While I will strongly agree that zinc supplements can help the skin heal faster (and therefore having a clearing effect on acne) I should warn that this isn't a cure. Getting high levels of the right skin healing nutrients definitely is important, but something is still triggering the acne itself.
In my experience if acne is coming out on your skin it's because it needs to come out. Something is happening in the body. Zinc helped me too for sure but over time, the acne still popped up again and again. You've got to aid healing while searching for the triggers themselves.
Hello. Did anyone try combining Zinc supplement with Panthotenic Acid (b5)? I'm currently taking about 3000 g / day Evening Primrose Oil, which seems to help with any hormone disequilibrium but acne. So I'm starting to think that what actually causes my acne is the tremendous sugar intake that I stuff myself with everyday. Thinking Chromium too (I get nervous insecure and can't properly think without ingesting sugar, not even sure if it's a physical addiction or just placebo at this point but I've been doing it for years so..)
Not sure what to do and which would be the right proportion.
Reviews convinced me that Zinc has high chances to work so I'll give this a ry first and maybe add up the others. Any advice coming from you guys would be invaluable.
currently dealing with moderate/severe acne, I constantly seem to have some cysts and nodules showing up everytime I stray from my vegan/ non-processed/ etc diet. I still drink tons of hot chocolate and some coffee. But that's another story.
Would really love to know about the zinc - b5 combo. and cromium too.

great post. i have been taking zinc for a while and will start taking brewers yeast everyday because of its high amount of chromium. thanks man
Brewers yeast works. I got some supplements from Russia that were ok but I recommend the grey bottle from gnc they work man I no longer get inflamed cystic acne, it heals your skin quicker. The one in gnc says to take 12-16 per day I only take 9 and have seen good results.

I had pretty bad severe acne I took chromium, zinc and magnesium and reduced it significantly. When I started taking brewers yeast I noticed it has double the effect of regular chromium supplements and zinc. I still break out but nothing compared to how it was, I saw results within one week.
i take 30 mg zinc a day. it decreased my acne by 50%. i am 100% clear by eliminating carbs from my diet. anyway. when i took 45mg i was also completely clear instead of only just 50% problem it caused me depression and lack of appetite. i got my friend to try zinc 50mg and now he is 60% clear. before he had so much acne and was considering taking accutane. the bottom line is you should try zinc chelated. that is what worked for me. but if you want to get rid of all your acne, i recomend cutting carbs out of your diet.
