subject: Finding The Natural Treatment Options For Acne** [print this page]


While many focus upon the biological or medicinal side of

acne, there are many researchers who are trying to see if

there might be a natural cure to this disease; a disease

, which effects so, many people.

One commonality that these researchers are finding is that

acne, although genetically passed on, can be controlled

with diet. Some scientists may disagree, but we've all

heard the old adage, "what you put in is what you get out".

This may be true with acne; even in it's most severe forms.

First and foremost, obesity has been thought as a major

factor contributing to acne. With an obese person, there is

an increased activity in the glands of the body, and this

includes the glands below hair follicles, which produce

oil. Losing weight and exercising each and every day may

help immensely. This requires no drugs, just self-control

and willpower.

Diet is another major concern for naturalists striving for

a cure. They are finding that a diet rich in vegetable and

fruit helps significantly balance hormones that effect

glands. Vegetables and fruit help keep the body in

homeostasis, or in balance.

The intake of fatty foods, such as Trans Fats, or those

made from animal products (milk based products, i.e.

margarine and even vegetable oils), also increases gland

activity in the body. There is a type of oil; however, that

may be good at fighting against acne.

Omega-3 oils, commonly found in fish and sea animals, is

natural oil that is good for the body, especially for the

skin. Other foods that contain oils, sugars, caffeine,

carbonization and heavy amounts of salts, should be avoided

at all costs for sufferers of acne.

Zinc, a mineral gaining much popularity in the natural

world for its medicinal qualities, helps fight the clogging

of pores that leads to acne. In the form of gluconate or

sulfate, it helps the skin heal blemishes and helps to

balance hormonal activity.

Zinc has recently been found to be as effective as

prescription strength tetracycline. Other vitamins,

including vitamin A and B6 may help substantially in

hormonal balance, resulting in clearer, healthier skin.

In any case, the positive effects seen from the uses of

natural medications and a proper diet cannot be ignored.

Even when compared to synthetic treatment options, natural

healing with vitamins and minerals may help even the most

severe cases.
