Create Your Own Effective Acne Treatment
by Naweko San-Joyz

Since 1982 Accutane has been a reliable, if not
controversial, drug for treating severe acne. Now with FDA
representative David J. Graham’s statement that Accutane should be
taken off the market, and pharmaceutical manufacturer La Roche’s
defense of Accutane’s safety in a Florida courtroom, access to Accutane
faces mounting restrictions.

Author of Acne Messages: Crack the code of your zits and say
goodbye to acne, Naweko San-Joyz, understands the concerns facing acne
sufferer’s who desire Accutane-like results. San-Joyz conducted
research to inexpensively mimic the effects of Accutane. “ Accutane
provokes five acne-fighting actions that anyone can replicate using
nutrition and self-care”, explains San-Joyz.

Reduce excess oil secretion:

Accutane is a derivative of vitamin A and reduces the secretion of oil by the oil glands.

Foods that supply the body with Vitamin A and beta-carotene
(which is converted to vitamin A by the body) include: Liver, oily
fish, whole eggs, carrots, sweet potatoes, and broccoli.

Encourage extreme shedding of the skin:

Using a peel is the easiest method to promote shedding of the
skin. Exfoliation releases the build-up of dead skin cells, oils and
bacteria trapped in the pores, which could lead to the formation of
blemishes.

Extreme peels

Peels come in varying degrees, from mild to harsh. The
trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel is an extreme peel that can cost from
$100 to $1000 depending on the degree of the treatment. It is only
performed in a doctor’s office. The TCA is not a save all however. The
peel can make the skin sensitive to the sun cause hyper-pigmentation.

Home use peels:

Several over-the-counter peels contain papaya enzymes or
glycolic acid. These peels lightly exfoliate the skin and are safe for
weekly use.

Reduce the spread of bacterial infection:

Using an astringent such as witch hazel or apple cider vinegar
to disinfect the skin significantly reduces the presence of bacteria on
the face. This reduction limits skin inflammation and the likelihood of
a pimple developing.

Enhance Fat Metabolism:

Free fatty acids can irritate the skin and provoke acne
eruptions. Reducing intake of foods containing hydrolyzed fats will
improve fat metabolism. However, do consume essential fatty acids such
as Omega-3 and Omega-6, which are found in foods such as salmon and
olive oil. These essential fats aid the gastrointestinal tract
eliminate pro-inflammatory substances, which reduces the possibility of
experiencing acne lesions.

Reduce inflammation:

A strong immune system serves as a buffer against inflammation.
Stress reducing activities such as exercising, eating a well-balanced
diet and sleeping well boosts the immune system. A diet supplemented
with B-Complex, zinc and vitamins C and E likewise enhances the
effectiveness of the immune system.

Like Accutane, these five steps will not work overnight.
Accutane works via creating a bodily environment that is not conducive
to acne. By adhering to the nutritional and aesthetic steps above,
anyone can attain clear skin while simultaneously augmenting their
health. For more acne self-care tips visit www.Noixia.com or read Acne Messages at www.Amazon.com (ISBN: 0974912204).
