Acne

[jkg114]

For the teens on this board, I have a question. Do you guys have any acne? And if you do do you think weed has any play in this? And what have you done about it as far as pills or perscriptions or whatever? I am on minocyclene right now, and it is not working to great. I need to know this because I am fucking getting it bad. Its killing me. Thanks guys.

Acne is killing you? Come on now :rolleyes:

No, weed doesn't have a play in your acne problem. I've never had the problem of acne and I've been smoking for years. Do you work in fast food at all? Being around a deepfryer and greasy foods will increase acne problems, but some people it comes naturally and is part of growing up. You'll out grow it. Just don't pick at your face. My buddy use to have an acne problem at one point too, and he picked at them, and now he has pock mark scars on his face.

Other than that, can't help ya bro :cool:

When I smoke pot on a regular basis, I actually get less acne breakouts. When I quit for a week or two, it flares up again. :(

I've heard rumors about pot causing acne, however that was probably determined by the same people who preach that it causes impotence and psychosys. :rolleyes:

your a fucking faggot. have a nice day

Just don't touch your face, and watch what you eat. Mayonaise gives you acne, so avoid foods that could cause acne. But most importantly don't touch your face.

LOL, I've never heard that one. well i suppose that it should shrivel up my balls and give me big muscles too eh? :D shees, I can't believe doctors preach that kind of shit.

I bet you if you did a survey of teens who smoke pot, a high percentage have acne.
Chocolate/mayo don't do shit to your face, that one product with Jessica Simpson is uncredible, scientists proved that they were wrong.

are you implying that pot causes acne then?

btw, I don't know about chocolate, but I know too much candy can cause zits.

[mellow mood]

lol i smoke since 5 years and my face is pretty clean

weed has nothin to do with acne

[senoirsalsa]

i get pimples,but thats completly differnt from acne(pimples come when i eat greasy shit and forget to wash my face afterwards)

[WeBB15]

I get one or 2 at most, i never breakout... and im 17. Just try not 2 touch your face and wash your face daily.

I bet if you did a survey of teens in general, a high percentage would have acne. What's your point?

[OzzyOz]

go to your doctors, and try to get the best prescription!

don't skip a day, and avoid greasy food + chocolate

and candy! plus stress can cause some people to break out (indirectly).

[OzzyOz]

yeah
i think that's the main reason i got acne, some how my acne was controlled when i smoked weed :-)

Oh yeah, drink 8 glasses of water ( you should anyways )

[mrdevious]

that reminds me, drinking pop (or "soda" as you americans call it) isnt' good for your skin either. in fact, not good for your body in general, I've totally cut that crap out of my system, I just realized I'm poisoning my body daily so the richest companies in the world can get richer. coke, pepsi, whatever, they can all go to hell.

[rastabill89]

i usaly just get them on my forhead

[OzzyOz]

i drink a diet soda like once a week, but for the most part... i just don't drink soda anymore

it's bad stuff

when you wash your face before putting on your medicine, make sure you use Hot water... not cold water, Hot water opens the pores up

In primitive cultures acne is VERY rare. Just watch "Going Tribal" or any other show featuring people who do not eat our modern diet. You will see all the teens have NO acne. Here's my advice--eat things with lots of vitamin A (yams, carrots, apricots, peaches, yellow fruits and vegies). You know Retinol, the acne medicine? It's a form of Vitamin A (but it has side effects and yams don't). Eat fruits and vegetables, at least one big salad a day (skip the iceberg lettuce, use spinach or leaf lettuces like Romaine or red). Eat WHOLE grain foods, like oatmeal and 100% whole wheat bread. Slow down on the fatty hamburgers and fries. Eat "cave man style" as much as possible. Except for meat, potatoes and beans, which should be cooked, eat a lot of raw foods. Start reading the nutritional labels on the food you eat. You need about 2,000 calories each day--that 2.75 ounce, greasy bag of chips may have 450 calories and a load of fat you don't need. The standard American diet sucks when it comes to nutrition. Acne is just the first problem you face with it. Later comes diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity... you get the idea. Beyond that--keep your skin clean and your hair out of your face. Have you ever had a chilled ripe peach when stoned? That is heaven!
