Understanding Acne: Causes and Solutions
Introduction
After spending 15 years trying various acne treatments?"both topical and oral?"without much success, I embarked on a quest to uncover the true causes of acne.
Key Insights
1. Hormonal Regulation: Hormones control every function in the human body, guiding organs and cells in their roles.
2. Testosterone and Sebum Production: Among various hormones, testosterone, particularly in the form of DHT (5-testosterone), plays a crucial role in sebum production. Excess sebum can lead to acne, which typically begins at puberty with the onset of testosterone production.
3. Impact of Other Hormones: While stress-induced hormones like glucocorticosteroids can worsen acne, they aren't direct causes.
4. True Causes of Acne: Contrary to common beliefs, acne isn’t directly caused by food, stress, poor hygiene, or bacteria. These factors only contribute when there's already a hormonal imbalance and toxin overload in the body.
5. Importance of Hormonal Balance: Hormonal imbalance is the primary cause of acne, with toxins playing a secondary role. This imbalance often arises from a deficiency in prostaglandins?"biochemical messengers that facilitate communication between cells and hormones.
6. Role of Prostaglandins: These vital compounds ensure hormonal balance by regulating androgen levels, which in turn control sebum production. A deficiency in prostaglandins can disrupt this balance, leading to excess sebum and acne.
7. Insufficient Prostaglandin Production: The body requires gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) to produce prostaglandins. Unfortunately, factors like stress, poor diet, and lifestyle habits can hinder the conversion of linolenic acid (LA) into GLA.
8. Liver Health and Acne: When prostaglandins are lacking and hormones become imbalanced, the liver struggles to manage the hormone overload, resulting in acne. A strong, healthy liver is thus essential for managing acne.
Solutions
To address acne effectively, focus on restoring hormonal balance and strengthening liver function. This cannot be achieved through traditional topical and oral medications alone but requires dietary support from herbs and supplements rich in essential fatty acids.
- Omega-6 Fatty Acids: GLA, a key component of omega-6 fatty acids, should be taken alongside other beneficial fatty acids like EPA and DHA for optimal absorption.
- Evening Primrose Oil: This oil is rich in essential fatty acids and is particularly known for its high content of linolenic acid and GLA, making it an excellent choice for enhancing prostaglandin production.
- Liver-Supporting Herbs: Milk Thistle is renowned for its liver-strengthening properties.
