Acne Cures: Is there a Natural Acne Cure that Works?
Are there natural acne cures that work or is it a new age myth? Is there a permanent cure for acne or are all acne sufferers sentenced to the Sisyphean battle of tackling the ‘on the surface’ symptoms? Is there an honest, natural and safer alternative to the endless use of over the counters and to the nasty side effects inflicted by conventional drugs, creams and topical acne treatments?
Most dermatologists and other western medicine followers have already answered that controversial question by claiming that acne, among other diseases simply cannot be cured.
There are 2 reasons for that:
1. Most dermatologists don’t even know what the real cause of acne is. It’s amazing but true. They are highly familiar with the symptoms of acne and they specialize in tackling the ‘on the surface’ symptoms, but unfortunately they cannot tell you what the internal conditions are that cause your acne to form in the first place. If you don’t believe me just ask your dermatologist.
2. Most doctors work in conjunction with the pharmaceutical and drug companies and the latter is not motivated, so to speak, at discovering a cure for Acne or Aids or Cancer – simply because hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent on finding treatments for the symptoms of diseases. Why? simply because their global aim is to make more profit by creating consumer dependency. By applying medications and creams that deal merely with the symptoms while ignoring the source or the internal cause of the disease, acne will never be cured. The average acne sufferer will become more and more reliant on drugs that temporarily calm the symptoms and that means steady income for the drug and pharmaceutical companies.
There’s a lovely metaphor describing acne among other chronic diseases and the way modern medicine deals with these afflictions: If you manage to kill all the mosquitoes around a stale pond using chemicals, for a little while there will be no mosquitoes.
But since the source of the problem (what causes the mosquitoes to appear) is still there – the stale, disgusting pond where mosquitoes can find food and fertile ground for laying their eggs – mosquitoes will always come back!
The same thing happens with your acne!
Without eliminating the source of your acne condition, you will never get rid of your acne. Without fixing the internal problem that is causing your acne, you may find temporary relief, but your acne will always come back until you do something fundamental to eradicate the cause from within…until you make the pond (your body or internal system) a place where ‘mosquitoes’ cannot exist.
Ultimately, every disease results from a breakdown within your body. All major diseases and chronic conditions are warning signs of something very fundamentally wrong inside. Deepak Chopra refers to this as “The violation of simple laws of nature that make our body function.”
The very surprising truth is that you are lucky for having acne. Let me explain…Acne, like constant headaches, irritable bowel syndrome or dandruffs is only a small message from your body that something is wrong internally and should be addressed and corrected.
Now, there are two choices you can make – you can:
1.Ignore that message – big mistake! The internal imbalance that caused your acne will, in most cases, turn into a chronic condition. Now instead of just having acne you’ll start having other hormonal imbalance or toxic overload related symptoms in addition to acne. Because the internal problem is not fixed, the disease symptoms get more and more intense.
2.Listen to your body and start fixing the internal problem that causes your acne to appear in the first place; you will not only get rid of your acne you will also achieve beautiful, healthy, even toned clear skin complexion, re-balance your body and prevent future hormonal or toxic overload related conditions.
The simple truth is…you are out of balance. We now live a ‘far-from-natural’ lifestyle. There are over 300 synthetic industrial chemicals present in our bodies that did not exist 50 years ago. We are filled with toxins from the food, and medication we ingest and use.
By fixing the internal condition that causes your acne in addition to adopting a healthy lifestyle (healthy diet & mindset, cleanse & detoxify, hormonal balancing etc.) you will put your body back into balance – holistically – your acne will cease to exist and you feel as healthy and attractive as ever!
It doesn’t matter what type of acne you have. Whether you suffer from: acne vulgaris, acne Conglobata, acne Rosacea, Acne Fulminans, Blackheads, Whiteheads, Papules, Pustules, Nodules or Cysts: The principles required to cure your acne are basically the same. The “holistic” ways of treating people have been around for thousands of years, and they absolutely work whether you have teen or adult acne; whether you suffer from acne on your back, shoulders or chest or if you suffer from female related acne such as menopause acne or acne due to monthly cycles.
Whatever your acne condition is, when you finally decide to stop making the same acne treatment mistakes that have been holding you back and begin applying the holistic approach to curing acne, you can literally choose to become clear and stay clear. You will have the power to make it happen.

