Since 1982 Accutane has been a reliable, if not controversial, drug
for treating severe acne. Now with FDA representative David J.
Graham’s statement that Accutane should be taken off the market, and
pharmaceutical manufacturer La Roche’s defense of Accutane’s safety
in a Florida courtroom, access to Accutane faces mounting
restrictions.

Author of Acne Messages: Crack the code of your zits and say goodbye
to acne, Naweko San-Joyz, understands the concerns facing acne
sufferer’s who desire Accutane-like results. San-Joyz conducted
research to inexpensively mimic the effects of Accutane. “ Accutane
provokes five acne-fighting actions that anyone can replicate using
nutrition and self-care”, explains San-Joyz.
Reduce excess oil secretion:

Accutane is a derivative of vitamin A and reduces the secretion of
oil by the oil glands.

Foods that supply the body with Vitamin A and beta-carotene (which
is converted to vitamin A by the body) include: Liver, oily fish,
whole eggs, carrots, sweet potatoes, and broccoli.
Encourage extreme shedding of the skin:
Using a peel is the easiest method to promote shedding of the skin.
Exfoliation releases the build-up of dead skin cells, oils and
bacteria trapped in the pores, which could lead to the formation of
blemishes.

Extreme peels
Peels come in varying degrees, from mild to harsh. The
trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel is an extreme peel that can cost
from $100 to $1000 depending on the degree of the treatment. It is
only performed in a doctor’s office. The TCA is not a save all
however. The peel can make the skin sensitive to the sun cause
hyper-pigmentation.
Home use peels:
Several over-the-counter peels contain papaya enzymes or glycolic
acid. These peels lightly exfoliate the skin and are safe for weekly
use.

Reduce the spread of bacterial infection:
Using an astringent such as witch hazel or apple cider vinegar to
disinfect the skin significantly reduces the presence of bacteria on
the face. This reduction limits skin inflammation and the likelihood
of a pimple developing.

Enhance Fat Metabolism:
Free fatty acids can irritate the skin and provoke acne eruptions.
Reducing intake of foods containing hydrolyzed fats will improve fat
metabolism. However, do consume essential fatty acids such as
Omega-3 and Omega-6, which are found in foods such as salmon and
olive oil. These essential fats aid the gastrointestinal tract
eliminate pro-inflammatory substances, which reduces the possibility
of experiencing acne lesions.

Reduce inflammation:
A strong immune system serves as a buffer against inflammation.
Stress reducing activities such as exercising, eating a
well-balanced diet and sleeping well boosts the immune system. A
diet supplemented with B-Complex, zinc and vitamins C and E likewise
enhances the effectiveness of the immune system.

Like Accutane, these five steps will not work overnight. Accutane
works via creating a bodily environment that is not conducive to
acne. By adhering to the nutritional and aesthetic steps above,
anyone can attain clear skin while simultaneously augmenting their
health.
