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.

Acne can also be a potential side effect if you take certain medications, including steroids and anticonvulsants.
