The last Swiss Health Survey shows: problematic use of alcohol among adolescents and young adults has increased.
Overall, the population living in Switzerland drink alcohol less frequently than in 2002.
The Swiss Institute for Prevention of Alcohol and Drug Problems (ISPA) has analyzed data on alcohol consumption collected as part of the Swiss Health Survey 2007. An overview.
The Swiss Institute for Prevention of Alcohol and Drug Problems (ISPA) reviewed on behalf of the Federal Office of Public Health data on alcohol consumption collected in the last Swiss Health Survey conducted in 2007. Respondents were aged at least 15 years old and lived in Switzerland. The representative figures show an increase in problem drinking among adolescents and young adults.
Problematic
Answers to questions on alcohol-related problems indicate that 83% of youth aged 15 to 24 have a low-risk drinking or are abstinent. In 1997, they were still 89%. The share of those with alcohol at higher risk, harmful or requiring treatment has increased.
Questions regarding the amount consumed on average per day also show that a higher proportion of adolescents and young adults at high risk. Considering all age groups, it appears that, for women, the situation remained stable between 1997 and 2007. It is encouraging that high-risk consumption of alcohol has generally decreased slightly in men, falling 3.3% in 1997 to 2% in 2007.
Scientific studies show that men are at high risk when they consume on average more than 60 grams of pure alcohol per day, which is at least 5 beers 3 dl. For women, the risk is high as they absorb more than 40 grams of alcohol per day, equivalent to about 4 or more standard drinks. This is the amount usually served in a restaurant (1 3DL beer, a glass of wine, a glass of water spirits correspond to one standard drink, 10 to 12 grams of pure alcohol).

Drink during the week increases the risk of binge drinking
Two Canadian universities, after studying the habits of alcohol consumption than 11,000 Canadians stress the importance of evaluating the absorption frequency of these drinks to know the risk of excessive drinking.
The results show in particular that regular consumption, even moderate, multiplies the risk of abuse.
This Canadian study, on an unprecedented scale, focused on the habits of alcohol intake for 1 year from 11,000 people aged 18 to 76 years. The statistical analysis was an assessment of risks by cutting the amount and regularity of consumption.
The results are troubling, at least for the advocates of moderate and regular consumption. Indeed men from 18 to 24 years who reported boire5 to 7 times a week have seven times more likely to have a consumption per week. This over, defined as five or more drinks on one occasion, is still called "binge drinking" and can lead to addiction and its complications. This risk is further increased PAR4 in men drinking more than 25 years as frequently, and 3.7 above 50. Among women drinking at the same frequency, the risk is multiplied by 3 between 18 and 25, by 2 above.

"The bun Express", a new phenomenon?
Today, "many seek intoxication. Above all, they consume more and more young people. "
This observation, taken by Richard and Elizabeth Colette Maurette, teachers of science and technology in health and social Jules Fil, defines a new phenomenon that affects youth, the "bun express." Moreover, the principal, Jerome Rallo, consider alcohol as a "problem to be taken round the body." His deputy, Maria Teresa and Nurse Monique Roque Dalence encourage the first phase, the observation. The second, the action must quickly intervene.
In the morning, at 8 am when the students return to the institution, it happens that some are not fully awake, because a party that ended late veille.Plusieurs poles must check the status of young . The first is in progress, the second in the infirmary. The students go there voluntarily or are referred by an "adult", whether supervisor, teacher or administration. Outside the institution, the school maintains regular contact with the bus drivers of the General Council, responsible for transporting students, again to build its network. Maria Theresa Roque explained that some of his students are "at risk", it is his duty "to empower parents." Obviously, the discourse is different each time, as appropriate.

The alcohol goes to the brain in less than ten minutes
A new study highlights the damage that can lead to regular alcohol consumption. Damage to the brain, sometimes irreversible.
Drink lots of alcohol and quickly has a real impact on cellulescérébrales.Il does not take much time to cause the numbness of our reflexes. A new study has sought to demonstrate the changes occurring in our brains when we consume alcohol and to identify the response time of our cells.
German researchers have been drinking for men and women an amount of alcohol through a straw 90 cm long, while lying in a scanner for an MRI of the brain.
Only after two glasses of wine
Only five to ten minutes after consuming a quantity of alcohol equivalent to three glasses of beer or two glasses of wine, changes in brain cells occur.
Young people are particularly vulnerable. "Already after two glasses of wine or three glasses of beer, helping fatigue among students was extremely rapid effects in the brain," said Pascale Livens, an emergency physician at CHR Namur.
In addition, more than the amount of alcohol ingested, it is above the rate that matters. "The problem is chronic use." The alcoholic drinks large amounts of alcohol

Alcohol responsible for 25 deaths in the world
Death of 25 in the world, even one in ten in Europe, is a consequence of alcohol consumption, according to studies published Friday in the British journal "The Lancet". Yet more than one in two of the world has ever consumed.
According to a study by Dr. Jürgen Rehm, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health in Toronto, the average consumption in the world is 6.2 liters of pure alcohol per year, or about the equivalent of a week 12 units (one unit = 10 g of pure alcohol, equivalent to 10 cl 25 cl of wine or beer).
It varies from 21.5 units per week in Europe to 18 units in North America and only 1.3 units in the countries of the Eastern Mediterranean.

The calories in alcohol
A drink, okay, two, hello damage ... And not just for health: the line too, because alcoholic beverages are particularly energy. Explanations and advice.
Energy well hidden ...
Cider, beer, wine, liquor ...: alcoholic beverages are obtained either by fermentation of natural sugars of fruit juice or cereal, or by distillation of these fermented drinks.
All are particularly loaded with alcohol and sugar, so energetic. When you know that 1 g of alcohol = 7 calories and only 1 g carbohydrate = 4 calories, it's saying how the addition energy can quickly climb!
For the alcohol content of a drink, you must have the degree and volume of glass: Quantity of alcohol in grams = (alcohol content 0.8 X X cl volume) / 10. As a wine that at 15 ° and contains 12 g of ethanol per 100 ml.
As for sugar, although it is generally not indicated on the label, it is easily detectable in the taste of the drink: its presence is in fact even more obvious that the product's taste is sweet. Thus, the palm goes to energy drinks that combine spirits with fruit juice and soft drinks are very sweet.

