exercise, - types of flushing

[Guest guest]

I have been reading about human growth hormone- I'm sure all you guys in the

US are very familar with this stuff. I understand that it is made naturally

after vigourous aerobic exercise and hypothesised that after starving

oneself (not advisable!- no point in being a good looking corpse).

Exercise seems to be a major rosacea trigger for many, myself included.

Although, after a week or two working out and ignoring the stares in the

gym. I have found that my skin, when relaxed looks a lot better. I wonder if

this is due to a lowered blood pressure or HGH..

I know we have been advised to do anything that causes flushing but I seem

to have different types of flushing. As mentionned I flush INCREDIBLY

intensely during and after vigourous exercise, I also get immediate rosacea

symtoms and the pimples rough skin are a bit of a nightmare. Despite this

the symtoms clear up more quickly than if I am flushing say to a warm room,

or stress or food even. The rosacea symtoms caused by this type of flush

last for longer and results in longer lasting skin sensitivity in comparison

to an exercise induced flush. I wonder if the vigourous exercise does indeed

stimulate Human growth hormone and as a result the skin thickens a

little..... or whether it is just the lowered blood pressure, or it is a

combination of other variables ie skin gets oilier when exercising, more

nutrients are passed to the skin etc

It's hard to know what to do as less vigourous exercise (not getting the

heart beat really going type) has been advised for us rosacea folk. I find

though that mild exercise, although better than nothing, doesn't really make

me feel as good as a good workout.

This leads to a bit of a dilema because I wonder if the intense flush caused

by the aerobic exercise is doing long term damage.....
