It is well known that at least once in a lifetime all people have experienced some problems with acne. This is one of the most common skin conditions that affects teenagers as well as adults. While most teenagers’ acne will be solved by itself in time, when it comes to adults, things are not that simple. Some studies reveal that cellular inflammation is the cause of adult acne, as well as other diseases associated with aging. Cellular inflammation is the result of high blood sugar. The key to preventing this kind of inflammation is to eat a diet that has been designed to prevent a rapid rise in blood sugar.

THE IMPORTANCE OF BLOOD SUGAR

    Blood sugar, or more accurately blood glucose level, is the primary fuel for the central nervous system. You should know that glucose is a substance that causes damage to cells and tissues by reacting with proteins, DNA and other vital molecules. If the level of glucose in your blood is high, this means that you have diabetes. This is not a disease that immediately affects your skin, but in time you will see some consequences. Diabetics, with high blood glucose, tend to have bad skin, acne, as well as vascular and other organ damage. But if your blood glucose is low and stays like this for a period of time, you might lose consciousness, fall into coma or even die. Even slightly high blood sugar helps the aging process of your skin in the long run. A rapid rise in blood sugar causes an insulin response in the body, which then causes an inflammatory response.
    The food we eat is converted to sugar as it is digested. Different foods are converted to sugar at varying rates. If we consume foods that are rapidly converted to sugar, that is considered pro-inflammatory. Pro-inflammatory foods cause all kinds of problems in the body resulting from a rapid rise in blood sugar, which in turn increases inflammation on a cellular level. As our insulin rises, this triggers more inflammation throughout the body. Insulin prevents the blood sugar level from rising too high and helps to control the amount of sugar dissolved in the blood. It is also necessary to have insulin in your blood for cells respiration to take place. High levels of insulin also cause the body to store fat, which is not good for people with acne.
     People can keep their skin healthy and clean, slow down their aging and reduce the risk of diabetes by taking measures to improve their eating habits. These are also useful for anyone over thirty as they reduce the risk of developing acne or diabetes in the future.

BLOOD SUGAR - KEEPIN’ IT LOW WITH THE FLOW

    By now, almost everyone knows that eating sweet foods such as cookies, cakes, and candy will cause a rise in blood sugar. Unfortunately, a lot of people are not aware that many foods, not considered sweets, are also rapidly converted to sugar in the body. Once these pro-inflammatory foods are ingested, they act the same as sweet foods, causing a rapid rise in blood sugar - they trigger an increase in insulin, resulting in inflammation on a cellular level, therefore acne will appear. At first look many foods that rise your blood sugar appear to be good choices. Just a few of these are bananas, potatoes, fruit juices, processed cereals, corn, peas, rice, pasta, bread. In addition to avoiding the pro-inflammatory foods, it is essential to learn about the foods that have powerful anti-inflammatory potential. They provide excellent sources of essential fatty acids (the good fats) that have powerful anti-inflammatory activity. These good fats are found in many foods, including fish, salmon in particular. Also, fresh fruits and vegetables have the same properties.
     Don’t think that if you have found out that there are anti-inflammatory foods that help you keep your skin free of acne and your body in good condition, you can go on and exaggerate with the quantities ingested. It is both the type of foods eaten and the amounts eaten that determine how rapidly blood sugar will rise. If we eat too much at once, even if the food is anti-inflammatory, it will cause a rise in blood sugar. As always, common sense should prevail: moderation in all things.

SWITCHING LANES

    Another good way of reducing your blood sugar is to drink at least eight to ten glasses of water every day. Taken in the proper quantities, water has an anti-inflammatory effect on our body and skin, and when we combine plenty of water with the anti-inflammatory diet there is a very rapid reduction of inflammation in the body with visible results on the skin. To fight inflammation and get rid of acne, water is just as important as healthy diet. And to be on the safe side if you combine with all this some regular exercise, it is even better. You’ll have fit body, strong heart and perfect skin.
     The key to the anti-inflammatory diet is learning how to carefully regulate blood sugar and insulin levels so that inflammation on a cellular level can be controlled. This will optimize health and keep skin clear of acne, and at the same time will prevent diseases, accelerated aging, bad skin, and fatigue.

INTRODUCTING ORATIN

    Nowadays there are a lot of acne treatment drugs, but one of them stands out from the crowd - Oratin. Oratin is the best oral treatment for acne; it keeps the skin oil production within normal levels and prevents bacteria overgrowth in your body. When the production of oil is between normal levels, your skin is smooth and healthy.
     As we ingest food, the enzymes from the gastrointestinal track break it down to simple molecule, such as sugars. In the body, sugars are converted into glucose that is absorbed in the blood, which causes the blood sugar level to rise. An increased level of sugar in your blood allows bacteria to overgrow. This is where Oratin comes in. It pushes bacteria through the stomach, large intestines and lower intestines by metabolizing and processing the sugar from your body, this ending with low level of sugar blood. Also, by balancing your blood sugar, Oratin decreases the sebaceous glands, this leading to normal oil production. And when oil production is between normal levels, your skin is free of oil, clean and healthy.

FIGHT IT, DON’T MIND IT!

     Acne affects the most visible parts of your body. Many people that have acne tend to isolate themselves from society because they are embarrassed with their looks, have low self-esteem, and are sometimes depressed and frustrated. Don’t let this happen to you! Fight your acne, and don’t let it control your life!
