Dramatic Improvement With Acne-Ltd

Acne-Ltd III is the first product I’ve used that made a dramatic improvement in the condition of my skin. In the first week I observed a rapid clearing of the pimples and within three weeks it has visibly reduced the amount of redness. Everyone remarks on the dramatic change in my skin. ~~Diane

Acne and The Acidic Lifestyle

Acne results from an overly acidic body and skin. The pH scale (potential of hydrogen) as you remember from your high school general science or chemistry class, ranges from 0 to 14 with 7 being neutral. As you rethink your past acne history, you will see that ‘all’ the acne triggers come from ‘acidic items’ regardless of whether they are foods, drinks, stress, out of breath due to not enough oxygen (alkaline) and not able to exhaust enough carbon dioxide (acidic).

We all know that if we hold our breath for 30 seconds or 60 seconds, we will all notice that our face turns pink or red. We all know, but hardly think that the cause is a build up of carbon dioxide which is an ‘acidic’ gas and we have a shortage of oxygen.

Very similarly, when we exercise for a short period, we have a build up of ‘lactic acid’ which is a body waste which is obviously acidic. Likewise, those with acne need to be very concerned about the build up of acids in our blood stream due to the foods and beverages that we consume. We all know of our triggers such as alcohol, coffee, pizza, candy/cookies, various medications, etc. which all have a pH below 7.0 or is termed acidic.

Our objective therefore should be to balance, buffer or neutralize the acids with alkaline. Water is alkaline with a pH of about 7.3, and likewise more alkaline foods such as more “fresh vegetables and fruits are needed which are alkaline (higher pH than 7.0). Acidic foods and drinks are the problem with a pH of below 7.0 such as coffee at 2.2 and beer averaging 2.0 to 2.5, wines at 3.0, whiskeys/gin/vodka at 4.0 (2 ounces mixed with six ounces of water at 7.3 averages about 6.5 pH or so which is a good drink. The opposite is true when mixed with coke as Soft Drinks have a pH of about 2-2.5 pH. So try hard to minimize the above drinks and delete them entirely if possible while increasing your alkaline foods.

To improve your total body and skin condition, eat and drink 90% of the alkaline foods with 10% meats while avoiding breads, pastas, sugars, desserts, etc. This acidic/alkaline scale is logarithmic; meaning that each number is ten times stronger than the preceding number. For example, a pH of 2 is ten times more acidic than a pH of 3 and one hundred times more acidic than a pH of 4. So you will now be able to more easily understand why an acne sufferer needs to minimize the acidic foods and drinks as it takes so many more alkaline foods and drinks to compensate.

The body has several different ways to ensure that the pH balance stays in the normal range of 7.35 to 7.45. These are referred to as buffer systems. Through normal day to day activity in the body, acids are formed as waste products that need to be neutralized, alkalized, or buffered and eliminated. Some of the acids are released with CO2 from exhaling; others are excreted via the kidneys. With acidic foods and drinks, there is always more carbon dioxide (acidic) while alkaline foods produce much more oxygen (think of your high school classes of the tree, grass, and plants giving off oxygen). These systems work together in the healthy human body to keep the pH level within normal ranges. Sometimes with extreme intake of acidic foods and drinks, the normal system can not compensate and the body becomes even more stressed resulting in more stress hormones which are also acidic in nature causing more of a blush/flush.

Likewise, simple illnesses such as influenza, minor surgery, or emotional and mental stress continue to lower the pH of the body and with more resulting skin blushing and flushing. Almost all medications are acidic except anti-acid medications such as Zantac, Milk of Magnesium, etc.
You can make sure that your water and many foods are alkaline by purchasing pH paper at most drug stores at a cost of $12 to measure the pH of the water, drink or foods. Your urine should be in the 6.6, 6.8, and up to a 7.0 pH range most often as the culmination of the body process. As you can imagine if you drink and eat many acidic foods, the result will be deterioration of the skin, body organs & bones. The adrenal cortex secretes cortisol, a natural body hormone of about 10 mg of cortisol daily, with peak cortisol levels occurring early in the morning and therefore the acne flushing and acne pimples papules will look best in early mornings after this natural anti-inflammatory drug. The hormone that will report back to the original brain centers together with other body organs to tell it to stop the whole cycle. But since cortisol is a potent hormone, the prolonged secretion of it will lead to health problems such as the break down of cardiovascular system, digestive system, musculoskeletal system with resulting osteoporosis and arthritis - rheumatism, and the immune system.

Also, when any organism, system or body does not have a chance for recovery, it will lead to both catecholamine and cortisol depletion. The entire concept is "not to keep" the body in a 'fight or flight' system with stress, stimulation, or the use of 'acidic' food/drinks which you will learn more about on the page entitled "Flushing: Types, Patterns & Systems".

Drinking Water Can Improve Acne

When it comes to an effective acne treatment, knowledge is power. When choosing a treatment for your acne condition, it is important to know about acne treatment lifestyle changes. A wide range of (lifestyle) treatments can give you control over your acne. The goal of an effective acne treatment is to reduce pimples, adult acne, acne rosacea, cystic acne, acne vulgaris, and other acne types.
It is important in the treatment of acne to treat your whole self in as many ways as possible. For the vast majority of people with acne, effective treatment includes lifestyle changes that can help minimize symptoms, reduce inflammation, and maintain normal bodily functions. If you change your lifestyle and eating habits, and therefore reduce your stress level, you'll be even happier with Acne-Ltd III.
When the body becomes stressed from many causes, the adrenal cortex converts adrenal androgens to testosterone in BOTH men and women, resulting in overactive sebaceous glands. The ovaries produce 25% of the testosterone while 75% is converted from adrenal androgens in the normal female. Women only have 10% of the testosterone that men have. Men have thicker skin and muscles than women and can handle much more testosterone obviously. When the male or female body is stressed, the adrenal androgen conversion can almost double the testosterone in both men and women. This causes the T zone of the face to be oily, while other areas are still dry from dehydration. Adult acne and rosacea are sometimes a by-product of stress and/or dehydration. Water and estrogen calm the "body's stress alarm system". The most important element of acne treatment is to keep the skin (body) hydrated.
Water is a most important acne treatment in that it is alkaline (pH 7.3) and can be considered a natural treatment or an almost free acne treatment. Click to the left to read about other ways to treat acne by changing lifestyles.

Acne-Ltd Improved My Skin Condition

When I first ordered the Acne-Ltd treatments my acne was out of control. I had moderate to severe facial redness, pimples and pustules ranging daily from mild to severe.
When I began the treatment, I was very strict with my water intake, food limitations and supplements. When my skin was bad the disks worked wonders. They lasted me for at least two years.
My skin seems to be in some sort of remission at this time thanks to the Acne-Ltd disks. My acne is no longer a problem. I no longer eat right, I don't drink water and I don't take any supplements or take any oral antibiotics, but thanks to the disks, my skin is happy.

Acne-Ltd: What it is and What it Does

The ingredients of Acne-Ltd III are zinc oxide, sodium chloride, manganesium sterate, polyethylene glycol, iron oxide and sulfur (sulfur is used externally only and not to be confused with sulfa which is taken internally only).
Acne-Ltd III battles your acne with a comedolytic (blackhead-eliminating) action. It dehydrates and drains the pores, thus preventing new pimples from forming. Unlike most acne medications, which leave the skin dry and irritated, Acne-Ltd III contains an anti-bacterial agent that moisturizes the skin while fighting bacteria.
