Acne's upsetting problems
If you discover that you recently suffer from acne, don't
desperate, there are possible cures for this skin disease. If
the cause of acne has been established, a solution is possible.
Anyone with or who has had acne can tell you, how many times a
day they've cleaned their faces with anti-bacterial facial wash
and still faced new pimples the next day.
The same goes for all the other topical creams for acne
available in the market, which kills germs and open up blocked
pores. These may provide temporary relief, but you will never
experience acne free skin by only focusing on acne from the
outside.
The real and main causes of acne are hormone imbalance, water
retention and toxins. Let's talk about hormones. Hormones are
chemicals that are produced by glands in the body and circulate
in the bloodstream that control numerous body functions
including sebum (skin oil) production and regulation. The
hormones that are responsible for acne are called androgens.
This is because androgens stimulate the sebaceous glands (glands
in the skin that secrete oil to the surface of the skin.)
When you have too many androgens in the blood, your sebaceous
glands begin to over-produce oil in the skin. You have to be
clear that it is not only oil that will cause acne but it's the
initial problem you want to resolve.
The next part of the problem is toxins in the blood and lymph.
When your liver and kidneys are not properly cleansing the blood
and are overloaded, the liver is unable to properly 'deactivate'
used hormones and remove them from the body.
The combination of oil, bacteria and toxins blocks pores
generate Acne. Inside the blocked pores also are bacteria which
grow in a low-oxygen environment. This bacteria aggravates the
skin condition and causes an inflammatory disease, otherwise
known as acne.
Hormone imbalance doesn't only cause acne, but can be
responsible for many other problems including: allergies,
fatigue, headaches, mood swings and insomnia.
For most teenagers, hormone imbalance occurs during puberty when
the body is busy producing hormones for growth, maturity and
reproduction. In case of adult acne, it predominately arises
from the inability of the liver and kidneys to effectively
eliminate excess hormones and toxins from the blood.
In order to cure your acne you have to be able to get your
hormones into balance by feeding your body the key nutrients
that aid hormone regulation in the glands and also strengthen
the liver which is the other hormone regulatory system. You have
to also apply a topic that trigger the self healing process of
your skin, this way you will avoid further blemishes while you
are treating the main cause of acne.
