Acne Prevention With Hormone Balancing Diet

You may want to raise this subject with your physician; and then again, maybe you do not. There are proponents for acne treatment by diet in the medical profession, just as there are opponents to the idea largely because there is an absence of scientific evidence to back it up. However, there has simply got to be a link between what you eat and what turns out on your face as acne lesions and spots, otherwise, there aren’t a lot of things that will make sense in the treatment and cure of acne.

Watching my sister grow up instigated my first interest. We all had acnes, but hers responded in the most intriguing manner to peanuts; anytime she had peanuts, the lesions worsened, and if she stayed off of it for up to three days, the spots would literally vanish. We were young and we were not interested in anything that clinical medicine had to offer on the subject. What mattered to us was that by simple abstinence from peanuts, my sister was able to cure her acnes. The same happened for her consumption of animal based oils.

Funny enough, the same results were not reciprocated with any other one of us siblings, so we just put Anna down to being superior. But my mind wandered back to the subject as I started to work in dermatology research. Perhaps my sister just had a specific allergic reaction to peanuts and oil, which had faded into oblivion as she aged, but which had caused her to respond with acne outbreaks when she consumed them back then when we were young.

The only way to determine that for sure was to begin to do more research on acnes and on their possible causes. What I found was not so much dietary acne causes as dietary acne cures. There are suggestions in several traditional and cultural forms of medicine that alluded to the possibility of acnes being caused by the wrong kind of diet, and the most vocal about that possibility was the philosophy of Chinese medicine; and on the other side, I found a lot of reports, mostly by proponents of alternative medicine, that pointed directly to a diet helping to even out the endocrine imbalances that tend to worsen a condition of acne.

It is a fact that hyperactive hormones either cause or contribute greatly to the incidence of acne in most patients. This is strongly backed by evidence from the fact that the inflammatory skin disease often starts up in adolescents just coming of age, and tends to fade as they become adults. Added to this is the fact that acnes are more frequent in females at various points on their menstrual cycle, at pregnancy, and even at menopause.

However, by eating the right kind of food (and performing aerobic exercise) as often as possible, you can help to restore the hormonal imbalances in your system and thereby cure your acne. I have found that the dietary cure for acne, although incomplete without proper aerobics, simply consists of a lot of natural herbal teas, and much of vegetables. To keep your system in healthy check during your acne medication, you might want to cut down on the meat and animal fats.

Acne Cures At Home – In 2 Days

I get acnes about as much as any other person, maybe even a bit more. See I have very oily skin, and my diet is not exactly what you will call healthy. I love carbohydrates, and I can hardly get enough of sugar. So yes, you got me, I am a bit overweight, and when I get the pimples they are really all over my face.

However, I have this incredible technique that I use to get rid of the angry red spots that try to make my life so miserable, and in the next few lines, I am going to share with you a natural secret that is as old as time, but which so many people appear to be unaware of. It is the secret of how to cure your acnes within two days. Yes, you read it right: two days!

The first day of your acne cure program has to be the day after you notice the first couple of blackheads on your face, or perhaps the angry spots themselves. You want to wake up that morning and stretch out a little bit. Then, you are going to do something you probably have not done in a while – you are going to put on your jogging shoes and you are going to run. I suggest you do that for about thirty minutes that morning, maintaining a strong and steady pace that has you sweating profusely within the first couple of minutes.

Let me warn you now; if you have not run in a while, you’ll probably feel like stopping after the first sixty seconds. May I suggest you think about your next date, and how the brother is going to dislike looking you straight in the eye and kiss you in spite of the bright red spots all over your face? That ought to give you the boost you need to push on through.

So you get back home at the end of the run, you want to walk right into the shower and run it warm but not hot. You will stall beneath the spray without making a move for about three straight minutes while your system cools down and your heart rate returns to normal. That day, when you bathe, you will have to be using an antiseptic soap or something of that nature. Today you are going to have to sponge your body down so that all the pores are cleaned out of all the bacteria that may have accumulated underneath the skin but that have been pushed up by your sweat. And when you step out of the shower, you are going to rub down gently with your towel.

On this beautiful morning, you will have to lay off the carbohydrates for a bit. Today, your diet will consist of egg yolks in the morning, with a lot of water before you go out for whatever business you have to deal with. I understand how that you may feel hungrier than usual, but if you want the treatment to work, you are going to have to stay with the program. What you must do as the pangs hit you is to drink a lot of water each time.

In the afternoon, you will be taking a lot of fruit – fibrous things that have low calorie content; and in the evening, you will be eating a hefty meal that comprises a lot of vegetables. Eat to your fill, but you will have no sugars and no animal fats or oils. And then before you go to bed, you will have to have your bath again. The next day, all you have to do is repeat the program. By the time you awaken on the third morning, your entire household will wonder at the clean skin on your face.

Mind, this two-day remedy for the disease is all natural and requires no other medication, but you must do it at the early stages of the infection so that it does not get a chance to take root.

Herbs Can Cure Acne

It might startle you, but cures for acne are readily available at shops all over the city. Even online – especially online – you will find a lot that are both affordable and easy to apply. Why look any further?

Colloidal Silver is a rather common acne cure that has been around for quite a while. It is an antibiotic that can be applied directly onto your skin or swallowed with some water. Within days, the disease could be gone. Of course, you may have to repeat the treatment from time to time, but since it is an acne cure, you may not mind so much.

The effectiveness of several acne cures depends on the sensitivity of your skin. However, one trick that I have always known to work is the application of patience. If you will be patient, you will give yourself sufficient time to observe the best results of the cure. Try some patience.

If you hate your acne enough, you can try curing it with garlic capsules. As a matter of fact, you need look no further when looking for a reliable acne home cure. They power boost your immune system, killing bacteria in the process.

Many acne cures work by lowering your cholesterol levels. It is a fact after all that the condition does derive strength from excess cholesterol. You can help by not consuming it all that much too. Think you can manage that?

Curing acne is easy when you know where to look. I would suggest that you begin by looking to history and learning how it was dealt with in those times. A lot of today’s cures are based simply on those.

Burdock and dandelion roots can be found almost everywhere around you. Bet you never would have thought they were excellent acne cures. Well they are; and they are easy to come about in regions where there hasn’t been too much contamination by industrialization. So, you may just need to step out a bit and find your acne cure.

Sure you want to cure your acne, but you don’t want to cause yourself complications in the process. See that the acne cure you find and are trying on is one that has been certified by your dermatologist especially for you. It might work for someone else, but what counts is that it solves your own problems. Don’t go thinking someone else’s will work for you either.

Some of the best cures for acne are herbal in nature. If you are really interested in getting rid of the condition, you have to keep an open mind about which acne cures you can try, and which you cannot. Not everything is conventional, you know, and acne is certainly a disease that does not discriminate amongst its sufferers.
