Acne
Acne is a very common condition that occurs most often in adolescence. Some report that more than 89% of teenagers are affected, and the condition
frequently continues into adulthood. Aside from scarring, its main effects are
psychological, such as reduced self-esteem and, according to at least one study, depression or suicide. Early treatment is really important to lessen the overall impact to individuals.
There is a tight connection between diet and acne formation; dietary factors
can trigger and aggravate existing acne. Avoiding the wrong foods such as milk,
sugar and hydrogenated oils, and eating cleansing and hormonal balancing foods
such as green leafy vegetables and essential fatty acids, can help. It appears
that food intolerance can also play a part.
