Acne is one of the most common skin diseases. It affects approximately 85% of teenagers, as well as an increasing number of adults. It occurs predominantly on the face, back, neck, chest and shoulders, as these areas of the body contain a large number of sebaceous (skin oil producing) glands. Sebaceous glands produce and secrete a mixture of oils and waxes known as sebum, which acts to protect and moisturize the skin and hair and make the skin waterproof.

In acne, the body produces too much sebum causing greasy skin and blocked pores. Bacteria can become trapped in the excess sebum and multiply, irritating the skin and resulting in the formation of blackheads, pimples and cysts. SkinB5's Acne treatment powder treats acne by helping to control this over production of excess skin oil.

This may be due to the essential role of Vitamin B5 (pantothenic acid) in the manufacture of Coenzyme A, a compound that is vital for the metabolism and utilization of fats in the body. Vitamin B5 supports the healthy function of the skin cells and can help to relieve nervous tension and stress, factors that may exacerbate the acne condition.

Zinc and Vitamin A, two other key ingredients in SkinB5, are important antioxidant nutrients that support the proper function of the oil producing sebaceous glands and assist in controlling the production of sebum. Further, Biotin can support the growth of healthy hair and strengthen brittle nails.

SkinB5 not only treats acne, it can help to improve general well-being! A drink that clears acne is a totally new concept that may actually work.
