Many of us have experienced the pain and embarrassment of acne at some time in our lives. Those red pimples seem to be a social stigma, even if others have them too. Some of us are left with the deep physical and emotional scars of severe acne. But it doesn’t have to be that way any longer.

Leading dermatologists and scientific research have concluded that the primary cause of acne in both teenage girls and boys, and about 50% of adult women, is hormonal imbalance. Young people’s hormones are going crazy with high levels of testosterone. And women are experiencing hormonal changes as they approach their 40’s and 50’s. In my research, I have discovered a direct link between the chemicals in the products we use on our skin and hormone disruption.

Many of the synthetic chemicals commonly found in acne treatments are in fact, xeno-estrogens (false hormones). Other ingredients are known hormone disruptors. All of these Age Accelerators send mixed messages to our cells and body, scrambling our hormones and resulting in acne. Even worse, many of these chemicals are found in breast cancer tumors and may also lead to depression, birth defects and other aging diseases.

If those other treatments haven’t worked for you, it’s not your fault, You probably did not have the information to know some of the ingredients actually aggravated your acne. The cosmetic companies know these facts and don’t tell you. They even tried to stop the recently passed California Safe Cosmetics Act, which will attempt to ban many of these chemicals. Companies use slick advertising with paid doctors and celebrities, giving you false hope that their products will work for you. And although you may have short term results like some of the testimonials, what is the long term cost to your future.

At last, there is a positive solution. Clinically tested formulas with effective, organic or wild-crafted ingredients are now available. The AcneTx™ System has been proven effective when compared with leading brands. This regimen is clearly preferred over other acne products by participants and the results are incredible! This system is Certified ToxicFree® -- FREE of synthetic chemicals, that cause sensitivities, allergies, blackheads, redness, or inflammation. Especially important is the fact that this treatment system does not cause hormonal disruption. The primary active ingredient is ESA™ (Enhanced Salicylic Acid), a very gentle, proven effective, acne medicine. It helps eliminate acne without the negative side effects of benzyl peroxide.

We all know life would not exist without oxygen. Well, our skin needs more oxygen than we can get from the air around us (much of which is polluted anyway). A unique part of the AcneTx™ Treatment System is OxyTx™ Toner with patented Oxyene™. This stabilized liquid oxygen is soaked in by the pores, giving your skin a new breath of life, freshness and health. The entire treatment system enhances the overall look and texture of your skin.

As an informed consumer, you now have an effective, healthy choice. I would recommend that you avoid the following at all cost:

• Benzyl peroxide: causes skin irritation, allergic reactions & inflammation; (Material Safety Data Sheet)
• All products containing parabens (methyl, propyl, butyl, ethyl): xeno-estrogens; found in human breast tumors (BrunelUniversity; Journal of Applied Toxicology)
• Propylene glycol: may contribute to central nervous system depression (U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services)
• Imidazolidinyl urea: a ‘free’ formaldehyde suspected to be a carcinogen (Virginia Tech)
• Fragrance: some are hormone disruptors; contain highly toxic chemicals (Environmental Health Network; FDA Office of Cosmetics Fact Sheet)
• PEG: potentially carcinogenic and hormone disrupting due to presence of dioxin (Congressional Subcommittee Testimony by Asst Surgeon General)

I sincerely want you to have the results you desire. You no longer have to suffer from acne. There are safe, effective natural acne products available to you. Stay informed so you can make intelligent choices.
