As someone who used to suffer from cystic acne I am very much aware how confidence bruising bad skin can be and how much it can affect your life. Thankfully, having spent many years researching and trying to understand the root cause of acne, I have been acne free for the past 6 years. Im writing this article to give you an overview of what worked for me in the hope that youll have a better chance of clearing any skin conditions that you have too.

Unfortunately I have lost quite a lot of confidence in the vast majority of dermatologists out there. For a number of years I was prescribed treatments that simply didnt do anything to resolve my acne. Thanks to my research, I now understand why these treatments were useless and how they didnt attack the core of the problem but were rather just an attempt to alleviate the symptoms. Its the same with anything – if you dont deal with the problem directly, it doesnt just disappear.

Heres What I Learnt and What Worked for Me

The actual cause of acne is all down to toxicity levels in your body. Toxins exist in all of us but the liver, kidneys and bowels are always working to filter these toxins out of our body because they are not good for us.

When everything is working how it is supposed to the organs in the body can filter out all of the toxins leaving the body in a healthy state. However, when the toxicity levels get too high or organ function within the body is hampered for whatever reason then the body needs to find an alternative way of getting rid of the toxins. It must get rid of the toxic waste because otherwise they are harmful.

To remove the toxins your body then tries to excrete it through the skin wrapped in sebum (oil). It is this oil that clogs the pores in your skin and allows the growth of acne causing bacteria.

This is why treatments such as Benzoyl Peroxide and other topical treatments are not fighting acne from the root. They attack the problem too late in the cycle. It seemed to make much more sense to me to get the toxicity levels down to more manageable levels so that toxins dont need to be excreted through the skin.

So I started to study what caused toxins and how we can reduce our intake. I also began to look at how to increase organ function so that our liver, kidneys and bowels could get better at removing the toxins.

I found that toxins were caused by a number of things, but only a few were likely to be problematic. Firstly, the diet – no matter what anyone says about the relationship between diet and acne, they are related. Secondly, conditions such as Candida and other kinds of yeast infection – these commonly cause skin problems in unsuspecting sufferers. Lastly, hormone levels – these are commonly unbalanced which can be toxic to your body.

I started to understand what foods I should be avoiding, what superfoods that help clear toxic residue, how to check if I had Candida and what I needed to do to balance my hormones. Within just a few weeks I noticed an incredible improvement in my skin. It wasnt clear by any stretch of the imagination, but the improvement was very noticeable.

My next step was to try and increase the toxin filtering capacity of my kidneys, liver and bowels. This primarily involved doing some kind of cleanse to remove stagnant bile and unwanted waste that could be hampering their functioning. What an incredible effect this had. Even after just a couple of days of doing a liver cleanse my skin showed incredible improvement and my general well-being had increased many times over.

Within 6 weeks of starting the program all my cysts were gone and my acne had reduced from severe to mild. I was over the moon with the results. Another 4 weeks later and my acne was completely cured – hardly a spot on my entire body. I then had to consider how to remove the few scars that I had, but thats another story.

In Summary

The dermatologists had prescribed me all sorts of treatments: Benzoyl Peroxide, Erythromycin, Oxytetracycline right the way through to Roaccutane but nothing cured my condition. Even the Roaccutane had negligible effects on my skin. I managed to clear my skin by:-

- Learning what foods to eat and what to avoid
- Checking for signs of yeast infection and other bowel problems
- Understanding how to balance my hormones
- Cleansing the organs that filter out toxic residue

The four steps sound easy in theory, but in practice takes a bit of work. I assure you that it is definitely worth the trouble, and sitting here having had clear skin for the past 6 years I can truly say that it has changed my life.

pIm hoping that my advice here will serve as some kind of lightbulb moment that spurs you into taking action. I used the step-by-step guide called a target=_new href=http://www.i-reviewsonline.com/content/face-acne-body-acne rel=nofollowacne no more/a to look at each of the four components to the natural acne cure that I discussed above and, as I mentioned, within 10 weeks I had clear skin. I spent a further 8 weeks removing my scars (cystic acne generally leaves quite noticeable scars – it certainly did for me) using this a target=_new href=http://www.i-reviewsonline.com/content/scar-removal rel=nofollownatural scar removal/a program to fairly good effect. I still had some scars remaining but they had improved by about 60%./pbr
