Acne is a disorder of the skin's oil glands (sebaceous glands) that results in plugged pores and
outbreaks of lesions commonly called pimples or cysts. Acne lesions usually occur on the face,
neck, back, chest, and shoulders.
Nearly 17 million people in the United States have acne, making it the most common skin
disease. Acne is an extremely common skin condition with a prevalence of 80% in female and
90% in male teenagers. But it can occur at any age. A growing number of adults are being
diagnosed with adult acne.
A lot of people look at acne as just a quote "skin problem". But for those who have it know it's
much more than that. The insecurities that can develop and the self-esteem issues for someone
who is suffering from acne can be devastating and often lead to emotional problems that can last
for years. Acne is not only a skin problem. The reason that many people have failed to clear up
their acne, is simply because they have never addressed the underlying cause!

2. What can worsen acne?
- Adolescence
- Menstrual cycle - acne often worsens premenstrual or mid - cycle
- Prescription medications, such as certain birth control pills.
- Being overweight--increased insulin production can signal the body to release extra male
hormones, called androgens, which are involved in pimple formation.
- Stress
- Pore-clogging (comedogenic) cosmetics, sunscreens, moisturizers, greases, and oils
- Poor diet--excessive sugar, trans fats, fried, salt, and processed foods. Insufficient intake of
water, healthy oils, fruit and vegetables, and fiber.
- Excessive intake of foods such as chocolate, caffeine, carbonated beverages, milk products
- Waste accumulation in the gastro-intestinal tract, affecting the health of every cell in the body
Hormonal imbalance combined with inner toxicity that buildup in your
blood and lymph fluid that's causing the acne. Toxic build-up of the body cause also very acidic
inner environment. Body's internal system especially liver is not "deactivating" and "clearing"
excess hormones from the system. Body produces too many of the wrong hormones.
Too many of androgenic hormones floating around then your skin's oil glands go into
"overdrive" producing way too much sebum or skin oil. This mixture of excess skin oil and
sebum and highly congesting blood toxins and body's acidity create the perfect "breeding
environment" in and on your skin for acne bacteria to grow like crazy causing redness,
inflammation, swelling, puss, clogged pores, and finally full blown acne.
