Say Goodbye to Acne: Dr. Berg’s Proven Methods for Clearing Your Skin

Wondering how to get rid of acne fast? Give these tips a try.

hey guys dr. Berg here in this video we’re going to talk about how to get rid of acne fast okay and this is getting rid of the root cause the problem with most people trying to get rid of their acne is they’re just treating the acne directly and that’s treating the symptom they never get to the root cause and they they make some mistakes choose mistakes scrubbing your face with cleansers that’s a very bad idea why because you have all this friendly bacteria on your skin they’re supposed to protect your skin and you basically scrub it off so you’re sterilizing your skin and then you wonder why it comes back or acne comes back or you have other issues so scrubbing the face really really hard and in with cleansers is not a good idea I’m not saying don’t clean your face but don’t start scrubbing I made the mistake of that I had really bad acne in high school and I would scrub and trying to I think would be some like blackhead and dirt that I described off not good it never worked antibiotics what happens to antibiotics it will help with acne but it comes right back even worse because you kill off the good in the back of bad bacteria you create strains very strong resilient strains with bad bacteria that now don’t work against antibiotics and so it’s not a long term correction accutane is a kind of a synthetic version of vitamin A which does work but it has some slight minor complications like nosebleeds infertility blindness I think it’s off the market now if I’m not mistaken but these are some mistakes that people make so what we need to do is we did the secret is to find out what’s really causing the problem in understanding what the problem really is okay so that has to do with understanding what the sebaceous gland is this is spaceless gland is a gland right underneath your acne that is creating the problem so here’s what’s happening you have like five different situations you have extra tissue tissue being formed you know in a form of like a little flake a dryness an extra skin nodule then you have a plug poor okay and then also can give you whiteheads or blackheads which really has to do with this tissue kind of plugging up that poor you have inflammation it’s complained red painful you have unfriendly bacteria in there that are feeding off the oil and that oil is called sebum okay that’s like the waxy oily thing that’s supposed to lubricate the skin so you have excess oil or see them and then you have enlarged gland okay all these things are happening and that’s really what acne is it’s not just one thing so my whole thing is let’s get deeper let’s see what we can do to correct the original reason why it’s there in the first place okay well the unique thing about the sebaceous gland is it’s very highly sensitive to hormones specifically androgens which is like a male hormone and even estrogen both of those hormones okay now the way that you know it’s more estrogen related usually in females and you would notice if during your cycle or right before your cycle it gets worse okay it might be maybe it’s even on one side of the face which means it’s if it’s on the left side it’s on the left ovary because the ovaries repetitively go back and forth each month and release the egg and produce more hormones so what happens if you have it more on this side that means the left ovary is pumping out too much estrogen okay so it could be estrogen especially which related to your cycle or could be antigen so let’s just let’s just start with the androgen situation antigen one form of androgen is called testosterone men and women have testosterone men have it in more mouths larger amounts women do still have it in certain amounts you need it but if you’re a female you don’t need much of it but in this situation you’re pumping out too much and too much antigen will increase the sebum the oil the size of the gland itself and extra tissue so that’s really what it’s doing now my question is why why are you producing too much androgen right you say well I’m going through puberty or whatever even menopause can do it right well there’s a couple reasons for that number one you may have a condition called PCOS polycystic ovarian syndrome I put a link down below if you’ve never heard about it before but that’s basically a situation where you’re female and your ovaries are pumping out too much and androgen okay and the three big symptoms are acne hair loss or alopecia or facial hair okay a deeper voice as well so those are the symptoms but while we’re on this topic let’s just talk about what causes PCOS it’s really high levels of insulin okay and it’s a condition called insulin resistance if you look this up sometimes in the medical literature it’ll say that PCOS is associated with insulin and then in a some associated it’s caused by insulin because every single time you improve the insulin situation the PCF goes away so you might want to learn more about that if you you don’t know about insulin resistance okay and you have acne you need to read some of the videos I’ll put a list them down below because it’s probably one of the most important things that you can understand about because it’s so simple to fix this thing if you know what it is and what to do and then you can actually kill two birds one stone handle the PCOS handle the antigen handle the acne - okay so insulin very important to handle that naturally so that’s one cause the other cause is that you have too much of a certain enzyme that is converting your testosterone into something called DHT that’s just a very powerful form of testosterone so DHT is like 10 times stronger than regular testosterone okay so there’s too much of the certain enzyme that’s just making way too much strong testosterone in your body so now why would that happen right well one of the reasons is that you don’t your vitamin A deficient so vitamin A will actually help reduce that enzyme okay and that’s probably why accutane works because accutane is a version of vitamin A a synthetic version so I would start taking vitamin A in the form of extraversion cod liver oil okay a high quality cod liver oil get the extraversion you can get it on Amazon it’s a little more expensive but it’s really good for your skin so vitamin A will help the skin greatly in improving this situation the vitamin b5 is another vitamin that also works with vitamin A and it helps reduce acne that’s another remedy also to help this enzyme be Lord and then zinc zinc is very very powerful for getting rid of acne because it lowers this enzyme okay so so we have lowering the insulin okay adding vitamin a in column oil and also increasing b5 in zinc those are the things that I would do if I had acne right now I wish I would have known about this in high school because I would have done this it would have cleared things up very nicely now let’s shift gears over to estrogen so if you have an estrogen problem that’s a little different now what could cause an high estrogen there’s a lot of things that can cause it but the big cause is a liver dysfunction okay the liver is not eliminating the bad estrogen that’s in your body there’s an enzyme in the liver called aroma taste similar to this enzyme but basically it will take the estrogen testosterone that you have and switch it over to estrogen okay so now here you are you know you don’t have this problem you have a different issue over here and that made me come from a liver issue and this can happen in men and women but here’s the symptoms or the problems with the liver you could have a fatty liver which a lot of people have or scar tissue deliver a cold liver cirrhosis that comes from the inflammation in the liver from that eating or a virus like hepatitis something like that or even a fatty liver fatty liver will then turn into cirrhosis over time and again these these are not isolated situatio
