Re:Acne treatment - 2008/07/13 21:24 my daughter went through all sorts of problems with acne., finally we found a doctor that suggested using as plain a product that can be found. so we bought some lye soap.
it worked until she got pre-period.

acne has a few different problems with it. One its hormonal, 90 percent of the time, two its systemic. Some adult acnes are due to an infection that has yet to be treated, creating white heads, pustules, pimples. Often a general systemic antibiotic like tetracycline can help.

If that fails, saltwater or trips to he beach have been helpful. the actual chemical makeup of the sea water is what helps.

another is High doses of vitamin A and so on.This can backfire however in cases of PLEVA or other forms of acne that mimic common acne.

Keeping the face clean helps to prevent spread of infection. Diabetic. keratic, PLEVA or other severe acne forms are the major cause of problems.

using the mildest washing product, and not touching your face after eating foods are the main thing to help.

Re:Acne treatment - 2008/08/31 14:50 I fail to see how tetracycline falls in to the category of home remedies. It is true there are a number of reasons why you may get acne....hormonal, untreated infections, poor diet. All of these reasons respond well to a regime of plenty of water, a well balanced diet with fresh fruit and vegetables,good quality essential fatty acids and eliminating alcohol and refined starches, as has been stated in numerous posts already. Blood cleansing herbs like burdock and echinacea will lend an added kick to that regime . When there is toxicity of any kind in the body be it through poor diet or infection, for effective results you must always support the liver. It's the liver that does the most work in removing the toxicity from your system. The juice of half a lemon in warm water first thing in the morning is a great tonic for the liver. Using chemical antibiotics for acne will just undermine your immune system and make you more susceptible to any infection that you encounter and in the long term compound the problem. Alanah
