It never ceases to amaze me the number of (so called) professionals that continue to insist that diet and acne are not related. Acne pimples start as the result of your body’s attempt to rid itself of a hormone overload by sending the excess out through your skin in sebum oil. Adding more chemicals and hormones that may be in your food only adds fuel to the fire.
For some of us, acne first begins to appear in our early teen years. Your hormone levels jump to excessive levels and your body is sending the overload out through your skin emulsified in sebum oil. All acne pimples begin with too much sebum oil on your skin.
Since your body is already overloaded with hormones, adding more would be foolish, don’t you think? Well, consuming any kind of dairy product does just that. Regular milk, for instance, contains fifty-nine different hormones from the cow and even more hormones from the steroids that were given to the cow to stimulate milk production. Any decent acne diet will stress the elimination of dairy from your diet.
If acne follows you into your adult years, your body’s low tolerance level most likely extends to the chemicals used in processed foods, as well. To your body, these chemicals are no different to the hormones of your younger years. And, it reacts the same way, sending them out in sebum oil that starts your acne outbreaks.
An effective diet for acne prone skin will eliminate chemical laden processed foods from your diet in order to stop acne formation before it begins.
These examples indicate that, no matter what others may have told you, there is an absolute link between diet and acne. Just never forget that acne starts on the inside. To get rid of the outer problem (acne), you must help your body regain the internal balance that is the root of your problem.