It has been estimated that POF affects 1% of the population. While conventional medicine uses synthesis medication to stimulate the ovarian response and artificial insemination with only 5% success rate accompanying with a high medical cost, it drives many women to seek help from traditional medicine, including the traditional Chinese medicine.
Traditional Chinese medicine views POF as an excess and deficiency pattern caused by emptiness of the penetrating and conception meridians and treatments are totally depended to her unique diagnosis, there is no one treatment for all.

I. Causes of POF in TCM perspective
A. Excessive yang
Caused by an excessive loss of vital essence and nutrient fluid, leading to dryness of skin, chapped lips, nose bleed, mouth sore, urinary burning, etc. and interfering with the kidney function in hormonal regulation, resulting in ovarian abnormal function in responding to the hormone secretion from pituitary gland.
B. Spleen qi deficiency
1. Liver
Liver has directed influentially in spleen function, without strong liver there is no treatment for spleen blockade and deficiency.
2. Diet and occupation
Since spleen prefer warm and hot foods, prolong period working in col environment and eating cold foods will effect the spleen function in synthesizing carbohydrate synthesizing, disrupting the processes in nutrients absorption, obstructing the blood flow to the abdominal region and effecting the luteal phrase, resulting in infertility
3. Life style and weakened liver
Spleen is view as the organ of digestion ( nutrients distribution ) and elimination ( eliminating the body waste ). Spleen qi deficiency is normal caused by irregular dietary habits and excessive use of mind in studying and working. Weakened liver may also increases the risk of toxins accumulation and liver qi stagnation in the body, effecting the spleen function and obstructing implantation of egg in the uterine lining.
C. Kidney yin deficiency

As oppose to yang deficiency, It is caused by men who love to hot and spicy food leading to heat accumulation in the body causing yin deficiency.
b) External factor
Working in the hot environment causes the depletion of fluids in the body including the kidney leading abundant yang qi production.
c) Low sexual activity
Frequent sexual activity increases the risk of yang deficiency, low sexual activity causes energy overly accumulation in the reproductive organ, leading to yin deficiency.
D. Blood deficiency
Tradition Chinese medicine view blood deficiency is caused by weakened spleen organ, thereby, reducing the spleen function in blood formation, leading to causes not enough blood to distribute to the body such as absence of (no blood for) menstruation. Blood deficiency leads to abnormal function of reproductive system in regulating menstrual cycle, disrupting the production of egg or produces poor quality egg and makes uterine mucus hostile to sperm.
F. Kidney yang deficiency
1 Unhealthy diet
As we known, we live in the society, where everything we drink are mostly cold including milk. It has a danger effect in both female and male body as it depletes of the yang qi which is needed to counter the the cold effects of abundant yin, leading to kidney yang deficiency. If one day, our yang qi production from the kidney jing is no longer working well, it will cause symptoms of infertility
2. External factors
a) Working in the cold environment such as fish, poultry and meat processing plants may deplete the kidney yang as our body require to produce yang qi constantly to counter the external cold.
b) People stay in the cold place for prolong period of time may also have the same effect as people working in cold environment.
b) Frequent sexual activity
According to traditional medical medicine, sexual intercourse helps to improve blood circulation and production of certain hormones which are necessary for our health. It also helps to balance the kidney yin qi but frequent sexual activity depletes the kidney jing which is vital for hormone and sperm production, leading to low sperm count or semen with no sperm as well as kidney diseases.
II. Treatments
1. Diet modification
a). Since most women with POF are diagnosed with excessive yang in the west caused by the typical American diet as resulting of the body evokes the response from the ovaries, it is advised that spicy and hot foods are eliminated from the diet until excessive yang can be neutralized.
b) What to avoid

