To understand the true acne cause and the cure, it is first very important to eliminate a few of the Myths that in truth are not the real problem at all.

1. Myth: People who have acne don’t clean themselves well enough. OF COURSE you know this is not true. Many of the worst case acne cause sufferers are totally obsessive compulsives when it comes to cleanliness. Or if this were true then any worker such as an Auto Mechanic with oil and grease from cars on his face or a firemen with soot and ash on his would have a huge problem with acne and this is just not the case.

2. A mostly Myth is: A bad diet is the culprit. Not completely true at all. Yes a bad diet can have an impact on the liver and slightly contribute to acne out breaks. But it is not the primary cause or everyone who eats a bad diet would have acne. We know this can’t be true because most people eat badly and most people don’t have acne cause problems.

3. Another mostly Myth: Stress- yes it can affect the liver slightly but again it by itself won’t be your acne cause.

4. Myth: Bacteria- no, once again not the actual acne cause. Otherwise people with acne would be considered contagious and we all know that’s not true.

5. Finally acne is also not likely caused by 99% of the myths traveling around on the internet such as the completely untrue vitamin B-5 deficiency hype.

So what is the real acne cause you ask?

Well, it’s simpler than you may think, it’s only 3 things working together and it’s really pretty easy to understand.

The real cause of acne and the cure is simply a hormonal imbalance an over abundance of toxins and your Immune systems response to it. When Androgenic Hormones (the ones that build your body up) are heavily produced or not properly eliminated/recycled way to much Sebum (skin oil) is produced. If this happens especially in the presence of a large amount of toxins the body’s Immune system kicks into gear to protect itself.

Yes, your real acne cause frustration is just your own body’s Immune system doing exactly what it is supposed to. Your body see’s huge Sebum secretions and high levels of toxins in the blood as potentially harmful breading grounds for bacteria and so it forms cells that stick together like glue to close down your skin duct (passage way/tunnel the oils travel out of). And yep you got it, BINGO you have a new pimple!

Hold on you say, you know people with oily skin who don’t have an acne problem, what’s up with that? Easy, the answer lies in their liver. Here is where some of the non acne causes we talked about can have their mild but cumulative effects. If your liver is having a challenge keeping up with the overall demand put on it, then it will not cycle out hormones or toxins at even close to 100% efficiency. You see, if you add more work to your already overworked liver by adding in stress, environmental toxins and bad foods it slows down in its ability to keep your blood clean and recycled properly.

Therein lies the myths that bad food and stress cause acne. They do indirectly contribute to acne outbreaks but are only a small piece of the puzzle. Ok, so why do teenagers, some adults and women going through their monthly cycles have such bad challenges with acne.

The answers to these questions are:

1. Teenagers are going through one of the largest hormonal output (growth) periods of their entire lives. Their bodies are actually changing by the day. Some body chemistry’s slightly over produce androgenic hormones. Then it just comes down to who’s livers are able to function quickly to clear out all of the toxins and recycle the hormones fast enough to have very few acne out breaks. Those who’s livers are a little on the sluggish side have a few out breaks and the people with livers that are quite sluggish have chronic acne.

2. Adults with continuous acne generally have livers that have become compromised in their ability to down grade (deactivate/recycle) excess or old wasted hormones and or properly clean out the blood of toxins.

3. The answer to women on their monthly cycles should at this point be rather obvious. They of course as you already know are producing far to many of the wrong hormones. The occasional (for many women) acne “flair up” is also because the hormonal and or toxin levels have risen slightly above the livers ability to remove or recycle them.

To state acne cause simply. Your liver becomes overwhelmed and cannot cleanse and or recycle toxins or hormones quickly enough. Your immune system kicks in to high gear and you get acne.

There is a permanent solution to cure your acne once and for all.
