The herbal acne treatments that you are planning to try will it really work? Learn the actual truth behind herbal acne remedies that I found through my seven long arduous years of research; truth that no dermatologist, herbal expert or naturopath will ever tell you.

Let us first get introduced to herbs

For years herbs have been used for various purposes other than the treatments of acnes as well. Herbs have been used to promote birth, love, energy, spirituality, etc. Herbs are known for their healing qualities and also because they are devoid of any side effects.

Herbs are powerhouses packed with nutrients. Herbs have the ability to replenish your body with the required nutrients that help the system to heal itself gradually. Herbs address not only the symptoms of a problem but the underlying root cause itself.

Over my seven long years of research I have tested various different herbs with various levels of potency and with different individuals suffering from different kinds of acne of varying levels of severity. And the conclusion that I have drawn from my research is: herbal acne treatments really work. However, there’ a short coming; herbal treatments only work short term and they need other protocols to help them.

How do herbal acne treatments work?

All herbs are not alike, neither do they work the same or at the same pace with different individuals. Herbs are full of nutrients that help in the production of hormones, and in nourishing toning, regulating and healing the body. And herbs work in tandem with the body they address the root cause of the problem unlike conventional treatments that only treat the symptoms. Herbs work gradually and at a slow pace.

Herbs work better when used in a combination form with each herb helping in tackling one particular disease inducing factor. And when these herbs are accompanied with the right food items like fresh fruits and vegetables they can work wonders.

Herbal acne treatment like with any other natural cure lead to a temporary crisis i.e. the situation worsens before becoming better. Herbs stimulate the body towards a intensive detoxification and that leads the liver to discharge a lot of toxins in the blood stream which aggravates the situation for a while. But this is proves effective as it helps the body to restore to its natural tendency of healing itself and return to the state of homeostasis and work really hard to heal itself.

When taken in the form of blend or tincture herbal acne treatments prove really effective. They purify the blood of toxic build ups, help restore hormonal balance and enhance live functions and help it in expelling excess hormones and toxics out of the body. They also help in fighting Candida and various fungal infections that afflict the eliminations organs and worsen acnes condition.

The only problem being herbal acne treatments only work for a short time.

Why don’t herbal treatments have a permanent effect?

Herbs help the body to do its own work by helping in breaking up the toxic elements, by helping in cleansing and nourishing processes by helping fight harmful bacteria and parasites. But however high the potency level of an herb might be they can NEVER cure your acnes completely.

There are two reasons why this is so:

1. In order to permanently cure your acnes, in addition to cleansing processes, optimizing the lifestyle, achieving hormonal balance, the elimination organs of the body also need to be strengthened and though the herbs do help in the process they can never replace them.

Example: If you are suffering from toxic build up in your blood like most acne sufferers herbs that help in cleansing the blood however potent they may be they can never be a substitute for blood and liver cleansing processes. In the same way that a mechanical issue in your car can’t simply be fixed by just a change in the oil or the fuel.

2. Though some like Echinacea (helps in reducing inflammation and helps in the healing process) and aloe vera (loaded with astringent and anti-bacterial qualities) can be continued for a long time span most herbs should not be continued for long. The reason being; most herbs like dandelion boost up a organ to function in top gear for some time, which itself can be dangerous on a long time span, but then it stops working. That’s the nature of herbs.

Another reason being the healing crisis that the herbs create in the body induces the body to harder to regulate itself and that in a way neutralizes the potency levels of the herbs.

Herbal treatments need to work in tandem with other protocols to succeed

There are various herbs that help in reducing symptoms. Some herbs can be used as effecting cleansing elements. Some boost up the functioning of various organs. Some help fight fungal infections, some help build up the hormonal balance, some strengthen the liver and help in purifying the blood. And all these together help in positively taking care of acne condition.

But this over stimulation of your liver in expelling the toxics eventually tires the liver and the positive effect caused by the herbs is gradually over.

It is better to strengthen the liver in such a way and beforehand o that the liver continues to expel toxics and excess hormones out of the body even after the temporary boost up by herbs ahs been over.

Also since this hormonal imbalance and the toxic build up in the body is caused by carious internal and external factors and as these cleansing process are very complex the herbs require the help of various protocols other than the strengthening the liver in order to successfully cure the acnes.

Conclusion: A herbal acne treatment to work effectively needs to be accompanied with various other protocols and also it needs to be kept in mind that herbs need to be taken in cycles such as 2-3 weeks on and then again the same number of weeks off.