The imbalance of levels of sugar also cause the over production of cortisol hormone by the adrenal gland that interferes with production of sex hormone, causing infertility.
iii) Vitamins

iv) Weakened immune system

v) Saturated fat and trans fat
Saturated fat and trans fat interferes the liver function in essential fatty acid metabolism, leading to over production of certain hormones in the prostaglandins family, causing menstrual camps and pain, nervous tensions as well as irregular menstrual cycle, thereby increasing the risk of infertility.
vi) Coffee
Intake of large amount of coffee daily to fight off stress may have a negative effect in the reproductive system. As study show that women who consume 300 mg or more of caffeine take longer to conceive than women who do not or take less.
vii) Drug and alcohol
Drugs and alcohol can influence an imbalance of reproductive hormones. As drug increases the tension of the nervous system leading to hormone imbalance, excessive alcohol drinking can cause liver damage, which abnormal function of liver in all kinds of metabolism, causing blood and qi stagnation in the liver and effecting a couple’s reproductive abilities. Alcohol also causes nervous tension, leading to over production of certain hormones, thereby, increasing the risk of infertility.
viii) Carbonate Soda
Carbonate soda contains high amount of sweetener, caffeine and phosphate which can interfere with calcium absorption as well as stimulating the over production of certain hormone including cortisol, leading to fatigue, stress and anxiety.
ix) Most animal and dairy products
Because most animal and diary products are considered acidic which can distort the balance of pH levels in the body, making cervical mucus hostile to sperm invasion as well as preventing the implantation of egg.

As many products are being sold just as a cure of cellulite, then let us know more about cellulite.
Skin Care- how cellulite is a beauty concern?
Cellulite is the dimpled appearance all that forms on the thighs and buttocks of most of the women and as they age. Though almost all women carry their excess fat in thighs and buttocks here cellulite does not depend on weight. You need thereforenot be overweight to get cellulite. Cellulite is more a problem of aging. It is something similar to wrinkles that form on the face at the time when you age. Cellulite forms thus due to less collagen and elastin in your skin. Hormones play a effective major role in cellulite formation because men don’t develop cellulite.
Skin Care- some facts about cellulite
The fat inside the cellulite is that same as the fat in other parts of the body. There is no difference in the fat. So it is not a problem of any difference in fat. It is more a problem of how the fat is that placed inside the body, below the skin in thighs and buttocks.
There is no known cure for cellulite. Though many formulations are sold and claiming that they can cure cellulite, nothing is proved yet. Neither any pill, nor any cream can cure cellulite. Liposuction cannot cure cellulite. You can get a temporary cure of cellulite with the massage such as endermologie (a deep mechanical massage). But the effect may last for a very few days.

While the exact causes of PMS (premenstrual syndrome) are unknown, the reported symptoms have remained virtually unchanged for decades. PMS is experienced by women of child-bearing age and symptoms include emotional, physical and psychological disruptions. Here we will evaluate what is happening in the body during a bout of PMS and how you might use vitamins and supplements to ease the severity of the symptoms.
PMS seems to occur when estrogen levels drop. In a normal menstrual cycle, estrogen levels slowly rise until about two weeks before menstruation. Then, they sharply fall until menstruation begins. During this two weeks, many women experience anxiety, fatigue, headaches, mood swings, fluid retention, insomnia and depression.
There seems to be a link with the drop in estrogen and production of the mood, appetite and sleep regulating hormone, serotonin. While there is no medical proof that low serotonin levels result in PMS, the symptoms are consistent with low levels of serotonin. Additionally, we know that estrogen keeps serotonin from breaking down and the two normally work together in the body to regulate mood and cognition.
Treatment for PMS revolves around treating the symptoms. Your doctor may recommend drugs for depression, therapy, dietary changes and exercise to ease symptoms. In addition, you may find supplementing with certain vitamins helpful. Talk to your doctor about the proper dosages before you vitamins.
Many studies have been done to determine which vitamins and minerals are most helpful in relieving PMS symptoms. There is substantial proof that taking calcium, vitamin D, magnesium, vitamin B6 and vitamin C can ease symptoms, each in a different way.
Calcium supplements can relieve all PMS symptoms except fatigue and insomnia. Almost all women that suffer from PMS are calcium deficient. It can take up to three months of supplementing to correct the imbalance, so be patient and take your supplements regularly.
Calcium works in three ways. The nervous system, muscular system and the hormonal systems all require a certain amount of calcium to function properly. When estrogen levels drop, the demand for calcium is increased. The body takes the calcium that it needs from the bones.
The calcium that is taken from bone is very hard for the body to use and it is believed that a lot of the fatigue associated with PMS is attributed to the body’s concentration on processing the bone calcium. Low calcium levels cause muscle cramps and spasms. Nerve impulse transmission is also affected. Additionally, low estrogen levels make the absorption of calcium more difficult.
Vitamin D can also be taken to increase absorption of calcium. Magnesium is also proven to greatly reduce PMS symptoms by working with estrogen to reduce stress, water retention, and relax muscles. Magnesium combined with vitamin B-6 also can relieve anxiety.
Many women suffer heavy menstrual bleeding, which can lead to anemia through iron loss. Vitamin C has a significant impact on iron absorption and can help with fatigue. Heavy bleeding is generally caused by weak and fragile blood vessels. They leak as inflammation increases and can make menstruation more painful, exhausting and even dangerous. Vitamin C taken daily reduces heavy bleeding by strengthening blood vessels and reducing inflammation. If vitamin C is not well tolerated by your stomach, try a buffered vitamin C powder.
Talk with your doctor about treating your PMS with before you vitamins. It is important to be sure that your symptoms are caused by PMS and not another underlying condition.

