Herbal Compound Treatment – A Natural Cure for Acne

Alpha-Lipoic Acid

This is an anti-oxidant in the form of a compound. Alpha-Lipoic Acid helps to flush toxins from your body and neutralise free radicals in both water soluble and fat soluble cell wall compartments. (If you want to know more about Alpha-Lipoic, just run a search in the top right search box for more articles relating to this.)

Alpha-Lipoic Acid has been documented as a stabiliser of blood sugar levels as well. It stands to reason then that it also stabilises production of androgens- hormones, known to increase acne breakouts. One doctor has also noted that ALA may be beneficial in healing scars caused by acne, although this is under heavy debate.

If your health or natural treatment dealer carries Alpha-Lipoic Acid compounds ask for R-ALA. R-ALA is easiest absorbed by your body. Typical dosage range: 30 – 500 mg daily.
