Acne isn't just in the west. It's in every single country in the world - even in remote tanzanian tribes in africa acne is present (look up pictures if you refuse to believe me). It's ubiquitous, and has existed since the dawn of man. It's not just in "Murica" it's the world. Everybody on the planet experience zits from time to time it's only human. We are not meant to be perfect, we are designed to have flaws. if you're so obsessed with having entirely flawless skin than I suggest you move to

Depression is not a "chemical imabalance" - that theory was proven false when they tested the actual levels of depressed patients sertonin levels ect. which were found to be normal. There for accutane can not induce depression or any other mental health problem as a chemical imbalance does not exist. This is all just your imagination.... depression is just your response to your crap life.

Acne is an incurable disease that will last the rest of your life and even stay with you when you die and go to hell (all people with bad zits go to hell, it's punishment for being ugly). I am a dermatologist who has studied pimpleology and I can tell you right now that acne never gets better.

You don't think there are people with severe acne additionally living in abysmal poverty? silly kid.

- People severe acne should stay in their homes. She was asking for it by coming out in public. - What I write is not vitriol it is simply my opinion - That forum member is actually a troll (alternavista or whatever) - That girl with a "PHD" is a Canadian and says ABOOT, Eh and SOREY. Canucks can't even pronounce simple words, how do you expect one to attain a PHD? Canadian university is like a special education classroom.

Your acne will come back. SAHRRY YA'LL (I see you're from the south)

Im confused on this. Is he stating its fake and made up virus used to fetch billions in profit? Because when you step in the room of a patient who is severely malnourished, has Kaposi's sarcoma lesions throughout,has trouble breathing from PCP pneumonia [a type often easily defeated by a normal immune system] it hits you. This is real. This is end-stage AIDS. Its very real when you look at the medications one takes: NRTI's, NNRTI's, PI's etc. These drugs are hell on the body, and not cheap. Bu

Because leaky gut is probably really Chron's disease. It's even associated with acneiform eruptions: http://www.dermnetnz.org/systemic/crohns-skin.html

I'm sorry but leaky gut is not real. I could link about 100 articles exposing the theory to be bogus. I think what you have is just standard IBS or possibly even crohn's (it presents differently in each person). Here's a good article that you might like http://gut.bmj.com/content/53/12/1724.full

I don't think we can really compare canada to the u.s in terms of acne prevalance as I mentioned before because of the dramatic population difference. A country like china or russia in comparison to the united states in terms of how many people get acne would be an interesting comparison. Apparently many people in china suffer from inflammatory acne (as I've heard here on the forums).

There are reasons for this and it has nothing to do with vitamin D. Here we go: - Canada has a much smaller population, 35 million, less people, less acne in comparison to the U.S. - Universal healthcare. Canadians at any income can get their acne treated or under control free of charge which is probaby why people are claiming to see 'less' of acne in Canada. - Cold climate (which is less likely to aggravate acne)
