Is it because we don't eat enough fruits and vegetables?
Or anything else?
Do you have any idea why are boils caused?

Because of not eating fruits and vegetables for
a long time, your skin would be more proned
to infections by staphylococcus bacterium,
which causes boils.
Most often on the neck or a similar area,
where there is a friction with the garments or clothes.
It can also be there on face, and on the back,
some times in the armpits even.
A good diet or with ample fruits & vegetables
can help prevent them from erupting.
A severe lack of fruits & vegetable in the diet also may lead to a disease called scurvy. this I think a deficiency of some b-complex.

Boils are one kind of infection that is caused by bacteria.In some seasons bacteria attack on us they circulate in our blood,our blood can not fight with them due to deficiency of immunoglobulins.i.e.a kind of protein that protect our body against infection.the fighting procedure is seen in form of boils.Antipyretic pills will help in curing them.
