Genetic Tendencies
The last factor in the acne equation is genetic tendencies. This is by far the
most important factor leading to the formation of acne. Unfortunately most
genetic factors cannot be controlled or deactivated.
Genetic tendencies are merely individual tendencies of the body to act or
react in a certain way that is not common to everyone. Genetic tendencies are
the missing link that explains the difference between people who have acne
and those who do not.
Some researchers have claimed that people who have acne suffer from either
weak and sluggish digestion systems or from having weak liver functions. This
is one explanation as to why two people can eat the same food (leading to
over-blood toxicity) and be the same age (such as puberty when there are
elevated androgen levels) and yet one suffers from acne and the other does
not. However, medical studies trying to establish the cause of acne have shown
that acne sufferers and non-sufferers, have no difference in liver function.
Some acne sufferers can have a weak liver capacity, but so do people who
have never suffered from acne in their lives.
The only genetic difference between acne sufferers and non-sufferers is that
acne sufferers seem to have oil glands that are sensitive to even the slightest
elevation in androgen levels.
This over-sensitivity of the oil gland receptors is the third most important yet
uncontrollable factor in the acne equation. Note that there could be other
genetic factors that differentiate acne sufferers from non-sufferers such as the
size of the oil gland, the skin type and other, unknown hereditary factors. At
present, the most prominent genetic component in the formation of acne
seems to be the over sensitivity of oil gland receptors.
