  The Fall season slows our bodily systems as a means to store energy for the winter. This means a sluggish liver which often brings hormonal cystic acne, especially in the chin area.

   The Eight Greens line is here to help! This is a phytoestrogen-based line that is specifically used to treat hormonal imbalances in the skin. These hormonal imbalance result in an increase in oil gland production in the skin which can clog pores and cause breakouts.

  The Eight Greens serum, the Eight Greens Whip moisturizer, and the Eight Greens masks have added paprika to stimulate and detoxify. They also help clear up existing cystic breakouts and prevent any more from appearing.

What’s more, it is highly recommended that you limit foods that increase inflammation, for example, sugar, dairy and refined carbohydrates, while at the same time you should add foods to your diet that promote hormonal health such as healthy fats, leafy greens and foods high in zinc and omega-3 fatty acids.

• Let The Facial Room Help You Keep Your Skin Look Toned and Glowing as We Transition into a New Season

  Blog, skin care advice, skin care in fall

  

  One of the most common issues we see at The Facial Room heading into fall is dull, devitalized skin. This is partly because of sun exposure from a fun-filled summer, also due to the liver starting to slow down as we transition into the colder fall season and our bodies begin to conserve energy for the colder months. Breakouts can also start showing up as our skin is trying to purge what the liver is trying to process.

  Here is a guide to help you transition smoothly into fall and keep that glow all season long!

  Step 2: Physical Exercise to Stimulate the Liver

  Unlike the heart or lungs, the liver is an organ which we don’t normally associate with regular physical exercise. However, researchers have found that exercising and staying physically active can help keep the liver stay healthy. By maintaining ideal body weight, we ensure the liver is functioning properly.

  

  In fact, research has even suggested that regular exercise can prevent and reverse fatty liver disease. Clinical trials have shown that both aerobic and resistance exercise reduce our liver fat content. Exercise increases fatty acid oxidation, decreases fatty acid synthesis, and prevents mitochondrial and hepatocellular damage through a reduction of the release of damage-associated molecular patterns. Basically, physical exercise involving walking, jogging, swimming, dancing and weight training is an effective way to fight fatty liver disease.

  Step 3: Consume Drinks/Foods to Stimulate the Liver

  Keeping your liver functioning at peak performance in order to break down toxins like alcohol and natural byproducts of metabolism, partly depends on consuming certain foods and drinks and avoiding others.

  Drinks

  • Coffee reduces fat buildup in the liver and increases protective antioxidants. It also helps liver enzymes eliminate cancer-causing substances.
  • Green tea, like coffee, is believed to reduce overall fat content in the liver. It also reduces oxidative stress and other signs of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.

  Fruit & Berries

  • Blueberries, raspberries and cranberries contain anthocyanins, antioxidants which give berries their distinctive dark colours. What’s more, they help keep the liver healthy by slowing down the development of lesions and fibrosis and the development of scar tissue in the liver. By adding these berries to your diet, you ensure that your liver is supplied with the antioxidants it needs to stay healthy.
  • Grapefruit contains antioxidants that naturally protect the liver by reducing inflammation and protecting cells. If you make grapefruit part of your daily diet, you keep your liver healthy by fighting damage and inflammation.
  • Grapes, especially the darker varieties, are liver-friendly food since the compounds they contain, like resveratol, can lower inflammation, prevent liver damage and increasing antioxidant levels.
  • Prickly pears may also be beneficial to liver health. Studies have found that compounds in the fruit may help protect the liver.

  Vegetables

  Cruciferous vegetables such as Brussels sprouts, broccoli, kale and mustard greens are recognized for their high fiber content. However, they also contain highly beneficial plant compounds which increase levels of detoxification enzymes and protect the liver from damage.

  Nuts

  

  Most nuts contain unsaturated fatty acids, vitamin E, and antioxidants which help prevent nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, reduce inflammation and oxidative stress. If you make eating a handful of nuts, such as walnuts or almonds, part of your daily diet, you can help maintain liver health. It should be noted though that nuts are high in calories.

  Fatty Fish

  It is recommended that we consume fatty fish and fish oil supplements to help reduce the possibility of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Fatty fish should become part of our diet since they are a rich source of omega-3 fatty acids, which help reduce inflammation. These fats prevent the accumulation of excess fats and maintain enzyme levels in the liver.

  It is suggested to eat oily fish two or more times each week which is not an easy thing to do. Fortunately, we can take daily fish oil supplements.

  Olive oil

  Generally, it’s not a good idea to eat too much vegetable or animal fats. However, olive oil has a high content of unsaturated fatty acids which help reduce oxidative stress and improve liver function.
