Most people think acne is simply caused by clogged pores, excess oil, and bacteria. But what if that's only part of the story?
But what if that's only part of the story?
In this episode, John Ossipinsky (LymphMan) explains why researchers increasingly recognize acne as more than a skin condition.
Acne affects nearly 50 million Americans every year and impacts approximately 85% of adolescents and young adults.
Research suggests acne is influenced by inflammation, stress, anxiety, depression, blood sugar regulation, hormones, the gut-brain-skin axis, and the health of the skin's environment.
This episode explores the growing evidence behind these connections while examining an often-overlooked question:
👉 Could a compromised lymphatic system contribute to inflammation and a less healthy environment within the skin?
While research has not proven that lymphatic dysfunction causes acne, scientists have shown that lymphatic vessels play important roles in regulating inflammation and maintaining healthy tissue.
