CAUSE OF ACNE AND PREVENTION

   Normally every people will have a breakout of acne at any point in their life. Acne is different from pimple . Pimple will be cleared within a weeks while the acne remain most longer. Acne occurs on face ,chest, back, upper shoulder ,upper arm. Acne occurs for both sex due the increase in the hormone level. 

   Commonly the acne starts during puberty (between 10 and 13 )and tends to worse in people with oil skin. During puberty, both boys and girls produce high level of androgen .Male sex also includes testosterone. Boys have most severe cases in the early stage where women have likely men in their 30s and beyond . Testosterone will increase the secretion of oil in skin’s oil gland .Thus the sebum leads to opening of hair follicle on face, neck, chest and back. Bacteria grow in clogged follicle .This clogging break the wall of follicle under pressure buildup. This will easily spread to near tissues which future form papule called inflammatory acne.
   Almost more than half of the pregnant women develop acne due to increase in the hormone level during their first trimester . It usually go away when the hormone returns their normal level after the childbirth . Pregnant women should avoid use isotretinon medication which leads to miscarriages .So safe action is to use good skin care. Wash your face gently ,use oil free ,alcohol free, non-brasive cleanser. 


   Washing face more than twice may cause more harm than good. Use face cleaner than deodorant body soap which cause irritation and affect the inflamed skin. Avoid harm scrubbing with cloth. Gently wash the face with soft cloth or sponge. Avoid using fragrances ,oil ,promodes and gels if they get on your face may get into the pores and cause irritation. Avoid touching the cheek, chin ,face on your hand. Never pick or pop the pimple with you finger. UV rays from the sun may increase inflammation and redness and cause dark colouration. Certain foods like Chocolate will not cause pimple. Junk, greasy food should be avoided. Add more fruits, vegetables and grain in your diet.If you have oily hair best use regularly shampoo.

WHY ATLANTIC AND PACIFIC OCEAN ARE NOT MIXED?

Nearly 72% of the earth is filled with water and it is present with different names- oceans, seas, rivers. Why are they named differently? There are five oceans namely Artic ocean, Atlantic Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Indian ocean and Antarctic ocean . All the oceans are different in their physical and biological character called ocean clines. When we look at the Atlantic and Pacific Ocean junction, they do not mix. Is there any invisible Wall in between them? Many scientists have conducted research to solve this mystery. The Atlantic and Pacific Ocean have different chemical composition. The salinity of the water in the Atlantic Ocean is five times more than the Pacific Ocean. The density of water is also different, so even marine animals in Atlantic Ocean will not go to the Pacific Ocean. They cannot survive in other oceans. Atlantic and Pacific Ocean meet at Cape Horn. The narrow straight line formed by the water bodies is called Drake Strait. The Pacific Ocean is ...

The Chemical Lake

 Spotted Lake or Lake khiluk in Canada is richly concentrated with various minerals. It contains dense deposits of magnesium sulfate, calcium, and sodium sulfates. It also contains high concentrations of eight other minerals and lower amounts of silver and titanium. Most of the water in the lake evaporates over the summer, revealing colorful mineral deposits. Large ‘spots’ on the lake appear and are colored according to the mineral composition and seasonal amount of precipitation. Magnesium sulfate, which crystallizes in the summer, is a major contributor to spot color.  Originally known to the First Nations of the Okanagan Valley (Native American Tribe) as Khiluk, Spotted Lake was for centuries and remains revered as a sacred site thought to provide therapeutic waters. It is the most mineralized lake in the world. Each spot holds a different cure due to the unique chemical content found within each puddle. Lake Khiluk is considered a saline endorheic alkali lake. The Okanag...

Why is the Pacific Ocean shrinking and the Atlantic Ocean is getting wider?

Twenty million years ago there was no Atlantic Ocean. But then, thanks to plate tectonics, the South American and North American continents were separated by a rift valley that eventually turned into the Atlantic Ocean. The complementary shapes of the South American and African continents have long been noticed, but it wasn't until the 1960s that the theory of plate tectonics became accepted as the explanation. These days, the Atlantic Ocean is growing at a rate of five centimetres per year, as new sea floor is created by volcanic activity along its mid-ocean ridge.        On the other hand, the much older Pacific Ocean is currently estimated to be shrinking by two to three centimetres each year. Again, this comes down to plate tectonics because the Pacific Ocean has subduction zones on three sides - where the Pacific plate submerges beneath other plates.  Since there are very few subduction zones in the Atlantic, Indian and Arctic oceans...
