Western medicine is notoriously sophisticated when it comes to drug formulations and specific drugs approached from a perspective based in deductive science. However, it has been a failure when it comes to being open to solutions (medical problems) that are outside the realm of deductive science. That's why for years western medicine failed to draw accurate conclusions about the relationship between diet and acne.
The medical development and treatments for acne sufferers, have made significant progress in the last 15 years alone. However, the problem of acne has remained largely unchecked, until recently.
In recent years, empirical studies do not take into account this possibility. And now just note that there is a link between acne and diet. The basic premise of the research is that eating refined carbohydrates and sugar is the ultimate culprit of many problems "with acne.
The scientific theory holds that when carbohydrates and sugar are mixed in metabolism leading to an increase in insulin and growth factor known as insulin-like IGF-1.
This growth factor then causes, male hormones, start producing in quantities much larger body to which slated to do in a normal state. These growth hormones lead directly to an increase in the amount of sebum produced.

Sebum is a fatty substance which, as can be seen through the pores follows. To the people often described as "oily skin". The overproduction of sebum, clog pores and cause this blockage, ultimately, an accumulation of bacteria in the pores that can not escape because the fat is in the output.
This, of course, the end result is acne.
This very detailed explanation of how and why acne occurs, could be summed up simply: when you consume refined carbohydrates and sugars, these can aggravate the problem of oily skin, clog your pores, and develop acne naturally.
So what is the solution? No wonder the response, reducing sugars and refined carbohydrates (such as sweets and pastries). These foods provide us with very few nutrients they need, while we provide many problems such as clogged pores.
In fact, recent studies show that these foods are so bad for you that your body really fight as it does with a disease through the production of white blood cells.
Not only is making a waste of white blood cells, but also makes your body produce more waste, some of which help to clog your pores.
Besides avoiding these foods for acne, you can also incorporate a number of foods, especially raw vegetables and antioxidants, act as a sponge in the body, and absorb toxins, also known as free radicals, which often are expelled through the skin.
