Acne Program - An Introduction
Acne is the most common skin disorder. Over 10% of Americans age
25 - 44 have acne. Over 85% Americans age 12 - 25 will have acne at
one time or the other.
If ignored, acne can become infected, create scars, and
pockmarks that become permanent on your face. I don't want this to
happen to you, so I have written a series of articles on how to
clear your acne.
Acne Is a Disease
Acne is a disease called seborrhea or seborrheic dermatitis. It
occurs when the sebaceous glands, under your skin, become
contaminated with oily toxic matter, which contains,
* dirt
* dead skin
* excess sebum oil
* acid waste
* bacteria
* toxic matter
Under normal conditions the sebaceous glands release oil that
comes up through your pores onto the skin surface. This release
keeps your skin moist and lubricated for protection from the
environment.
If your pores on your face are not open or plugged, this creates
toxic oil that cannot move out onto your skin. This results in a
growth or pimple that start to increase in size as more toxic oil
tries to reach the surface of your skin.
If the pore walls burst under the skin, white blood cells move
in to digest the collagen around the pores. When this happens, you
will have scars on your face.
To avoid having scars, you need to start an acne-clearing
program before you get acne or just as soon as you see acne coming
so that your pimples and back heads don't get to the point where
they get severely infected and burst.
Clearing Your Acne
Acne is a complex condition that involves many parts of the body
even though it shows up as only eruptions on the face and else
where on your skin. It is a signal that you have problems elsewhere
deep within your body. Acne can be caused by a toxic colon, poor
digestion of food, weak liver and other conditions that cause the
blood to carry too much toxicity.
To clear acne it is not always possible to just do one thing and
expect acne to go away. But it may be possible to just use a
special cream and have your acne diminish or clear.
Acne may go away by just doing one thing but don't expect it to.
A facial cream, diet, herbal treatment, and colon cleanse alone may
not be able to clear acne. A combination may or may not work.
In future articles, I will be covering how to get rid of
acne.
