Scientists at the University of Wyoming discovered that most plants â even those on soils containing selenium â contained 10 parts per million or less of selenium, whereas a selenium level of 14,990 ppm was found in a sample of Astragalus racemosus, which is a selenium accumulator.
Popping Pimples Damages the Skin. Yes, popping pimples really is as bad for our skin as the experts (and Mom) says it is. An inflamed acne pimple happens when the pore becomes engorged with excess sebum, dead skin cells, bacteria and, often, pus. Next thing you know, you're standing in front of the mirror debating if the pimple is ready to pop.
Maybe it's because you're releasing all of that toxic goo from your pores, or it could be because you're shocked by the amount of stuff that can come out of your skin. Or maybe you'll never quite understand why. In any case, popping a pimple can cause serious damage to your skin. So instead of going to town on your own blemishes, watch these so-nasty-you-can't-look-away videos that we've unscientifically ranked for your viewing pleasure. True fact: these are pretty gross. Proceed with caution.
