and 4 weeks later the only remains on my face are a few scars which will heal over time. I stopped eating/drinking milk, cream, ice cream, cheese and basically anything with high milk contents. I still eat some yogurt a few times a week because i still want some calcium intake and yogurt is also very good for your intensinal flora. I will also buy some calcium tablets.
After all these years of medication, expensive facial treatments, laser treatment anything you name it, i have done it, i can finally say im free from acne. I have to say though that i was shocked because of all the research ive done and doctors ive been to, never ever mentioned anything about dairy products and how they may be a major cause of acne. I also did more research about why milk may be a huge factor in acne and it came up with because of the hormones in milk that are produced by a cow when the cow is pregnant. It all makes sense and
finally after all these years i have found the cure for acne.
Forget the products for now stop eating any dairy products and see if there is any difference.
Give it a go you have nothing to loose!
