How Does Garlic Help to Treat Acne?
  • The allicin present in garlic possesses anti – bacterial, anti-fungal, anti – viral and anti – septic properties which kills the bacteria causing acne.
  • It has anti – inflammatory properties which help to reduce the swelling, pain and irritation.
  • It helps to improve the blood circulation that allows the skin tissues to properly receive all the vitamins and minerals which are essential for healthy skin.
  • It has sulfur compounds called thiacremonon, which acts as a drying agent. It also helps in reducing the appearance of acne scars.
  • It is an excellent source of various acne combating nutrients like vitamins (C and B6), minerals, selenium, copper, allicin, zinc (used to control sebum) and other phyto-nutrients.
  • It fights with insulin resistance which is linked to acne. The use of garlic oil helps to improve the insulin sensitivity.
  • Its anti – oxidant property helps to fight against free radicals causing damage to the skin cells.
  • Regular intake of garlic will help to strengthen the immune system.
