If we are talking about acne pimples, there are causes galore.
In fact, it is a case of one leading to another. But let
us see, from where we may start the discussion on what causes
pimples.
Causes of Pimples
Pimples occur when the hair follicles in our body
get clogged with excessive secretion of an oily
substance produced by the sebaceous glands that get
trapped within and breed bacteria. The resultant mass
then appears as unsightly bumps on the skin, usually on
the face, neck, arms or chest in the shape of pimples. But the
topic of what
causes pimples covers a lot more.
It includes several sharp questions as to why do
the sebaceous glands abruptly start producing excessive
oil that is not needed for the body? They apparently do
so because of a hormonal imbalance within the body. But
what causes the hormonal imbalance in a body that looks
quite hale and hearty? Now, to answer this question we
shall have to delve much deeper than what is usually
anticipated.
Hormonal Factors Causing
Acne
Hormonal imbalance is caused due to accumulation
of too much toxic matter in the body that includes the
blood and the lymphatic glands. The storage or buildup
of toxins in the body happens phase-wise. When the
kidneys and the bowel systems (including the colon) are
overburdened with toxins, they pass on some of their
toxic load to the liver which then takes over part of
the work of the kidneys and soon becomes overloaded with
toxin. The toxic load finally reaches the lungs and the
skin for elimination. But since the lungs are already
overburdened with cleaning the blood, the excess load of
elimination of the toxins fall on the skin where the
clogged pores can hardly permit the process of
elimination. And the vicious cycle goes on and on till
the acne victim's face is filled with angry looking
pimples, pustules, lesions, papules, blackheads, whiteheads and what
not.
There is yet another theory links pimples at
puberty with genes. However, genetic factors may not
seem involved only in pimples and would have affected
other regions as well. An acne sufferer's biggest
problems are the pimples or the lesions and nothing
else. It neither causes any fever nor is linked to any
sexual debility and malfunctions of sexual organs and
has got nothing to do with his or her sex urge or
libido, save and except its virulence at puberty when
sexual activity predominate others.
However, the question of what causes
pimples would have died a natural death had people
practiced the holistic way that prevented consumption of
fats food, junk food and food rich in spices and animal
products. Acne would have been permanently banished had
the body been cleansed of its toxic matters through its
organs of elimination like the kidneys and the colon or
the liver and the skin. These vital organs very
unfortunately are rendered inoperative through years of
abuse with improper food and lifestyle, resulting in
serious imbalance of the body's hormonal system, leading
to acne pimples. Yes, holistic remedies work best for
the permanent eradication of pimples.