The metabolic changes that occur during menopause need to be considered when determining a woman’s daily requirement of vitamins and supplements. Certain vitamins and supplements can help to curb the symptoms of menopause, but also may help to reduce other health risks, like heart attack, stroke, and metabolic syndrome, that increase at the onset of menopause.
The most common symptom of menopause is hot flashes. Over three-fourths of women experience them. During a hot flash, the body’s core temperature rises. The woman’s body seems to be more sensitive to even slight temperature changes during menopause. The temperature change can cause the skin to suddenly become flush and women report sweating profusely. An episode can last several minutes and can occur multiple times a day. Most women overcome hot flashes naturally after one to five years, but some women continue to experience them for the rest of their lives.
Some women successfully manage hot flashes by taking estrogen, but the side effects can bothersome or even dangerous. Side effects, such as an increased risk of stroke, heart attack, and dementia shy many women away from treating menopause symptoms with estrogen, especially since the risk of heart attack and stroke are already increased by the menopausal phase itself.
Cholesterol increases at the onset of menopause, which contributes to many of the risks that are associated with menopause. Certain vitamins and supplements help with controlling cholesterol levels and can greatly reduce your risk of developing these diseases.
Soluble fiber can drastically reduce LDL (bad cholesterol) levels by as much as 20% when consumed through diet or through supplement form. Omega-3 fatty acids, like DHA and EPA, can greatly reduce triglycerides. Vitamin B-5 (pantothenic acid) helps the body use and distribute the estrogen that it is making. Vitamin E has been shown to reduce hot flashes by as much as 50% in many studies. Niacin helps raise HDL (good cholesterol) and lower LDL levels. It is especially effective when combined with vitamin C.
Vitamin C helps many vitamins and supplements to move through glucose, increasing their effectiveness, especially in diabetics. Vitamin C also works with CoQ10 (coenzyme Q10) to produce collagen and elastin needed to repair and strengthen arterial walls, reducing plaque in the heart and the other risks associated with heart disease and menopause. Cholesterol medications can disrupt the production of CoQ10, so ask your doctor about supplementing if you are taking them.
Hot flashes disrupt sleep and interrupt the lives of menopausal women. But, they also deplete the body of vitamin C. During menopause, hormone production switches over from the ovaries to the adrenal glands. Higher levels of vitamin C are necessary for the support and function of the adrenal glands, but most menopausal women do not have enough vitamin C in their diets or supplement regimens to support this need.
If you are menopausal or post-menopausal, talk to your doctor about which vitamins and supplements may help you with your symptoms. When you vitamins, remember that your need for vitamin C can be much higher than the normal daily recommendation.
To curb stomach upset, damage to teeth, excipient intake, sugar consumption, and expenses, consider taking a buffered vitamin C powder supplement instead of a chewable vitamin C. You should talk to your doctor before you . Ask about drug interactions and safe dosages for your situation before you begin your regimen.