New phenomenon: Binge drinking
Also known under the names "bun Express," "acute alcohol intoxication," or even "Alcohol paroxysmal intermittent ...."
The binge drinking is a mode of consumption that is to absorb a large amount of alcohol in a short period of time, the main objective being to get drunk as quickly as possible ...
What are the origins of this mode of consumption?
The binge drinking comes from the Anglo-Saxon and Scandinavian countries where it is considered a major public health problem, which is probably a perversion of the phenomenon of "happy hours" that allow drinking at half price for a limited time . Paradoxically, it is perhaps a consequence of the principle "drink or drive" when it's your turn not to drive when you drink (a lot).
In England, the government launched 14 October 2006 a national prevention campaign called "Know your limits" (Know your limits). It consists of radio and television spots and posters featuring drunk people who are victims of accidents, violence or rape. The goal is to educate young English on the consequences of inappropriate alcohol consumption by showing the consequences of their vulnerability.

A quarter of the injuries to emergencies related to alcohol
A quarter of the wounded arriving emergency drank alcohol during the six hours preceding the injury.
And a third of violence-related injuries can be attributed to alcohol consumption in the previous 24 hours, according to a study at the CHUV.
In his doctoral thesis published as "Empty Glasses and Broken Bones" (empty glasses and broken bones), Hervé Kuendig looked at data collected between 2003 and 2006 in two separate studies in the emergency department of Hospital Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV) in Lausanne. The sample covers a total of about 8000 patients.
His main finding: 24.7% of the injured had consumed alcohol within six hours of the occurrence of trauma. Of these, 33.3% frequently engaged in "risk drinking episodic" of drinking large quantities of alcohol on one occasion at least once a month, and 13.1% were drinkers risk (on average more than one drink per day for women, more than two for men).

Young alcoholics seek new liver
A young man of 19 years to the liver destroyed by alcohol dying in London after being denied a transplant.
A young man of 19 years to the liver destroyed by alcohol dying in London after being denied a transplant. Another 22 died in July, following a refusal. Two British trivia questions about the selection of transplant candidates, but also the effects of the "bun Express."
"I have two weeks to save the life of my son," said BBC News Brian Anderson, who, feeling abandoned by the doctors, now on justice. His son Gareth, 19, was hospitalized in critical condition after drinking 30canettes beer in one evening. Doctors feared he would not survive more than two weeks.
Last week, the young man was transferred from Belfast to London. His liver is in a desperate state, he would need a transplant, but medical officials refused to put on the waiting list. Reason: the rule that can not benefit from a liver that the nine patients who showed abstinence for six months.
If Gareth dies, it will be a summer, the second young Briton to die in similar circumstances. Died July 20 in London, alcoholic hepatitis, Gary Reinbach, 22, and alcohol consumption since its 13 years. Despite the entreaties of his mother who called him "a second chance," the doctors had refused transplantation.
What would have happened to these two young men if they had been hospitalized in Switzerland? Can we destroy his liver into a "bun Express"? Such cases present themselves to us? Questions to Philippe Morel, head of the University Centre Romand surgical transplantation.

The liver: a vital organ and a real chemical plant
It is the organ detoxification of our body. It is responsible for transforming everything we eat is considered toxic by the body.
But our faith, and dealing more than 90% of the alcohol was absorbed, reaches full maturity around the age of 16.
This means that the more a child is younger, the same amount of alcohol is dangerous for him.
Attention! Do not leave a child unattended in the presence of alcoholic beverages. If do not usually wine, he can appreciate and drinking alcoholic beverages sweetened and may then, according to the amount absorbed, to an alcoholic coma.
He may die from 3 grams of alcohol (a deciliter and a half of water spirits) in the blood pure.
Alcohol consumption by young people in Switzerland is growing concern (alcopops have developed the use of alcohol among girls ...) where a significant impact in terms of accidents, violence and fighting, an activity unprotected sex.

A beer a day increases cancer risk
Men regularly drinking a beer or a glass of liquor may be at increased risk of cancer, shows a study conducted by researchers from McGill University in Montreal. This increased risk is not, however, among wine drinkers.
The survey covered nearly 3,600 Canadian men aged 35 to 70 years. It concludes that those who drank an average of these drinks per day are more likely to develop certain cancers than men who drink occasionally or not at all.
These include cancers of the esophagus, stomach, colon, lung, pancreas, liver and prostate. In general, the probability of developing cancer increases proportionately consumption.
On cancer of the esophagus, for example, men who drank one to six times a week have a higher risk of 83% of men who never drink alcohol or less regular drinkers.
The risk is three times higher among daily users. In addition, for the latter, the risk generally increases with the number of years of consumption.
Many studies have suggested that the act of drinking moderately - no more than one or two drinks a day - could be a good habit to health, particularly in mitigating the risk of heart attack .
But the investigation McGill researchers suggests that even moderate consumption of beer or hard liquor can be harmful.
The question of whether to give up alcohol completely can not be resolved by a single study, however, stressed Andrea Benedetti, one of the authors of the survey. "To learn how to balance the risk (of cancer) with the risk of cardiovascular disease, it is best to talk with her doctor," she said.

Start drinking early age increases the risk of alcoholism
The age at which someone starts to drink weighs on genetic predisposition to alcoholism, and increases the risk of becoming dependent on drink, according to a study from the University of Washington (USA), to appear in the 'December issue of Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research.
Researchers estimate that in susceptible individuals (with a genetic predisposition to alcoholism), the act of drinking the first glass of alcohol before the age of 15 years may increase the risk of dependence existing 90%.
The researchers studied more than 6,000 adult twins to see if the age of onset of alcohol use weighed the risks of alcoholism. But "it seems that there is a stronger genetic influence in those taking their first full glass at an early age," said Dr. Arpana Agrawal, who led the work.
Those who drank their first glass of alcohol at age 16 or after and who are addicted to alcohol have done for environmental reasons, the study shows.
The researchers hypothesized that frequent consumption of alcohol and pushed at a young age may alter the brain in development, and affect gene expression.
"There is something in the fact you start drinking young, which makes risk youth with problems associated with alcohol later in life" Arpana Agrawal note. "We continue our study of the mechanisms, but it could help to encourage young people to delay their first drink."

