Once acne unfolds, our bodies go through enormous effort to counteract its effects, depleting nutrients at a faster rate than normal. This becomes a vicious cycle that only worsens if left unmanaged. Here are a few vitamin supplements that you can take to refuel your body with essential nutrients.
As our bodies become depleted of nutrients over time, it can take a while for supplements to begin working at their optimum level. Take these supplements for a minimum of six months to reestablish normal vitamin and mineral levels in the body.
Niacinimide: deficiencies of niacinamide have been related to incidences of acne. This B vitamin aids in blood circulation and tissue oxygenation and regeneration.
Antioxidants: aside from natural vitamin antioxidants such as vitamin A and E, other supplements such as grape seed extract have an extraordinary effect on how the body processes free radicals.
Chromium Picolinate: helps control bacterial activity and reduces infections within follicles.
Vitamin D3: aids the body in tissue repair and regeneration.
L-Cysteine: this supplement contains sulfur, an antiseptic and vital element for smooth, resilient skin. Make sure to take this supplement on an empty stomach with water or juice ONLY.
Selenium: promotes elasticity of the skin, also a powerful antioxidant.
Retin-A: this supplement must be prescribed by a doctor. It acts as a peel to remove dead skin cells and encourage tissue repair/renewal. It must be taken for over six months for noticeable results.
Lecithin: necessary for the proper absorption and assimilation of fatty acids.
Proteolytic Enzymes: like acidophilus, these act by maintaining better colonic function. The enzymes digest colonic waste, enhancing nutrient absorption and improving the body's waste management.
Garlic: garlic is known to be a powerful antiseptic. It inhibits bacterial activity while also strengthening the immune system.
