Think about tribal peoples. Those who live in the forests like indeginous American Indian tribes. OK they may have scars from cuts or whatever but u never see them with acne. Why is that? They don't eat all the processed fooRAB we eat and they are not exposed to all the toxins we are. They also are rarely over worked and stressed. If they ate Pizza and cookie dough for 4 days straight I think they still would get a serious spot. We should learn from them....
 
what are the causes of acne? make a list of them. i'm going to try and eliminate every problem.
 
stress, sugar (sucrose), trans fats (margarine, most vegetable oils ).
find a way to deal with stress. Instead of sugar, use maple syrup or raw honey. For oils, use only coconut oil, sesame oil or extra virgin olive oil.
 
I read margarine can contain all sorts of stuff u should avoid if u got acne. Also avoid anything with hydrogenated oils, a real butter spread may actually be better. However, I would say use only a little watever u use but mind hydrogenated oils.
 
Thanks. I wonder if Bertolli is ok (that's what i use). It doesn't say butter or margarine, it just says olive oil spread.

I think that's true about acne not been genetic. I've only had mild to moderated acne, but my parents never got any spots. Probably cos they didn't eat any rubbish like we do. And they say food doesn't cause it. :rolleyes:
 
nicely said fanman. Also i would avoid overwashing your face. If you get too dry/irritated it will just cause more problems. And when washing your face be AS GENTLE AS POSSIBLE! I used to scrub my face vigorously, thinking i was rubbing in the medication better or something? haha.. but i started washing *** gentle as i could, and 2 weeks later there was a HUGE difference. Hope this helps.
 
I've read acne isn't directly linked to genes. It can manifest due to your life style and environment.If you live in the developed world like Europe and the U.S then your more likely to get acne due to our diet. Also were more exposed to various toxins. Our livers and kidneys are under more pressure to deal with it all.
