How the Liver Prevents Acne
by Rudy Silva
The liver is responsible for detoxifying the blood
as it comes from the colon, lungs, and lymphatic system. Once detoxified,
this blood moves into your entire body to provide your cells with
oxygen and digested nutrients.
Because you eat, breathe, and create so many toxins,
the liver has a hard time neutralizing these toxins. If you are constipated,
this puts an extreme toxic load on your liver, which eventually leads
to the excretion of these toxins through your skin and face. Excessive
toxins coming out through your skin can lead to acne and other skin
disorders.
All cellular wastes, used up hormones, and excess
hormones are routed to the liver through your lymphatic system. Once
in the liver, the liver starts the detoxifying process. If the liver
is overloaded with toxins, it will start to store these toxins in
its own cells, in the cells of your organs, in your joints, in your
skin, or any other place where the body is weak.
Hormones, such as androgens that are not neutralized
by the liver, can get back into the blood and move into the skin cells
where they pile up and cause an over production of sebum that will
flow into the hair follicle. This over production can cause acne.
Eating good fiber daily can keep your colon clean
and free of constipation. Fiber can also trap excess hormones and
prevent them from being reabsorbed into your blood through your colon
walls.
If you are a typical eater, then most likely you have
been surviving on junk food. The quantity of toxic chemical and non-food
additives that are in the food that you eat accumulates in your colon,
your liver, your blood, and in your face as toxins that needs to be
neutralized and eliminated.
All junk food and processed food is detrimental to
your health and to your face. Once you stop punishing yourself and
forcing your body to process toxic food products, you will have a
chance of clearing your colon, liver, blood and the blemished conditions
of your face.
One other thing, when the liver is congested and weak,
it does not produce enough bile. Bile is needed in your small intestine
to help digest fat and to promote good colon health. In your colon,
bile helps to activate peristaltic action and thus prevents constipation.
