Herbal acne treatments: introduction to herbs
Herbs, not only for the treatment of acne have been
used for medicinal purposes, to promote energy, love,
birth and spirituality from the time of recorded
history. Herbal medicines are known for their gentle and
gradual ways of healing, safety use and potent
qualities.
Herbs are in fact concentrated foods, filled with
potent nutrients not always available from the foods
that we eat. Herbs can work with your body to balance or
temporary rebalance your body for the purpose of helping
your system to gradually heal itself. Herbs can also be
used to treat not only the symptoms of a disease like
acne, but also the root cause of a problem.
I have personally tested dozens of herbal acne
treatments, with different levels of potency, with
different individuals who had different types of acne
and different levels of severity and my conclusions are
unanimous: herbal acne treatments, if chosen and taken
correctly, actually work and help your body to gradually
heal itself from acne. However, herbal acne treatments
work short-term and only if combined with other
protocols aimed at tackling all acne contributing
factors. Here's why:
Herbal acne treatments: how do they work to cure
acne?
Not all herbs are alike or function the same. Herbs
work differently and function at a different pace and
level within each individual. Herbs are filled with
concentrated nutrients and work through your glands to
nourish your body and help it produce hormones, tone,
nourish, cleanse, regulate and heal itself. And because
herbs work with your body, against it like conventional
cane treatments (drugs and steroids for example), and
because herbs are aimed to tackle the cause of a
disease, not the symptoms, herbs work gradually and
slowly.
Herbs work in combination, rather than separately
since each herb can tackle other disease-contributing
factor and if herbs are taken with the correct foods
(like fresh fruit and vegetables and whole grains) they
function more effectively.
Like with any natural treatment that addresses the
root cause of a condition like acne, herbal acne
treatments will lead to a temporary healing crisis, when
things become worse before they get better. By
intensively stimulating your body to detoxify, for
example, herbs will cause you liver to release an
abundance of congested toxins (disease poisons are
released into the bloodstream), a temporary condition
which can get your body into a more aggravated state of
imbalance. This is effective because your body has the
natural tendency to restore things into balance and this
condition can actually encourage your body even further
to return to homeostasis and thus work harder to heal
itself.
Herbal treatments for acne if taken in a form of
blend or tincture can be very effective, to purify the
blood from congested toxins, to help balance hormonal
activity, to boost liver function 9helping your liver to
expel excess hormones out of your body, and release
toxins), to fight Candida and other fungal forms that
stress your elimination organs and aggravate your
acne.
The only problem is that herbal acne treatments work
temporarily.
Why herbal acne treatments work temporarily
Although herbs effectively pave the way for the body
to do its own work, by breaking up toxins, cleansing and
nourishing, and fighting harmful organisms, medicinal
herbs no matter how potent they may be will NEVER cure
your acne.
Here are two reasons why:
1.As you already know, to permanently cure acne, in
addition to the cleansing protocols, lifestyle
optimization and hormonal balancing, you must also
rebuild your main organs of elimination. Herbs will
effectively SUPPORT these processes but they are by no
means a substitute.
For example: if you suffer, like most acne sufferers,
from significant toxic blockage in your system,
cleansing herbs no matter how powerful, will NEVER be
able to replace an effective thorough liver and blood
cleansing protocols. In the same way a mechanical
problem in your car could never be properly fixed using
a fuel or an oil change.
2.Although some herbs like Echinacea (known to reduce
inflammation and promote healing) or aloe vera (has
excellent antibacterial and astringent properties) can
be taken long term, most herbs by the nature of which
they work in your body should NOT be taken through long
periods of time but periodically. Why? because most
herbs like dandelion for example, work in cycles: they
boost the function of a certain organ temporarily (make
it perform in high gear, a good but dangerous function
if done through long periods of time) and then they stop
working. That’s their nature.
Another reason why herbs work short term is because
of the intense healing crisis herbs create in your
system. Your body will work harder to cleanse and
regulate itself and thus eventually and in a way
neutralize the potency of the herbs.
Herbal acne treatments only work in combination with
other protocols to cure acne
There are dozens of herbs specifically designed to
help and reduce acne symptoms. There are herbs, which
have been proven to be highly effective “cleansing”
agents. Some herbs dramatically boost various organ
systems, help balance your hormonal activity, kill
fungus creatures and parasites and help stimulate and
strengthen your liver and purify your blood. All of
which will have dramatic impact on your acne
condition.
However, by excessively stimulating your liver to
cleanse and expel toxins and used hormones out of your
body, these herbs aimed at treating your acne will
eventually exhaust your liver and the temporary positive
effect over your acne will gradually demise.
A better alternative to this, is to first rebuild and
strengthen your liver so it could release toxins and
expel used hormones constantly even after the herbs have
provided their temporary boost¯.
Secondly, since hormonal imbalance and congested
blood toxins results from several internal and external
factors, obviously hormonal balancing and toxic
cleansing being complex and delicate processes require
the implementation of several OTHER protocols, beside
building a stronger liver, to be successfully
completed.
Conclusion: an effective acne
treatment must use herbs in COMBINATION with other
cleansing and hormonal balancing protocols while making
sure they are taken in cycles (such as two to three
weeks on and two weeks off).
