ACNE FIGHTERS, THESE ARE THE REASON WHY YOU MUST PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR GUT
If you are an acne fighter and had done so many things to
get rid of your acne but the problem still does not give a good impact on your
skin, it might be your gut problem. There is so much research that has been proven
about acne problem that more than its surface. Due to this fact, the gut is the
stronghold factor to determine your skin. These are the reason why you must pay
attention to the gut instead of daily putting your skincare on:
Gut-Skin Are Connected
How it can be like that? Carla Oates, Gut Health Expert and
Founder of The Beauty Chef stated that "The skin is a great barometer of
what is going on inside the body. If your skin is irritated, inflamed, or
congested, chances are high that there may be an imbalance in your gut”
Your gut has a role to extract nutrients, absorb energy, and
expelled as feces but it depends on the food nutrients that you take. If you
experience any issues with the gut, skin is usually the first place to notice the
problems.
You Are What You Eat
Maybe you often hear this tagline and sorry to say it because it
is totally true. The healthy gut inside of your body is reflected in your daily
consumed food. The link between diet and acne has been controversial, but
recent research shows that diet can play a significant role in acne development.
If you really want to get over acne, make sure you
always put your plate with high-nutrient food. Good nutrition will
get redirected to parts of the body's needs. But don’t expect to get a healthy skin
result if your daily food intake is low nutrients but high in sugar, dairy, and
gluten because these will build up toxins in the gut then affects how your skin
looks and reference patterns of acne.
On the other hand, sometimes it is not necessary to
completely avoid kind of food that causes acne, just please make it balance
with high nutrient foods.
Gut Microbes Helps to Absorb Nutrients for Skin
Humans are nothing without microbes. This unseen with an eye
creatures have a big role in your gut like stimulate the immune system, break down potentially toxic food compounds, and synthesize certainly
vitamins and amino acids.
According to the research acne sufferers have marked
alterations to their intestinal microflora (microbes who live inside the
intestines to digest food). This means that if your gut has a lot of good microbes,
it will protect your intestinal free from bad bacteria and vice versa.
In addition, the digestive system can't extract all the
necessary nutrients from all the different types of food. So, we need various
types of microbes to absorb all good nutrients to produce vitamins that are essential for skin health. How to add some good microbes inside the gut? Consume
food that contains probiotics such as yogurt, tempeh, and kimchi.
Meanwhile, microbes also need some food to make them still
alive which is prebiotics like fiber. “Once we've fed the microbes, they
certainly get busy. The billions of microbes living in our gut produce B
vitamins which are essential for normal skin growth and repair” explains Dr Sabine
Donnai of Health Assessment Service Viavi.
