Symptoms, conditions and causes

What's the connection between high insulin and acne? Can I remedy it?

When you eat high amounts of sugar or carbohydrates, that increases your insulin level. Insulin, in its turn, increases androgens (male sex hormones that play a role in the amount of oil your skin produces). When your androgens are elevated, you get skin acne.
