Abstract
- The authors aim to present the butterfly effect, a concept based on the theory that small changes might have a powerful effect, as an example of the important connection between diet and acne. Western diet is currently a well‐known environmental factor which, mainly via the overstimulation of mTORC1 (mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1), is responsible for the development and aggravation of acne and other age‐related diseases of civilization. From the authors' point of view, "the butterfly effect" extrapolated to acne and diet depicts the importance of dietary interventions in acne so as to prevent more serious mTORC1‐driven diseases of civilization like obesity, diabetes, and cancer.
