Hormones and Acne
There is a clear connection between hormones and acne. Most people tend to experience acne when they’re teens going through adolescence. Many women also experience breakouts when they’re menstruating or when they’re pregnant. It is obvious that hormones are affecting our skin somehow and that acne is one of the results of these hormones.
So if that is the case, if there is such a clear connection between hormones and acne, why do we try to treat our skin by slathering chemicals on our faces? Why are there multiple reasons sighted for acne causes such as bacteria or excess sebum(facial oil)? Why don’t any of the acne commercials we see on TV every say a thing about hormones?

Because there’s no money in it for them, simply put. Despite overwhelming evidence that hormones and acne are related, drug companies are more interested in your money. They don’t care about telling you the real cause of acne because they know you’ll stop buying their products as soon as you find a cure.
Think about it like this: have you ever been to the doctor and heard them say something to the effect of, “You’re only treating the symptoms.” Have you ever heard this phrase uttered any time in your life? Sure you have, we all have. When someone falls ill, doctors always need to know what the root cause of the illness is if they ever want to effectively treat it. If you only treat the symptoms of an illness, you’ll never cure it. This is exactly what most people are doing every single day when they put chemicals on their face to get rid of their acne. Excess oil on your face, bacteria, even acne are all symptoms of some deeper problem inside of your body. That’s why these chemicals will never cure you; they’ll never treat the real problem.
So by now you might be wondering what you can do about this connection between hormones and acne. Most women treat their acne problems through the use of birth control which is great for them, but you’re out of luck if you’re a guy or if you’re trying to get pregnant. But don’t fret to much. There’s a very simple and incredibly effective way to treat your acne problems by attacking the root problem directly.
The answer is simply food. The food that the typical western diet consists of contributes directly to the relationship between hormones and acne. Did you know that in any culture that tends to eat more natural foods without all the preservatives and who knows what else we put in our food these days, there isn’t a single recorded case of acne whatsoever? Crazier still is that these people don’t suffer from many of the maladies that we consider normal for us. They have lower rates of osteoporosis and diabetes is nearly unheard of, amongst many other things.
We eat far to many foods that are just plain bad for us. Setting aside sugars, high fructose corn syrup and other such items, even foods we tend to eat every day and not think about twice are bad for us. Things like milk, white bread, white rice, and even many wheat products. These foods upset the balance of hormones in our body and as we know by now, the connection between hormones and acne is pretty clear.
So what can you do? IS there nothing safe to eat? Do you have to become a hermit and eat only carrots and drink only water? Certainly not. I still live a normal life and eat and drink many different things. There is just a key word you must remember: moderation. Replacing the bad foods in our diets is also very simple. Instead of cow’s milk, you can replace it with rice, almond or even goat’s milk. Love chocolate? Try eating dark chocolate instead which has less sugar in it. Big on sandwiches? Eat sprouted bread instead which is far healthier for you.
The connection between hormones and acne is very apparent and to become acne free you have to stop ignoring that connection. Stop consuming the foods that the biggest acne aggravators and you’ll see some pretty amazing results. These have worked so well for me in fact that I no longer even need to moisturize. My skin looks great and I feel better too.
