Clear Your Skin with Healing Diets
Introduction
Healing diets can indirectly aid in managing acne. By understanding how these diets work, especially in relation to acne, you can make informed choices about which foods to avoid and discover some surprising factors that may worsen your condition.
The Role of Diet in Healing
Annemarie Colbin, in her book Food and Healing, emphasizes that diets alone are not cures. Instead, they support the body’s natural healing processes. She suggests that acne may result from the body’s inability to eliminate toxins via the kidneys and lungs, exacerbated by the typical Standard American Diet.
How Diet Affects Acne
Colbin observes that changing your diet can clear even significant acne over ten days to three months. She identifies two main dietary causes:
1. Fat, Protein, and Sugar Excess: Eliminate foods like milk, cheese, ice cream, fatty meats, nuts, and peanut butter.
2. Mineral-Water Excess: Colbin warns against isolated substances like iodized salt or supplements, including kelp or multivitamins, which she believes can disrupt the body’s natural balance.
The Importance of Balance
Colbin’s approach is rooted in balance?"a key principle in many natural health systems, including traditional Chinese medicine. Excess minerals or vitamins can create an increased need for macronutrients like protein, fat, and carbohydrates. For instance, taking supplements out of their natural food context may spur cravings as the body seeks equilibrium.
While supplements can be beneficial, especially when foods lack essential nutrients, it's crucial to use them wisely. Overuse can lead to imbalance, proving that more isn't always better.
Conclusion
For those managing acne, a balanced approach to diet and supplements is essential. By understanding the body’s need for balance and avoiding dietary excesses, you can support your skin’s health naturally.
