Digestive Problems Cause Acne
Author: Charley Hwang
We often blame that acne is caused by stress and the food that we eat. Well, it's true in a way but do take note that improper digestion could also cause acne. This is often caused by too little hydrochloric acid in the stomach. In such conditions, the body is unable to absorb important nutrients which results in a weak immune system that cannot fight the bacteria effectively. Thus acne gets a chance to spread unhindered even if you are eating proper food and taking enough nutrients in your diet.
Our stomach digests by using acid to break down the food into smaller particles so it can be easily absorbed by our intestines. The acid produced is hydrochloric acid (HCL) and it will break down protein, kill pathogens and microns, control absorption of B12, control absorption of nutrients, Vitamin C, created indigestion and prevents constipation. If our HCL level is low, this will contribute to acne growth. But the level of HCL can be increased by taking digestive enzyme that contains this acid.
The next part of our digestion is the pancreas which releases digesting enzymes and bicarbonate to help complete the digestion system. Bicarbonate reduces the strength of HCL from the stomach and enzymes in this part digest carbohydrates, fats and protein. When our pancreas loses its ability to produce the required enzyme, less food will be digested. Undigested food will flow to the colon and it will stay undigested, rot and produce toxic which flows to the blood. These toxic might harmful but it certainly can cause acne.
Therefore, when we have problems with our digestive system, then we will be more susceptible to getting acne. So the bottomline is, it is very important for us to maintain a healthy diet by reducing the intake of food which is hard to digest such as fried and oily food. When our digestion system is healthy, this will lead to a healthy and radiant skin free of acne.