Alcohol and pregnancy: an underestimated risk taboo
The leading cause of disability in the newborn is alcohol the mother. Professional birth and prevention have decided to tackle this taboo by informing.
"A drug that would cause such a malformation rate would be prohibited, no woman would accept to take. Yet we continue to conduct themselves soft on alcohol. Pregnant women, themselves, measure the danger and harm the environment also pushes for consumption. We need to change attitudes. The question embarrassed everyone, including professionals who formulated to obtain a negative answer, "said Dr. Marie-Therese The Martelot, vice-president of the Perinatal Network of Western Brittany (*). 29 with ANPA (National Association for Prevention of Alcoholism and Addiction) and the Codes Committee (Departmental Health Education), the network decided to take over the world day prevention of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) event to be held tomorrow.
From 25 to 45 children per year
"We do not care enough to the experience of women. Not being able to resist drinking alcohol does not mean you will be a bad mother, but you can talk about for help. It is important to you and her child. " Of the 9,500 to 10,000 annual births in Brittany, the network of perinatal estimated that 25 to 45 children are victims of FAS. "Between seven and eight babies Brittany are diagnosed at birth. For others, the handicaps will prove later. The syndrome is the leading cause of disability, long before the trisomy 21. " FAS can result in growth retardation during pregnancy, physical abnormalities (ten times more malformations in the general population), behavioral disorders or mental retardation.
A bottle of alcohol
"It's not just women who massively. It is unclear what is the toxicity threshold. The tolerance level personnel can also be variable. Alcohol passes easily the placenta. Drink like putting alcohol in the bottle for a baby. The risk of miscarriage is also higher. " The doctor then advised to respect the zero alcohol during pregnancy, whether wine, cider or beer. The logo on the bottles is the first step to get the message. "But this logo is very small, because the alcohol lobby is powerful. Women talk easily of their smoking, but the alcohol is often undervalued. We live in a society where usability is associated with alcohol. "

Drink without disappointment
Assume its own responsibility for an alcohol abuse does not necessarily coincide with a life of abstinence.
Another approach is for these people at risk: the "controlled drinking" one possible outcome for that is not (yet) prepared to consider entirely waive the alcohol. undefined undefined
There are a few more lamps, the opinion of experts was made: for alcohol dependence, only one way of salvation, abstinence for life. But in recent years a new approach has seen the day the idea that, if not choose abstinence, people with alcohol problems could continue to drink, but more measured and less harmful to their health .
From the practical point of view, consume less means a plan: an agreement with a coach, patients determine the total amount of alcohol that they "will receive" per day and per week, and determine how many days they will forfeit entirely to drink.
In order to achieve these goals, they develop with the help of their mentor strategies and rules of conduct, eg.:
· Choice of the time at which it allows itself to drink
· In what places we decide to do so, in which not
· To · in how quickly consume the company of which
· Consignments to drink only when you feel cheerful.
On the scale of the Suisse Romande, it has been five years a program that supports this approach, Alcochoix. The great advantage of this program of controlled drinking is that it offers to people who can not abstain entirely for now the chance to return to a less harmful amounts of alcohol consumed. And besides, it seems that the method has a positive effect on the motivation of those concerned to learn, and can then be a springboard to consider abstinence. Experts point to a reserve for this program. It is not appropriate for everyone: only those who manage to keep a constant and accurate record of their consumption and maintain the focus on the goals in terms of quantity can expect to win their bet.

Addition the aftermath of yesterday
Even after the disappearance of any trace of alcohol in the blood, alcohol abuse continues to act on the body.
If no miracle potion will prevent a hangover (except moderation ...), some things can make it pass more easily.
Your head is buzzing? Tiger balm or a concentrate of peppermint oil may help: a circular motion to massage the temples, skull or neck and can provide a welcome sense of freshness. If you still feel like an anvil to the head, medicines against headaches are perhaps not the only solution. Applying a cold compress or ice pack are efficient alternatives. One who has failed to quench their thirst before falling into the arms of Morpheus must recover as quickly from dehydration of the body, alcohol is a powerful diuretic.
At the top of the list, there are mineral water, hot water with lemon, green tea, fruit or plants. Against thirst, drinks with caffeine such as coffee or cola should be avoided. They further increase the speed of the heartbeat. The most important thing after a drunken party is a lunch (dinner?) Rich in vitamins and minerals against dehydration and loss of blood electrolytes. For the more energetic, the good old "rollmops" Dutch is one of the most effective ways to regain a taste for life after abuse. For those who have a strong stomach, a bread with tomato or radish is perfect as an accompaniment, like an omelette with bacon.

How emotions can destroy your vision?
His message is in fact very simple: I arrived, and I'll tell you how you can, you also do it yourself.
After all, it is neither remedies grandmothers, or potions of witches!
We know that diseases - liver, kidneys or any other human organ - can affect the operation of our eyes, but it's our emotions that are the most powerful engines of these assignments.
The fact is that a person whose sight is good and generally does not undergo subtle changes which it does not even realize because of its visual safety margin will react much more virulent if a serious disorder, moved after an emotional shock.
Indeed, having no consciousness in the daily life of these variations, and being accustomed to a clear and precise, emotional will disrupt this balance will usually cause a commotion of combat general!
Ignoring the impact of emotions on his vision, that person will not make the link with the shock she just had and, especially, will do any temporary side.
Thus people enjoying a view fully functioning rush to a specialist and suddenly finds himself with glasses on ...
The eye accustomed to the correction "forced" and not be able to find himself, as he would have done naturally without the intervention of the glasses, normal operation.
We're obviously not trying to discourage you to consult an ophthalmologist if pain and discomfort of your vision! Aldous Huxley put simply warn people used to do very well in making them aware that their trouble, as sudden and embarrassing it is, could perhaps - perhaps! - Will solve itself when the emotional shock is past.
Is often the case with children, highly sensitive to interactions between their inner world and outer world. Complaints of visual disturbances automatically lead parents to provide their children with corrective lenses for their greater good, of course! But unfortunately, by condemning them to wearing glasses for life, while Hewlett-Packard Development passenger disorder is intended to shrink itself by reducing the emotional stress of departure.
In addition, a person with myopia - or any blurred vision - will tend to always be anxious about his view.
It's a vicious circle, because there is no rehabilitation possible when power is on! Anxiety grows rather to aggravate the disorder that created it.
Avoid the most of anguished and worry would be the best response, but we all know that esttrès hard to cut our feelings whether pleasant or sources of anxiety, or rather is very difficult not to adapt bad behavior towards a so-called negative emotions.
Let's face it, as the emotional distress is present, it will not be possible to create the right conditions OF a good vision!
The search for a more stable emotional state will need anyway. We can only advise people prone to vision problems to work on their emotions, either through counseling - a therapist, psychiatrist or other specialist - either through a relaxation activity as yoga, relaxation therapy, or even a more traditional sport, but to release tension.
It is obviously that of a board "Annex" and you can totally do the exercises of the Bates method without further ado!
And in the meantime, because it is not always easy to resolve these psychological problems, we will see in a how certain exercises can restore balance and act directly on the result of this emotion:
Release tension eye failing to release emotional tension, in fact ...
We now know the physical effects of relaxation: The brain produces waves, according to the different emotional state in which you are.
Relaxation - and more in the states of deep relaxation as in meditation, yoga or relaxation therapy - induced in the brain waves called "alpha".
We will not go into detail on these findings, it is useful to recall that these waves have an action the living organism: to regenerate.
Hence the importance for people with visual dysfunction, learning to relax, relax, a mild form.
This tension which we have much to speak must be the primary cause of pain to avoid. We'll see how, bearing in mind the obvious:
Wanting to do too much can lead to the opposite of the desired effect, the best is often the enemy of good.

