It and these little bumps appear when keratin and that's the protein that helps protect our skin.

builds up and it forms tiny plugs around the hair follicles.

And yeah, it often runs in families.
podcast-host
So interestingly that you've had it and your children now have it.

So it absolutely is not caused by being unclean or not showering after exercise or sweat getting trapped in the skin.

Food causes it, so I wouldn't definitely put children on a restrictive diet.
podcast-host
You know, just keep that healthy, varied diet going, lots of protein, omega-3 fats, cutler seed oils, uh, lots of colourful fruit and veg.

podcast-host
So I would perhaps cut down on that.
podcast-host
Keep your showers warm rather than very hot.
podcast-host
Use gentle, fragrance-free body products.
podcast-host
I do think the ameliorate is.
podcast-host
A good brand, so I think that is very useful.
