Exercise and how it can improve your acne problems

Exercise results in sweat which assists in cleansing out your pores. Not only that, the increased bloodflow in your body increases the oxygen provided to your skin cells to assist in reducing acne. The cleansed pores make it easier for the existing acne to be dealt with.

Furthermore, exercising improves the functioning of your internal organs. Your heart is able to circulate blood and thus oxygen around your body faster, while excretory systems such as the liver and kidneys are better able to remove and dispel toxins from your body. The overall beneficial effects are multiplied for your acne problems.

Important point to note: Do remember to shower and wash your face as quickly as you can after exercise. The sweat that is generated by exercise is a prime breeding ground for acne bacteria, and it is vital to keep yourself clean so that acne bacteria does not have the chance to reproduce and grow.