How to improve by going to the movies?
We all have the ability to see perfectly well.
If we lost this ability, as a result of emotional or physical illness, we can find it. It is on this belief that Dr. Bates based his theory, and it is thanks to Aldous Huxley returned to a near-perfect.
Aldous Huxley in his book devotes a chapter to "best practices" to implement when, visually impaired, one goes to the movies.
He recommends wearing short attention on the darkness around the screen to rest his eyes. Indeed, only the screen is illuminated. Everything else, such as public room is in darkness and it will be impossible to recreate the effect of light proposed at a viewing on television, for example - we advise you not to produce another light source, like a lamp or a laptop screen. If this light source may indeed be beneficial for your eyes, it is likely to make you persona non grata by your neighbors row that light distracting - just what the purpose of a second light source!
We have already seen, in a previous chapter, the interest in your eyes there was to have a "database" as widely as possible for future reference when you encounter an object, a new image.
The films, both in film and television, have this great interest, to make us familiar external objects with which we will face in real life - and I'm not talking about weapons of gangster, finally, it You be the judge!
It is a fact that a viewer will always be more detached from the action that an actor, and this distance allows you to record momentary more easily stored as objects and images in real life images, objects and acts of daily life.
Cinema as television can help you, in addition of course the simple pleasure it is to dive into a fascinating story!
Another interesting exercise for the myopic.
For people with myopia, A. Huxley also an interesting exercise which they can benefit from sessions at the movies - but still assuming some financial sacrifice, since request to visit several times to see the same film.
The principle is: The first vision of the film will be at the forefront of the room, to better distinguish the images without glasses. Then, a few yards away for a second session and so on ...
The script you are becoming better known, the images you appear more accessible, you just have to use your memory.
This method, Aldous Huxley calls for all the shows, theater, cinema, and it can also - at lower cost! - Apply it to a movie on TV screen, as long as it has a DVD player.
In short, the enemy is not necessarily what you think!
If one refers to some popular wisdom, "not too much of it", so in respect of all the screens - computers, televisions, consoles - just, if you follow these tips carefully when defective vision, not to abuse it ... but it is also the case for better things, right?

What can I expect when I pass an eye exam
Why so many people fail they pass a vision test regularly? I think it's because they do not know what to expect. For this reason, I thought it is important to describe the process so that you feel comfortable knowing beforehand that there is nothing to fear.
On arrival, the receptionist will welcome you. It will ask you some information.
Then the optometrist will ask you to follow him in his office. It will ask about your health and ask you more questions in order to get the best solutions for your eye health and your good vision.
I asked the optometrist what questions people asked most often in the eye exam. The following are the top 5:
1. Why is my history is important?
By the review of your current vision problems, your overall health in addition to discuss your various activities, the optometrist can better tailor the eye examination to your needs.
2. What will happen during the eye exam?
In addition to determining your prescription, your near vision and distance, the eye examination will be used to check the health of your visual system. The optometrist will test your color vision, your sense of distance and try to detect indications of possible visual defects such as cataracts, retinal problems, glaucoma. All these elements of your review will be determined during these tests.
3. Why do you ask "which one is best?"
These questions will be asked during the portion of the visual examination when it is time to determine what your eyes need. By comparing a series of lenses, you get to determine what is most accurate for you. Gradually, as the differences become less marked, it is time to finalize your prescription. That's why if you have trouble choosing between two options, it's a good thing!
4. Why the air jet?
The air flow measuring intraocular pressure of your eyes. This is a very important test because high pressure can be an indicator of glaucoma.
5. Why do I follow a light with my eyes?
This test is used to determine how your pupils and your eye muscles react and it is a very important test to assess your neurological function.
Now that you have read the above, I hope you are reassured that you will used to spend a regular eye exam by an optometrist in St-Jerome and elsewhere.

Vision develops during the growth of our children and when the eye and brain starts to work in teams. Because problems can occur at different ages, the complete eye examination is essential throughout childhood. Many vision problems are preventable when they are detected early. Early detection can avoid many years of struggle for children because the vision has a significant impact on student learning and social activities.
The vision is a very complex system and because the eyes are working together with the brain, vision is often linked to learning problems of children. A comprehensive eye exam can help when children have difficulties with the learning process. Some children who are misdiagnosed with a learning disability often have vision problems which, when detected, are often correctable.
Never take your child's vision for granted. As a parent, you can protect the eyes of your children in many ways during childhood.
· Protection UV. We finally learned over the years to protect the skin of our children and our own with the application of sunscreen against the harmful rays of the sun. We must learn to apply the same wisdom to us. The accumulation of damage caused by UV rays can lead to vision problems and diseases later in life. So take the trouble to wear sunglasses against UV rays to your child or a cap with the pallet forward ... to prevent damage.
· Remove out! Studies have shown that children who play outdoors have better vision, because the outside being encouraged to focus their eyes on objects near and far. Spend too much time looking at objects up close (computers, television, video consoles, etc..) Limits the development of vision.
· In the rest! Children often spend long periods of time to look at their computer, TV and video games. To avoid visual problems, teach your child 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes from work or play up close, it must take a rest of 20 seconds looking at something 20 feet away.

