How To Use Fish Oil To Help You Stop Acne

If you want to control acne breakouts, you need to supplement your diet with fish oils which contain omega-3 and omega-6 oils. These fish oil also contains EPA and DHA fatty acids which are necessary for creating prostaglandins.

Normally, enzymes in your body break down omega-6 into
DGLA, AA, EPA and DHA fatty acids.

Dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid (DGLA)

Arachidonic Acid (AA)

Eicosapentaenoic Acid (EPA)

Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA)

These four fatty acids eventually change into prostaglandins.

What are prostaglandins?

Prostaglandins are chemical hormones that come from
omega-3 and omega-6 oils and that help,

regulate every function in your cells and organs.

Postaglandins also keep androgen hormones in control so
that excess sebum is not produce in the hair follicle, which
results in acne.

This is the reason why Essential Fatty Acids – Omega-3 and
Omega-6 – are critical foods to eat.

However, eating plenty essential fatty acids may not insure
that you produce enough EPA and DHA, which produce the
essential prostaglandins.

It is critical for acne and more importantly for your
health that you get enough EPA and DHA in your cells
and organs so they can produce the required
prostaglandins.

To increase the prostaglandins in your cell walls, it is
necessary for you to take a fish supplement, which contains
both the EPA and DHA.

Of course eating salmon, halibut, and mackerel twice a week
will be a plus in providing your body with more EPA and
DHA.

Here’s what I use daily. Spectrum Essentials puts out an
excellent product called

Omega-3 Norwegian Fish Oil

Two capsules contains

EPA – 360mg

DHA – 240mg

Omega-3 – 892mg

Stearic, Lauric, Palmitic Acids – 508mg

Using the Omega-3 Norwegian Fish Oil is critical in
getting relief from acne, so take two capsules per
meal.

When your body creates prostaglandins, it creates a good prostaglandin and a bad prostaglandin. Here’s how to encourage the production of good prostaglandins.

ˇMaintain a ratio of two times more omega-6 than omega-3 in your diet.

ˇEating too much omega-6 can lead to producing excess bad prostaglandins.

ˇTake a multi-vitamin and minerals with your meals to provide these nutrients for breaking down the

essential fatty acids into prostaglandins

ˇReduce the amount of meat, saturated fat, dairy, and eggs you eat to reduce the production of AA, which blocks the activities of the good prostaglandins

ˇEat cold water fish at least twice a week to provide EPA and DHA to your diet

Include at least 20% of your diet calories as good fats –
omega oils and fish oil. This is essential for controlling the
excess activity of your hormones and reducing the
inflammation of your acne.
