Do you know someone who is gluten intolerant?
Do you break out into a bad case of acne, whenever you eat anything consisting of soy, milk, wheat, corn, or eggs?
Well, there you are; you are suffering from gluten, lactose, soy and corn intolerance. So is it possible that gluten has something to do with an acne flare-up?
Many people searching for a cure for acne spend lots of money and energy looking for the best topical cure or the best diet which is going to protect them from a possible acne outbreak. Still, they do not look at their daily diet because they do not know that it is the gluten - present in the wheat products in their food - and lactose, which is possibly causing those irritating and frequent pimples, blackheads and whiteheads.
Causes Of Acne - Allergy To Food Items
Yes it is true that there are some food items like chocolate and even coffee to which your body may be allergic. So you use common sense and decide not to eat those items. However the acne outbreak still continues to occur at frequent intervals, especially before a special occasion. Could this flare-up be stress-induced?
The answer is a possible yes because you are worried that you are going to break out and so you are not surprised when that happens. After that you worry that you are not going to look your best during that special occasion and you start taking antibiotics. You also start rubbing a lot of expensive pimple-cure topical creams on the affected area hoping that the infection is going to subside soon.
However, you do not stop yourself from eating wheat, soy, milk and corn-based products. All of these products have plenty of gluten in it. All of these products are potentially tiresome troublemakers which are capable of destroying your state of good health. They are also the possible cause of that disfiguring acne flare-up.
How is Acne Caused By Gluten?
Did you know that gluten is one of the products used in the food industry as a binding agent? Consider soy protein, wheat gluten, corn gluten, and casein - which is found in dairy products - to be natural glues. So these products are used to "glue" dry ingredients during the manufacture of food items.
If these natural glues are powerful enough to "bind" items what do you think they are going to do the moment they reach your small and large intestines? They are going to coat the intestinal lining and "stick" there. That means the necessary nutrients which are required by your body to function properly do not get a chance to get absorbed through the intestines.
Thus the body starts to weaken. You may find yourself suffering from problems in the digestive system, fatigue, and other problems related to an essential nutrient deficiency. Human beings are not ruminants nor do they have the required bacteria in their stomachs which can digest grasses properly. Thus your body will find itself producing more stomach "acid" in order to digest these binding substances.
This increased acid production cannot digest that binding and sticky glue, but it may cause heart burn and digestive problems. This also means that you are going to see this unhealthy affect on your skin. This may be the reason why you find yourself suffering from continuous pimple outbreaks.
Remember that gluten is going to affect everyone eating it in some manner or the other. Still, there are some people who are more tolerant to gluten. That is why they do not worry about the fact that gluten is one of the main reasons for a pimple flare-up.
Is your child suffering from acne? Then it is possible that he is allergic to any of these products - wheat gluten, lactose, corn gluten, soy products, and eggs. In the same way your teenager may have increased his intake of processed foods, wheat and corn-based foods and soy-based foods.
That is why he looks so distressed because he is suffering from frequent mild to serious acne outbreaks. One does not know that the solution is so simple and right at hand. Try eating foods which do not consist of acne inducing substances like gluten.
Processed foods, gluten and Acne
Did you know that 60% of the processed foods available in the market today have either one of these ingredients in them - wheat products, corn products, soy products, dairy products and eggs as binding adhesives? This is the main reason why the manufacture of anti-pimple creams and lotions is a multibillion dollar industry. Ignorance is definitely not bliss in this case.
Now that you know that gluten is a possible cause of your acne trouble, start a gluten free diet right now. The ancients were very rarely gluten intolerant. ["celiacs".] They were also very rarely casein intolerants. Why is that so? That is because they did not eat soy and corn-based products very often. They also did not know about processed foods.
Nevertheless, wheat bread was made for every meal, but it was freshly ground and the bran left in. It was not processed like it is done today with all the important natural nutrients polished away. This natural and unprocessed food was then accompanied with plenty of fruit and vegetables. That means the body's gluten intake was counteracted with other nutritional products.
The ancients also believed in plenty of exercise in the fresh air. This helped digest their wheat-based meals quicker. That is why they did not suffer - much - from acne problems. So use the common sense ideas which have been passed down through the ages - stop eating processed foods or any foods which have gluten in them.
Also, remember to look at the product ingredient labels while shopping and buy all those products which are labeled gluten-free. You may also want to ask your doctor about the best gluten free diet if you think that you are suffering from a gluten allergy. Add more organically grown fruit and vegetables to your diet. You are soon going to find yourself more healthy and with a lovely fresh and glowing skin free of acne.