Never take your child's vision for granted. As a parent, you can protect the eyes of your children in many ways during childhood.
· Protection UV. We finally learned over the years to protect the skin of our children and our own with the application of sunscreen against the harmful rays of the sun. We must learn to apply the same wisdom to us. The accumulation of damage caused by UV rays can lead to vision problems and diseases later in life. So take the trouble to wear sunglasses against UV rays to your child or a cap with the pallet forward ... to prevent damage.
· Remove out! Studies have shown that children who play outdoors have better vision, because the outside being encouraged to focus their eyes on objects near and far. Spend too much time looking at objects up close (computers, television, video consoles, etc..) Limits the development of vision.
· In the rest! Children often spend long periods of time to look at their computer, TV and video games. To avoid visual problems, teach your child 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes from work or play up close, it must take a rest of 20 seconds looking at something 20 feet away.
The benefits of contact lenses
For many of us, wearing glasses is a must. But we must recognize that this tool is not essential to the taste of everyone on the aesthetic. Second, although some will perfectly accommodate the glasses can be quite restrictive in practice: they are not really forget. For example, it is very difficult to play sports of any kind when wearing glasses. The weather can also cause moisture condensation on the lenses, or drops of water. Another drawback of glasses, the field of vision is narrowed when the door, which can be annoying to drive for example.
All these reasons can grow to consider alternative solutions: The one that is truly sustainable is perhaps the contact lenses. Many talk about it, but few people actually decide to "take the plunge." Here are some explanations to help you overcome your fears.
There are two main types of lenses: soft contact lenses and hard contact lenses.
Soft lenses are available in daily, monthly or traditional. The lenses can spare the daily chore of cleaning, since they change every day. They are also more hygienic, and less likely to cause irritation. Flexible, they are less impressive for beginners, and their cost is lower by contact lens, which is more in the early days, where you may damage them or lose them. Monthly lenses are a good compromise between the traditional lenses and daily lenses. They exchange every 2 weeks and every 3 months usually. They therefore require an interview that they do not require that we change daily, but also avoid having to store pairs of lenses in order to change them every day.
Traditional lenses, for against, require more rigorous maintenance because proteins in the tears form a deposit over time must be clean at all costs otherwise trigger eye irritation.
Hard lenses, although less easy to use as flexible, they cover a wider range of vision problems, and offer a superior visual quality. Rigid lenses are also more comfortable for those with eyes too dry for soft lenses. They are also less often associated with allergies that may be encountered with soft contact lenses.
Of course, in any case, it is essential to consult an ophthalmologist and an optician, because contact lenses, regardless of type, must always be subject to medical prescription and contact lens wearers should consult a specialist at least twice a year, to control the tolerance of the eye lens and ensure that they remain appropriate to their view.
Finally, remember that comfort is incomparable to use, and although there may be a little embarrassed at first, when choosing to wear contact lenses, it is rare to regret.

Market for contact lenses
The number of people wearing contact lenses (or contact lenses) in the world is estimated at more than 120 million people.
Contact lenses are in most cases made for reasons of aesthetics and comfort to the extent that they are virtually invisible and very light.
Among the different types of contact lenses exist, the most common are soft lenses and rigid lenses:
- There are contact lenses and rigid Plexiglas hard contact lenses that have the modern characteristic of being permeable to oxygen and can correct all defects of vision.
- The soft contact lenses are very comfortable and ideal for people who wear contact lenses recently because they are very easy to use.
However, this type of contact lenses do not correct all visual defects.
There are different types of contact lenses: the lenses daily, monthly, toric ...
You should know that there are other types of contact lenses as cosmetic and therapeutic contact lenses.

How to choose contact lenses
For those who suffer from vision problems and are not thrilled with the glasses, which in addition to being impractical, too often tend to scratch, to narrow the field of view, to cause irritation in the nose and ears, not to mention the aesthetics ... contact lenses are an excellent solution. But their use can be quite tricky and it is necessary to know some information before you leap, because the purchase, contact lenses can be very expensive, depending on the type of lenses you need. So should you get it right.
First, do not trust that your eye doctor or optician to guide you in your choice of contact lenses. Indeed, they are the only professionals able to determine your needs. Thus, the choices available to you will depend largely on which correction your eyes need. In your case, we can therefore offer you traditional rigid lenses, having an initial cost (between € 250 and € 450 the pair) that it is not possible to lose a lens, or damaging them due to lack of maintenance. The traditional contact lenses actually require careful maintenance because their prices to keep them requires a long time (usually a year or two).
For those who prefer to reduce the maintenance, daily disposable lenses are a good solution because they are disposable, and sold in a sterile package. It is also much less severe damage to or loss of one of the lenses when they are not worth qu'entre1 € and € 3 a pair. It also helps to spread the cost over an entire year, even if it means ultimately more expensive per year than traditional lenses (assuming that the lenses are not damaged or lost). They can also be used in addition to traditional lenses, such as when you are unable to engage in a careful maintenance of your lenses if you go on weekends. Unfortunately, these disposable lenses are not suitable for all vision problems, and only an expert can tell you if you can find daily lenses to suit your view.
A third solution, which is really half-way between the first two, is that of monthly lenses. These are soft contact lenses such as daily disposable lenses, which are maintained as traditional lenses, and is replaced between every two weeks and every three months. They also have the advantage of being less expensive to buy, space and power budget.
Finally remember that wearing contact lenses, once we have established a small routine and learned to live with, is much more comfortable than wearing glasses that narrow field of view can be very uncomfortable, s' mist in inclement weather to prevent the sport ... not to mention aesthetics. Because although many people live very well "style glasses", others prefer their faces naturally.

Do I need glasses to work at a computer? if so, what type?
Several symptoms may occur when working on computer: headache, pain in the neck, shoulder or back pain, burning and itchy eyes, blurred vision: we are experiencing eye strain when working on computer. Eyeglasses are a solution to these problems.
There are different types of glasses, some people have never had vision problems (such as students, for example) but need glasses to avoid the eye strain. The eyes get tired because we spend more time in front of a computer: these needs are due to a problem lighting, remote eye / computer, blinking of the eyes (we blink much less of screen time). Therefore eyeglasses with a correction adapted to the needs and the distance of the eye / computer. You have a single vision glasses that allow a good view on screen, but that should be removed as soon as one wants to look away. You have the glasses two visions, which are very convenient for people working a lot on screen and near vision for papers. In this case, you will find the intermediate vision (for computer) at the top of the glass and near vision (for paper) at the bottom of the glass, but her glasses for distance vision, the vision will be blurred. Otherwise you have the glasses 3 vision, progressive lenses that allow for the three visions (far, intermediate, almost) but beware the field of view is smaller it is not the full width of the glass (gray area on the side).
The glasses on the computer must be tailored to your needs, depending on the time spent on computer, the position of this (the distance), lighting and your business (if it requires other visions).

