Stress and acne

July 28th, 2009

One of the leading causes of acne, especially adult acne, is stress! There have also been studies from trusted sources, including webmd, that links stress to acne in teens.

Adult acne is becoming more and more common for two main reasons, unhealthy eating habits and stress, two things that you should probably avoid for your overall health as well.

According to one study, teens have a 23% higher chance of getting acne when they are under high periods of stress. Scientists are not sure why, but there is definitely a correlation between stress and acne.

What do I think? I think stress does significant physical damage to the body over time. Look at the last couple of presidents, they seem to age 2 to 3 years for every year they are in office. Long story short, when the body is beat down, it beats back, and in this case, it can beat back by spreading acne around your face and the rest of your body. If you are looking to help out your overall acne situation and your health in general, take a chill pill and don’t sweat the small stuff!
