One of the major causes of
acne is hormone imbalance.
The first part of balancing
your hormones is by regulating
their production.
The second part to balancing
your hormones is by effectively
removing used up hormones
from the body via the liver.
Both parts play a part in
leaving too many hormones
in the system that are responsible
for excess skin oil production
which leads to acne by clogging
your pores and allowing the
growth of bacteria.

up hormones and how you can
help this process so that
you don't end up with too
many hormones in your system.

deactivating hormones so their
levels aren't too high. This
can become a demanding task

with other pollutants such
as car fumes, heavy metals,
smoke, pesticides and all
the other toxic materials
that find their way into your
body.

sluggish with all the above
stresses are thrown at it.

with nutrients that help stregthen
it's function and help it
eliminate waste and used up
hormones.

extract is excellent for protecting
the liver and also improves

thistle goes directly to the
liver cells and promotes repair
and regeneration.

Nettles, Gravel Root, Golden

and can be purchased from