Rehydration by the eye blink
To find a good moisturizing eye, it is important to have a natural blink normal.
Or if you wear glasses or contact lenses, it was unfortunately the bad habit of not blinking enough.
Indeed, glasses and lead our eyes to be fixed too, to tighten, resulting in eyestrain, including wearing glasses or lenses are not always aware.
So when you decide to back good eyesight without glasses, it is important to get used to blink, first, on a voluntary basis.
The blink movements are closing and reopening of the eyelids quickly. These cilia beat are initially caused mindfully voluntarily, before gradually become natural reflexes.
The advantages are a good blink: eyes a rest, a decrease of fatigue, hydration of the eyes, removal of foreign bodies, dust and germs.
To blink, a good method is to want to look at the thing seen from behind. In closing his eyes, it is then in principle we see the full thing we tried to see accurately.
Like the practice of palming or palms, best relaxation exercise, the blink is a basic practice that improves significantly and in a completely natural sight.
The blink is practiced without moderation in all daily activities. When you look at a screen like the TV or computer, or when you're at the movies, remember to blink. Our eyes can in fact be a little lazy in these situations and sometimes you have to blink voluntarily think that our view continues to be good.

How to Boost Your Articulations
Throughout your life, you have made sport intensively and it is likely that your joints have suffered. Good news: Many food supplement can help promote healing of your joints, you avoid problems and stay at your best.
Fish oil: Fish oil, rich in omega-3, is probably the best of these supplements. By reducing inflammation, fish oil helps to heal faster and reduces both pain and stiffness suffered by arthritis.
In most cases, fish oil contains trade approximately 30% of omega-3, which include EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). Six: grams per day of salmon oil to 30% of omega-3 capsules or extract fish oil equivalent to the dose used for arthritis in clinical trials. This is a perfect dose if your joints are very painful, but one to two grams a day is enough to talk.
In addition it protects against heart attacks and strokes, the anti-inflammatory properties of EPA appear to reduce the loss of muscle mass in animals. It could thus have a dual purpose: to prevent muscle loss in older people and provide an additional preventive medical.
If you are allergic to fish or if you need surgery, consult your doctor before consuming fish oil. A high intake of fish oil thins the blood so it is wise to consult your doctor if you are taking blood thinners or anti-inflammatory.
Glucosamine sulfate: Glucosamine is also beneficial for the joints. Clinical studies show a beneficial effect in the treatment of arthritis. Glucosamine may help to prevent wear of the joints and tendons due to the sport.
These studies suggest that glucosamine is compatible with the anti-inflammatory such as aspirin or ibuprofen, as it accelerates the renewal and rebuilding of tissues. In most tests, the subjects took from 1500 to 2000 mg of glucosamine sulfate per day for at least eight weeks to record a significant impact. Glucosamine is likely to result in a slight increase in insulin resistance, take a break after your pains have disappeared and avoid taking more than six months away.
SAMe: S-adenosyl-methionine (SAMe) is a co-enzyme used by the body to produce various compounds, dopamine in the brain to the elements for the healing of joints such as glucosamine. SAMe has anti-inflammatory therapies for joints and looks very promising as a supplement in the fight against pain.
Inflammation and free radicals that result from being responsible for many of the · problems after joint exercises, SAMe appears to both protect and promote their recovery. Studies suggest that this supplement helps to reduce joint degeneration and arthritis. In principle, it should take 800 to 1200 mg of SAMe per day for joint pain or burning. Take two or three doses of 400 mg on an empty stomach. Knowing that SAMe is destroyed by light, buy pills individually packaged in the aluminum foil or supplied in opaque bottles. Avoid SAMe if you are taking antidepressants or if you suffer from bipolar syndrome or other psychiatric disorder.

Soft mask for oily skin or acne-prone
All skins are different but can be grouped into categories, the two main types are oily and dry skin. As for oily skin, only some parts of the body are affected as the face, scalp and torso and upper back. Oily skin may be the cause of certain diseases such as acne, hair loss (baldness), dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. Moreover, when skin is particularly oily, seborrheic on the calls, it is naturally shiny and pores are dilated. Oily skin is characterized by its resistance, it is indeed not really fragile as thick, and not prone to irritation. It does not wrinkle fine, but as all skin types, it loses its elasticity with age and promotes the appearance of deep wrinkles and blackheads, due to an overproduction of sebum. This excess is also the reason why the skin is oily. The sebaceous hypersecretion starts at the age of puberty and returned to normal levels a few years later. But in some cases, it persists into adulthood for hormonal reasons. Irritation can also cause an excess of sebum. To care for oily skin, it must adopt certain reflexes and especially avoid certain things. The first prohibition is the extraction of pimples and blackheads as it may promote infection and scarring. As for hygiene products and toiletries, irritants, including camphor-based, are best avoided, as well as products containing alcohol.
And as you can find anything in nature, there are also skins both dry and oily. In this case, it works by area, and the "T zone" of the face, including eyebrows, part nasal and mouth, usually fat, while the skin is dry on the sides. We called this kind of mixed skin, period.
To care for oily skin or mixed green clay is highly recommended because it cleanses the facial skin and removes excess sebum. This rock sedentary is widely used for its medicinal properties, especially in dermatology because it contains many trace elements and minerals. The green clay especially suitable for oily skin. It can be applied as a mask on the face, but also on the neck and chest. For combination skin, it suffices to apply the green clay of the area T of the face to minimize irritation of the drier parts of the face. After 15 minutes of application to the face, rinse thoroughly and carefully treated areas and apply a moisturizer. There are green clay in pharmacies in powder form, which is prepared with the mask, but also in the tube.

