December 1st, 2008

Honey is not just for making things sweeter naturally, it has very good medicinal properties that even the medical community agree with. It’s been used to treat several different ailments and is found in many skin care products and for treating skin disorders. Using honey for a homemade acne treatment can be very effective. Try honey for the treatment of acne along with other remedies you may be using.

You may be wondering, why honey? It is actually quite simply. Honey is a powerful antioxidant that can aid in the removal of free radicals from your body. When your body has a build up of free radicals, which are toxic, this is one cause of excess sebum and inflammation of hair follicles. Applying honey to the affected area can reduce this.

Honey contains very strong anti inflammation and antiseptic properties which is why it is a great homemade acne treatment. Because acne comes from infection of bacteria, honey will work to fight the bacteria.

Honey provides minerals, vitamins and many other important nutrients for your overall health. Some say that when combined with milk you will get a complete balance of nutrition. So not only can you use honey topically as a homemade acne treatment, but orally as well. It is safe, effective and healthy.
