Have you ever wondered if there is a relationship between vitamins and acne? Because, let's face it, wouldn't it be great if all you had to do, to develop a beautiful and flawless complexion, was swallow a few vitamin tablets.
Such a thing would be fantastic, but do vitamins really help with a Home Cure for Acne, and, more importantly can they really lead to acne free skin?
Well, first the good news, there may indeed be vitamins that could greatly help with your Home Cure for Acne, but that said, no single vitamin may be able to reduce acne by itself - there may be no such magic vitamin cure for acne.
So which vitamins should be part of a Home Cure for Acne, and, more importantly, can actually help you control your acne? Vitamin A, B-Complex vitamins, Chromium, Zinc and more, may be able to greatly help your skin,but there are a lot of other vitamins that may show no appreciable effect at all on acne.
Vitamin A: The deficiency of vitamin A may actually cause acne in some instances. For the recommended dosage, and especially if you include it in your Home Cure for Acne programme, you might want to consult a skin specialist or physician.
Vitamin B - Complex: Vitamin B-Complex helps maintain healthy skin tone and also reduces stress and anxiety. Stress can trigger acne in some people; so reducing stress should always form part of any Home Cure for Acne programme anyway, as reducing stress is a proven way to help with the reduction in acne breakouts.
The B-Complex group is made up of the following vitamins: Thiamin, Niacin, Riboflavin, Pyridoxine, Pantothenic Acid & Cyanocobalamin.
Note: High doses of some B-Complex vitamins may actually trigger acne, so if acne breakouts increase whilst you are taking B - Complex vitamins, you might want to discontinue and certainly remove them from your Home Cure for Acne programme.
Vitamin C: Vitamin C and bioflavonoid are important for tissue repair & growth, & also hundreds of other metabolic functions.
Chromium: Chromium helps reduce skin infection, and as a result is quite obviously good for acne.
Zinc: Zinc helps prevent scarring as it helps heal the tissues, and as Zinc also regulates the activity of the oil glands, therefore possibly helping with the reduction of acne breakouts, it should also form part of your Home Cure for Acne programme.
Vitamins do help heal acne, but always ensure you consult your Doctor before use to make sure you only use the recommended dosages.
