The Reason is Processed Foods!

For thousands of years while the human body was being formed and evolved, our ancestors would live off of the foods mother nature gave us – they would 'live off the resources of land'. Meat, fish, coconuts, vegetables, etc. Their primary concern was survival, and the health of their offspring, just like animals are in nature.

This evolution went on for thousands and thousands of years until just 100 measly years ago, the advent of industrialization and processed foods came about.

Nowadays, acne, and disease in general is more widespread than its ever been. Doctors and Psychiatrists are coming up with names for new diseases every year. The pharmaceutical industry is now bigger than any other in the world. The processing of foods, which some would call necessary, has had a major impact on the health and skin quality of millions!

Why does food exist in the first place?

To provide nutrition! Our body has evolved to take the necessary nutrients it needs from foods, and use those nutrients to legislate needed actions.

If the 'food' you are eating is devoid of nutrients, your body will have to deal with digesting and expelling it with no direct benefit. Without the resources brought through nutrients, digesting this food becomes a daunting task for your body. It will cause constipation, and it will cause acne!

White Bread: The Perfect Example

How did white bread come about? Back in the day people discovered they could use grain to make bread. Grain was cheap and the bread it produced could feed more people.

So bread started being distributed amongst small communities. When the economy began it's expansion, railroads were being built, and bread was a good food to distribute to far places. It didn't go bad as quickly as meat or fish would, it was cheap, and it kept stomachs full.

There was one problem with the bread distributors master plan. When the bread was being shipped via railroad, the flies would get to it in transit -- and eat it. 'This isn't good for business,' they thought. 'There's some nutritious value to our food and the flies like it'. That's when they created the concept of white bread. By removing the germ from the grain, all the nutritious value was gone. The flies no longer wanted to eat it.

May I remind you, flies like to eat DOG SHIT. Meaning that stinky piece of poo Scruffy has left in the backyard has more nutritious value then white bread.

Injecting Foods With Nutrients - The Easy Way Out

Due to regulations imposed by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), white bread must contain a certain amount of Vitamins and Minerals. But how does a bread company who processes their food achieve the 'nutrition quota.' They inject them! They inject their foods with synthetic vitamins and minerals, so when you read 'Riboflavin' on your Wonder Bread's ingredient list, you'll know how it got there.

Synthetics aren't the only thing they inject the bread with. Did you know that the white bread you are eating has sugar in it? (More specifically, high fructose corn syrup) Manufacturers of common bread brands such as 'Wonder Bread' inject their 'food' with high fructose corn syrup to give it taste. Anyone who understands some connection between diet and acne understand that sugar is bad for your skin!

Now realize that this is just bread – modern processing techniques have come a long way with a multitude of foods. Now we have the wonderful ability to genetically process corn so we can produce more of it, so flies won't eat it. We have the ability to give cows hormones so they produce more milk. All of this food is being distributed to the common consumer.

What does this mean for the acne sufferer?

Their is a common rule - any foods that are damaging to our body will be damaging to our skin. All modern processed foods are not natural. Remember that humans took thousands and thousands of years to evolve into what we take in as healthy and unhealthy. We've been eating solely meat and fish for a very, very long time. Now all of the sudden, say 100 or so years ago, we come up with all these BS food making techniques. Cancer is on the rise – acne is on the rise as well.