The telomeres: A new track to live longer
For several years, researchers pay close attention to Telomeres.
These are chromosomal structure involved in the aging of our cells.
We all know that our cells divide to form other cells as well. This is the familiar process of cell division that allows us to keep us alive.
However, telomeres contain DNA that a priori does not resemble any gene, or each time a cell divides, the telomeres shorten.
Reached a critical size with each cell division, telomeres can no longer play their role. Thus, the process of senescence appears and the cells can not happen again. They age and die ...
Telomeres are therefore the counters of our lives by their length. Researchers are looking then the possibilities to extend this length.
Problem! The telomeres are also involved in the process of division of cancer cells, which are known to be immortal.
All this complicates the work of researchers, interested in the attractive idea of extending people's lives by increasing the size of our Telomeres and dangerous process of forcing an increased risk of cancer.
# Physical activity and Telomeres
According to the magazine "What to choose health":
researchers have recently demonstrated that exercise could "extend" the telomeres.
People who are active and telomere length comparable to those of sedentary people ten years younger! "
Tips! Take your sports gear and make physical activity augmenterla length of your telomeres and your life

The vitamin protecting you from aging
According to many experts, the consumption of Vitamin C would be for most people too low. In order to maintain good health and have effective protection against disease, researchers estimate that the Recommended Dietary Allowance for vitamin C should be at least 200 mg per day!
1. What are the advantages of an adequate intake of Vitamin C?
The vitamin is known for fighting;
* Colds
* Fatigue
* Stress
* Preventing cardiovascular disease
* Cataracts
* Macular Degeneration
* Anti-carcinogenic
But that's not all!
We know the benefits of this valuable vitamin in strengthening the immune system. It contributes in particular to the formation of red blood cells while helping the absorption of iron from plants.
But did you know that:
* Vitamin C also helps to improve wound healing.
* At an antioxidant function - very important - in the fight against free radicals, which attack precisely those cells responsible for your aging.
* It helps to produce collagen, a protein essential for the formation of connective tissue of the skin? And yes ladies, your skin also depends on your taking enough Vitamin C ...
Where to find sufficient quantities of Vitamin C?
You should know that fruits and vegetables are the main source of vitamin C. They must eat mainly raw because this vitamin does not support the firing.
It is found mainly in:
* Broccoli
* The strawberry
* Lemon
* The tomato
* The Orange
* Raspberries
* Grapefruit
* Parsley
* The kiwi
2. Anticancer activity!
The scientist, Linus Pauling, two Nobel Prizes stated that high doses of Vitamin C at a rate of 2 g or more per day, were able to fight against carcinogenesis. It was noted in particular that was a help and an additive to chemotherapy against cancer.
Another study of 85,000 nurses who were followed for 16 years, has demonstrated this surprising. Two groups were evaluated. One does not take extra vitamin C, the other yes. However, the group that consumed the vitamin C supplement showed increased protection against coronary heart disease.
Finally, other studies 9 290 000 men and women conducted in 2004 showed that an intake (700 mg over 10 years) Vitamin C 25% reduced risk of coronary heart disease.
3. Small tips:

genetics. If the genetic code is altered, the cells that are abnormal will be repeated and may even become cancerous ..

Geriatric Economics - why develop our seniors improves the well-being
During the past 12 months, the Obama administration was faced with the thorny issue of health reform, a stumbling block that drives commonly partisan debate in Washington usually infertile.
Both sides in this debate, however, converge on one point: the health reform, like any other social benefit, is cardinal to reduce the risk of a potential bankruptcy of the United States if the compensation disbursed under the program exceed the contributions.
At present, the authorities underestimate an important theme inextricably linked to the ongoing debate: the notion of "political geriatric" of the country.
Geriatrics is the branch of medicine that deals with the medical care of the elderly; on gerontology, it is the study of social, psychological and biological aging.
Geriatric policy, in the present context, refers to all government programs designed to improve the welfare of senior citizens and reduce the costs of medical coverage.
Improving geriatric policy can be economically profitable and fiscally attractive to taxpayers.
Currently, two theories of human aging must be discredited in the collective consciousness.
First, there is no age limit set by the doctors, beyond which workers expected to retire. Human beings are different and public health specialists say unanimously that specific factors can affect the ability of an asset to perform its tasks, but as long as that person keeps intact its cognitive and physical abilities, she can work at any age. The retirement age imposed by public authorities is the fact that social policy of biology.
The second point provides some empirical illustration of the previous point.
Many elected officials, business leaders, social activists and opinion leaders in the sports world usually have a few gray hairs.
For example, the U.S. Senate has the highest concentration of elderly people democratically elected in the developed world. The median age of a senator is 63 years, more or less the age of retirement for most workers.
Robert Byrd, 92, of the state of West Virginia, is the eldest of the room, followed by Senator Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey.
If our societies are willing to be governed by the elderly, then it becomes convenient to gloss that seniors have an invaluable experience, even if it is currently untapped.
In the West, the gradual rise in life expectancy was positively correlated to the increase in medical costs over the years because, of course, living longer means more health care costs.
It is unfortunate that our postmodern societies, filled with ageism, tolerate that older be banned from the productive sectors because of their alleged lack of economic productivity or social utility.
The social position is wrong because we waste a substantial part of GDP previously invested in traditional education, corporate training, health insurance and other benefits required for a productive workforce.
In the case of the United States, these investments are in the billions of dollars.
Gerontologists recognized as JW Rowe and RL Kahn found that one of the cornerstones of successful aging is a life force, which in turn student's cognitive abilities and decreases the likelihood of illness or disability.
Four distinct approaches can help to maximize the well-being of seniors, reduce medical costs and increase social welfare. For the sake of efficiency, the directions of the relevant ministries (health, social services, the third age, etc..) Can be horizontally integrated to create an ad-hoc agency, identical to what was done in the intelligence reports -unien.
The state must develop in tandem with the private sector, an online database to assess the availability of expertise in the elderly, if this task is executed, this website can even be profitable once its popularity will increase the number of visitors.
The four programs are:
1) Retired helping their former companies
Recent retirees are part of the site, indicating their professional competence and preference of the industry. The companies then invite former employees (or other workers with similar skills) to their experience on specific projects such as integrating information technology, business organization, staff training, etc.. This paradigm is doubly beneficial to society as a retired staff experienced is significantly cheaper than external consultants and more familiar with the company or the industry.
2) Seniors supporting children
Seniors may be involved in extracurricular activities from kindergarten to high school. They can even teach based on their experience. Various "exchange programs" can be arranged, for example, between nursing homes and academic institutions to foster cohesion between generations.
3) Seniors supporting youth organizations and youth rehabilitation
The experiences of the seniors can help relieve troubled youth and meet other needs. In certain circumstances, can allow older prisoners has shown good behavior and a clear desire for social reintegration to advise other people out with the company.
4) Seniors in competitions at national level
In the same logic of life, the authorities should encourage national sports competitions for the elderly. Although the idea of "Olympics of the 3rd age" is a bit surreal now, a national tournament is a more feasible and potentially more profitable.
Both sides in this debate, however, converge on one point: the health reform, like any other social benefit, is cardinal to reduce the risk of a potential bankruptcy of the United States if the compensation disbursed under the program exceed the contributions.
At present, the authorities underestimate an important theme inextricably linked to the ongoing debate: the notion of "political geriatric" of the country.
Geriatrics is the branch of medicine that deals with the medical care of the elderly; on gerontology, it is the study of social, psychological and biological aging.
Geriatric policy, in the present context, refers to all government programs designed to improve the welfare of senior citizens and reduce the costs of medical coverage.
Improving geriatric policy can be economically profitable and fiscally attractive to taxpayers.
Currently, two theories of human aging must be discredited in the collective consciousness.
First, there is no age limit set by the doctors, beyond which workers expected to retire. Human beings are different and public health specialists say unanimously that specific factors can affect the ability of an asset to perform its tasks, but as long as that person keeps intact its cognitive and physical abilities, she can work at any age. The retirement age imposed by public authorities is the fact that social policy of biology.
The second point provides some empirical illustration of the previous point.
Many elected officials, business leaders, social activists and opinion leaders in the sports world usually have a few gray hairs.
For example, the U.S. Senate has the highest concentration of elderly people democratically elected in the developed world. The median age of a senator is 63 years, more or less the age of retirement for most workers.
Robert Byrd, 92, of the state of West Virginia, is the eldest of the room, followed by Senator Frank Lautenberg of New Jersey.
If our societies are willing to be governed by the elderly, then it becomes convenient to gloss that seniors have an invaluable experience, even if it is currently untapped.
In the West, the gradual rise in life expectancy was positively correlated to the increase in medical costs over the years because, of course, living longer means more health care costs.
It is unfortunate that our postmodern societies, filled with ageism, tolerate that older be banned from the productive sectors because of their alleged lack of economic productivity or social utility.
The social position is wrong because we waste a substantial part of GDP previously invested in traditional education, corporate training, health insurance and other benefits required for a productive workforce.
In the case of the United States, these investments are in the billions of dollars.
Gerontologists recognized as JW Rowe and RL Kahn found that one of the cornerstones of successful aging is a life force, which in turn student's cognitive abilities and decreases the likelihood of illness or disability.
Four distinct approaches can help to maximize the well-being of seniors, reduce medical costs and increase social welfare. For the sake of efficiency, the directions of the relevant ministries (health, social services, the third age, etc..) Can be horizontally integrated to create an ad-hoc agency, identical to what was done in the intelligence reports -unien.
The state must develop in tandem with the private sector, an online database to assess the availability of expertise in the elderly, if this task is executed, this website can even be profitable once its popularity will increase the number of visitors.
The four programs are:
1) Retired helping their former companies
Recent retirees are part of the site, indicating their professional competence and preference of the industry. The companies then invite former employees (or other workers with similar skills) to their experience on specific projects such as integrating information technology, business organization, staff training, etc.. This paradigm is doubly beneficial to society as a retired staff experienced is significantly cheaper than external consultants and more familiar with the company or the industry.
2) Seniors supporting children
Seniors may be involved in extracurricular activities from kindergarten to high school. They can even teach based on their experience. Various "exchange programs" can be arranged, for example, between nursing homes and academic institutions to foster cohesion between generations.
3) Seniors supporting youth organizations and youth rehabilitation

