Natural treatments for acne

Monday, August 9, 2010

Question:

I would like to know what supplements you might recommend for my 16-year-old son who has acne. Is there an all-in-one supplement that would be better than say a couple of different ones?

Answer:

There is a good supplement which has a combination of vitamins that are useful in managing acne. You need a combination of vitamins A, C, E and zinc. Your health food shop should be able to advise you on a good brand.

It is really important for an acne sufferer to eat a healthy diet with lots of fresh fruit and vegetables and stay away from junk food, especially fried food and sugar.
