So I've been pretty pleased so far with what my dietary changes have done, (Cut out Gluten, Dairy and Sugar) for my Acne. No huge pustules for a few months now. MY skin is 10 times better than what it was, but now I wanna really try and tie up any loose ends with it.

I've been taking D3 and Omega 3 since I started, but from some Googling, I've found many people also having success with Zinc, Magnesium and Calcium supplements. I've bought some myself and have been taking them for the last 2 day. Zinc (with copper and Vit C) in the morning an hour after breakfast. Omega 3 after lunch. Calcium, Magnesium and D3 supplement after my evening meal. I'm hoping to have some success with this also.

Anyone have any thoughts or experiences ?

I take Magnesium, Vitamin D3 and Zinc along with Vitamin A, C, E and Apple Cider Vinegar capsules. This concoction has helped with my skin a lot. Not too sure about the magnesium because thats one of the newer supplements I added and it doesn't seem to make a difference. The newest addition is Apple Cider Vinegar capsules. Not too sure how well these are working but from what I've read, it seems to be very beneficial for acne so I figured why not try it. I believe that Vitamin A, C, E and Zinc are the most beneficial out of the mix that I take. It's hard to pinpoint what is working and what's not while taking so many.

I ended up changed to a lower form of zinc (Vit C with 15mg Zinc) and cut out the Mg and Ca, as my cheeks got hella greasy and i broke out there whilst taking them. The Zinc did contain a copper supplement too, so it might have been that, that gave me the reaction.

I may experiment with the Mg and Ca again in the next couple of weeks.

I also bought a weights bench and started some (quite moderate) benching. I really want to be able to work out, but I'm praying it's not whats breaking me out.

I bought some Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar, Vit A and B5supps a few weeks back, but they're currently just sitting on theshelf. I don't wanna try too much at once because then it's hard to know whats doing what then.

I heard you have to take calcium/magnesium separate from other vitamins for better results
try adding tiny pinch of cinnamon to ACV water
