Introducing Quit Acne

I am excited to finally reveal my most recent project: my new book Quit Acne, which is now available on Amazon as a Kindle book! (And speaking of Kindle books, I also just moved my other books – Indulge and Heal and Quit PMS – to Kindle. You can check out Indulge and Heal here and Quit PMS here.)

Here is the book summary from the Amazon page: 

Your acne is telling you something… and it’s not telling you to invest in a heavy-duty concealer or a pricey facial serum! Your acne is a symptom telling you that something is wrong inside your body.

In Quit Acne, nutritional therapist Lauren Geertsen explains, in her thorough and accessible style, the three primary underlying causes of acne. Then, she equips you with 7 effective and practical dietary practices to address the cause of acne and eliminate it. By following the Quit Acne nutrition protocol, you’ll enjoy radiant, clear skin naturally.

Quit Acne covers key topics, including:

• Why the correct dietary fats are vital for eliminating acne, while other fats cause breakouts.
• The ingredients for clear skin that you can only get from animal sources.
• The one food that wreaks havoc on hormones and exacerbates acne.
• Why going dairy-free isn’t necessarily the best option for clear skin.
• How balanced blood sugar affects the clarity of your skin.

Quit Acne takes a research-backed and ancestral approach to nutrition and is not compatible with a vegan diet; however it can be modified for a vegetarian diet.

Why I wrote Quit Acne

I live by the motto, My life didn’t turn out as I planned, and that’s what makes it so wonderful.

I never planned to write three books on health and nutrition before I graduated college. I never planned to start Empowered Sustenance, an alternative health website that would be read by over 7 million people in its two years of existence. I never planned to become a nutritional therapist (NTP) and wake up each day with the mission to change the way the world thinks about food.

But I also never planned to be diagnosed with an autoimmune disease when I was 14. Or be told at age 18 that, to continue my life, I would need invasive surgery and a lifetime of potent medications. And, although my skin woes were a last priority after my more serious health issues, I never planned to struggle with chronic acne for nearly half of my 21 years on this earth.

I refused to believe the doctors who told me that surgery and medications were my only options for my chronic health conditions. Instead, I threw myself into researching nutrition and mind-body medicine.

By renovating my diet and lifestyle, I began a new chapter in my life without the threat of surgery or medications. With my nutrition research and dietary changes, I also opened another unexpected but very welcomed chapter—clear skin, for the first time in a decade!