Your acne and society, the social impacts of acne
"The wise man does not stop at superficial and equipment, he sees more deeply.
Sage is one who sees things more in depth, which opens our eyes to the hidden dimension of Being. "
Father Anselm Grün
Unfortunately, the reality is not always as beautiful as this quote from Father Anselm Grün.
We can not deny the fact that in this world of beauty magazines, we feel the need to always have a good appearance. How would you feel if there were red spots on your face and fat?
Of course, this would matter much.
When you have acne, it certainly causes an effect that makes you feel bad, but not only that, the following are the results caused by more serious acne in today's society:
- Social withdrawal
- The decrease in self-esteem
- Lack of confidence
- Poor body image
- Embarrassment
- The feeling of depression
- Anger
- The concern
- Frustration
- The increase in the unemployment rate
These are, of facts that no one can deny.
There are three key points to consider in finding the best way to solve the problems of acne:
The solutions take time, never have recourse to miracle cures. Keep in mind that acne will not be defeated in one night, it's a matter of patience and dedication. The patience to wait the time it takes to heal and dedication to lead the fight against acne is ultimately necessary.
All methods do not work for everyone. Do not think that the method which has functioned for A and B work as well for you. Each of us has a unique skin type, so consider all options to be able to choose one.
You may need the advice of a dermatologist. Do not try anything. Acne is a problem of sensitive skin, it therefore needs to be treated in a sensitive manner. Ask for help to an expert or you may worsen your condition.
The company favors those with a good appearance. It's unfortunate, but it seems clear that we do not meet this standard when we have acne. In this society, we must trust in us and we can trust in us only if we feel comfortable with our appearance. You will feel more comfortable when you have healthy skin.

Three reasons for an outbreak of acne and pimples. First, the sebum can be secreted excessively in the follicle. Then, the follicle may be blocked for various reasons. Finally, bacteria can grow within the follicle. These three factors can be combined and appear at the same time, but the fact is that male sex hormones called androgens stimulate the sebaceous glands too much and cause excessive production of sebum, which flows to the skin and gives the greasy appearance. The channel may subsequently be found congested or overloaded plug and the pore. The result is clear: a comedo or a blackhead or even a microcyst appears white. Inflammation can then develop within the follicles and cause infection, leading to the emergence of different buttons: pustules, nodules and papules.
Skin acne may be the result of stress, which explains many evils, but heredity also plays an important role. However, anti acne solutions exist and guarantee excellent results, so it is advisable to consult a dermatologist at the earliest outbreaks to be prescribed appropriate treatment. Different acne treatments are indeed possible, but they each correspond to the types of various skin and acne, which is why the opinion of the dermatologist is crucial as it may prescribe topical retinoids for acne marked, or antibiotics or benzoyl peroxide for antibacterial and anti inflammatory to clean the skin deep.

Then it's time to end the skin acne and get rid of unsightly buttons. And regarding the scars, the laser can be very effective but requires a long recovery, at least one month. It is recommended for scarring.
