Hi Guys!!
A proof for those reluctant to believe that Acne is related to Intestinal disorders is Adult Acne. The question in this case would be: how adults develop acne when they are not suppossed to generate enough testosterone such as to produce sebum and therefore acne. As we age we tend to produce less hormones (including testosterone), and this is in fact one of the first aging symptomps in our body. Since acne is supposed to be produced because Testosterone turns into Dihydrotestosterone through 5-alpha-reductase, then how adults develop acne?
The answer for the above question might be that acne is also produced by toxins into the bloodstream due to permeability problems of the intestine. If your intestine does not filter out toxins then your kidneys and liver will have the whole burden and will stress.
By cleaning your bowels with fiber, you will not solve your intestine permeability problems.
There are laboratory test to measure how efficient are your bowels to absorb nutrients and reject toxins. This is what I found at Great Smokies Laboratory:
The small intestine has the paradoxical dual function of being a digestive/ absorptive organ for nutrients as well as a powerful barrier against the excessive absorption of bacteria, food antigens and large molecules. Increased permeability of the intestinal mucosal barrier can swell the number of toxins & antigens entering the bloodstream and lead to an overly sensitized immune system in some individuals. Decreased permeability, on the other hand, appears as a fundamental cause of malnutrition, malabsorption and failure to thrive. A number of clinical disorders are associated with both conditions.
The Intestinal Permeability Assessment directly measures the ability of two nonmetabolized sugar molecules –mannitol and lactulose–to permeate the intestinal mucosa. Mannitol is easily absorbed and serves as a marker of transcellular uptake, while lactulose is only slightly absorbed and serves as a marker for mucosal integrity. To perform the test, the patient mixes premeasured amounts of lactulose and mannitol and drinks the challenge substance. The test measures the amount of lactulose and mannitol recovered in a urine sample over the next 6 hours.

Well then if fiber isn't the whole answer what is then?
