The causes of acne are complex and very different for everyone. Here are most common known causes of acne and acne pimple natural treatment.

* The absolute first thing that anyone who is prone to spots needs is zinc. Zinc deficiency is the number one cause of spots and a good quality supplement must be taken, as this mineral can be difficult to get in food.

* If acne is in your genes, then eating something that doesn’t suit you can create a disaster. Sometimes just one morsel of food can cause a breakout. A food intolerance test is a necessity for anyone who desires smooth skin.

* Chemicals, Chemical, Chemicals. They are everywhere. Just because you don’t rub something on your face, doesn’t mean it won’t affect it. Because the skin is one large organ, what the foot touches could cause a spot on the back.

Shampoo, hair gel, toothpaste, foot balm, body lotion, cleaning products, laundry detergent, washing up liquid; every chemical is a suspect. And even if you think you are using a natural organic product that is great for someone else, it doesn’t mean it suits you. Some people (myself included) are so sensitive that they need to vary the skin products they use from week to week so they don’t become intolerant.

* Candida overgrowth is another big factor in acne and other skin complaints. If it is growing on the inside, herbs are generally the best way to sort it. If it is simply Candida on the skin, then tea tree oil or the Australian Bush remedy Green essence among others may clear it. Seeing a practitioner who specialises in Candida can be incredibly useful.

* Hormonal imbalances may be at the root of your skin woes. If so, most certainly Candida plays a role as it disturbs hormonal balance, and you may need to take other herbs to get the hormones back on track.

* Essential fatty acids may also be the root of acne and other skin complaints. Omega 3 is found in fish oil and flaxseed oil. Omega 6 may be found in evening primrose oil and starflower oil, and may be beneficial to take by mouth, or even to rub on the skin.

* Vitamin A is another good remedy for acne and is an acne blackheads natural treatment.
