of acne varies significantly
between different
populations and is substantially lower in non-Westernized
populations that follow traditional diets, 45 a common factor among these traditional diets being a low glycaemic load.46 Various studies have provided evidence that high - glycaemic - load diets are implicated in the aetiology
of acne through their capacity to stimulate insulin, androgen bioavailability and insulin - like
growth factor - 1 (IGF - 1) activity, whereas the beneficial effects
of low - glycaemic - load diets, apart from weight and blood glucose levels, also include improved skin quality.44 The clinical and experimental evidence does in fact suggest ways in which insulin can increase androgen production and affect via induction
of steroidogenic enzymes, 47 the secretion by the pituitary gland
of gonadotropin - releasing hormone and the production
