Is the bad skin from genetics, or food, or what? ps ive masturbated everyday since 6th grade, dunno if that has anything to with it

Replies nik1 Posted at 2:58 am on Nov. 23, 2008 The skin is the largest organ of a body.  It is exposed to everything from the sun, pollutants in the air, chemicals and pollutants in the water, detergents, soaps, shampoos and germs we pick up from other people.  Everything we touch is passed on to the skin.  When we shake hands with someone or touch a germ infected door knob and then scratch our face, pick our nose or rub our eyes it is transferred onto the skin. The sun, hormonal changes, improper care of the skin and genetics are the biggest factors in what affects the skin.  Food we eat also has an effect. Here's some tips:  http://kidshealth.org/teen/your_body/take_care/skin_tips.html dreamweaver Posted at 10:21 pm on Nov. 22, 2008 Could be many things really. From genetics to eating habits to other bad habits (such as not wearing sunscreen and getting way too much sun). If you're very concerned about it, try talking to a dermatologist about it and see what kind of measures you can do to get it healthier looking again.

Ju5tin Posted at 10:10 pm on Nov. 22, 2008 Sounds like someone needs more Zinc, Selenium, Omega-3 Fatty Acids, Vitamins C, E, A, K, and B complex, and Silica in their diets. return2me Posted at 10:09 pm on Nov. 22, 2008 i eat badly, and my skin is alright. so ill jump to the genetics conclusion. MixedDelight Posted at 10:09 pm on Nov. 22, 2008 Masturbation has no bearing on skin condition. Your awful eating habits do. It's also called puberty. telomere13 Posted at 10:09 pm on Nov. 22, 2008 It could be sun damage. xBeautifulTragedyx Posted at 10:08 pm on Nov. 22, 2008 Probably a mixture of genetics and food habits.
