how to cure stretch marks naturally

With a little patience and determination, you can greatly reduce or get rid of stretch marks.

Stretch marks are the unsightly result of rapid weight gain, growth, or pregnancy.

Stretch marks can be identified by red, burgundy, or purple lines. With time, stretch marks fade until they are very light white, pink, or silver.



Treatment before, during and after the appearance of stretch marks can be very affective.

Follow these simple steps to get rid of your stretch marks.


1
If you are planning on become pregnant, start preparing your skin now. Applying cocoa butter or lotion twice a day will keep your skin moisturized and flexible.

If you already have stretch marks, there are some things you can do to reduce or eliminate the scars. Take a capsule of Vitamin A or E and break open. Spread the vitamin on the area affected by stretch marks daily. This will encourage your skin to heal itself and rebuild.
3

Stay out of the sun. Sunlight on new scars can make them permanent, so make sure to keep covered up while you are gardening until your stretch marks are gone.

Eat healthy. Eating a diet that is high in vitamin C, E, and zinc will keep your skin healthy and supple, allowing it to stretch and heal. Some foods high in these nutrients are: Bran, nuts, and berries.

Drink water. Eight to ten glasses a day will keep your skin soft and flexible, and will rush all of the vitamins to your skin for speedy healing.
