What vitamins can be used to treat acne?



Due to the incredibly unhealthy diets that have become the norm in modern

day America, it is no wonder that vitamin deficiencies are so rampant.

Only about 10-20% of Americans consume the recommended amount of the

important vitamins and minerals on a daily basis. This vitamin deficiency

has led to many problems in the bodies of Americans, and obviously the

skin, the largest organ of the body, is affected by this deficiency as

well.



There are many vitamins that can all contribute to fighting and

preventing the formation of acne on the skin. Different vitamins have

different uses ranging from antioxidants (clearing the skin of harmful

toxins) to antibacterial (fighting bacteria which can cause acne, helping

to prevent it from forming) and more. This article will help to point out

and explain which vitamins can be used to help against acne and what it

is that they do.



The main vitamins that help to combat acne are Vitamin A, the B Vitamins,

Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Chromium and Zinc. Each of these vitamins helps to

fight acne in a different way and when used in conjunction they can help

greatly to reduce the affects of acne and even prevent its breakout

altogether. If you decide to use these vitamins, most likely through form

of supplements since trying to consume the right amounts through dieting

can be difficult, it is extremely important to follow the dosage

instructions and to never take too much of any vitamin. Taking too much

of many vitamins can be toxic and can lead to illness and worse problems,

so always be careful and patient.



Vitamins A and E are strong antioxidants and help to promote healthy

skin. Zinc is also an antioxidant but more importantly it helps to

regulate the production of oil in the oil glands. Chromium aids in

reducing the infections in the skin which can prevent acne from

spreading. The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are more like super-

vitamins. Both of these have countless functions in maintaining a healthy

body and involving these in your daily diet is only too important.



The main reason that each of these vitamins is so important is not only

their assistance to fighting and preventing acne but also the simple fact

that a deficiency in any single one of these vitamins can lead to acne

breakouts. Because of this, the importance of consuming the correct

amounts of these vitamins every day through either diet, which can be

very difficult, or in supplement form is simply undeniable. By being

knowledgeable of these vitamins and by attempting to meet the recommended

amounts each day, a person can combat acne much more effectively and help

to prevent it from occurring altogether.
