Health Protocols

Acne

Diet

  1. Decrease refined carbohydrates. Carbohydrates can cause insulin resistance which negatively impact hormones. When hormones are out of balance acne can result.
  2. Learn to avoid gluten in foods. Gluten is a protein found in many grains which can trigger inflammatory reactions in the skin. There are many books about gluten-free living
  3. Cut unhealthy fats such as fried foods, foods high in trans-fatty acids and saturated fats

Lifestyle

  1. Stress can trigger inflammation throughout the body. In certain people, this inflammation can present in the skin. Learn how to handle stress and reap the benefits to the skin!
  2. Don’t over-clean or over-treat the skin. When the body is balanced, mild cleaning is all that is necessary.
  3. Drink an ounce of water for every pound of bodyweight. I know that this sounds like a lot, just give it a try for a few weeks, you will be quite surprised.
  4. Exercise aerobically. Aerobic exercise helps to detox the body and improve insulin sensitivity.

Supplements

  1. Your Prescription for Health Super Omega-3 Fish Oil - 1-3 Capsules Twice Daily NOTE: People who suffer with acne should use omega-3 fatty acids conservatively. Start with 1 capsule a day, after 1-2 weeks increase to 1 capsule twice daily. After two weeks increase to 2 capsules twice daily.
