INSIGHT

Acne Has Multiple Root Causes

  • Acne involves multiple root causes like hormones, inflammation, infection, irritation, and stress.
  • Conventional treatments target one cause, but real healing requires addressing all contributing factors.

Foundations for Skin Health

  • Check iron levels as excess iron can cause inflammation and skin issues; sometimes blood donations help reduce it.
