Natural acne treatments can provide sufferers with effective solutions to their skin care problems. 

Are you a teenager with spots or an adult with breakouts of acne? Have you tried a variety of over the counter creams and lotions, prescription medications, so-called miracle cures or country remedies? Are you still looking for the one cure that will work? Are you confused by the conflicting advice given by friends, family and health care professionals?

Most acne remedies look at treating the symptoms – the zits, pimples, blackheads, whiteheads etc – by applying creams & lotions or by taking antibiotics and other drugs. These may produce temporary relief but will need to be used regularly and may have side effects.

The answer to an acne-free skin lies in a natural or holistic approach. This means treating your body as a whole and helping the body to heal itself from the inside out.  Acne is not only a cosmetic problem, it is an external sign of something wrong within your body and you need to restore your body to a state of balance where no disease can exist, not only acne.

There are 4 mains causes of acne:

Blockage of the pores by dead epithelial cells
Excessive oil (sebum) production
Bacterial infection
Infection & inflammation of  hair follicles & surrounding tissue

Conventional medicine looks only at reducing the production of sebum, killing the acne bacteria or reducing the build-up of dead epithelial cells.  This does not address the main factors responsible for creating the environment in which acne can exist.

In order to have acne, the following conditions must exist:

Hormonal irregularities – certain hormones such as androgens & progesterone stimulate the production of sebum. Excessive hormone production causes over-stimulation of the oil glands.
Toxic build-up – this occurs when your liver, intestines & kidneys cannot deal with the elimination of toxic waste because they are clogged or overloaded with toxins themselves.
Genetic tendencies – mainly the over-sensitivity of the oil glands to increases in androgen levels.

Natural acne treatments would look at & treat the causes of hormonal irregularities & toxic build-up. They would help your body to regulate the output of hormones so that they are in balance. It would also help purify your body of toxins & strengthen your organs of elimination (liver, intestines & kidneys).

To do this, natural acne treatments would include:

A nutritional and supplementation plan
A comprehensive cleansing program for the liver, bowels & digestive system
Stress reduction plan
Sleep optimisation plan
Natural skin care plan

Acne can be totally and permanently eliminated through the use of natural acne treatments.
