Re-evaluating everything as I realized there are other factors (i.e. diet, sleep, stress, exercise, etc) which I need to consider. I'm 33 and do all but not well. For my diet, I removed caffeinated soda (only drank at work), dairy, peanut butter, white food (bread, rice, pasta), alcohol, frozen dinners, and chips. I increased my consumption of water (didnt drink enough) and started eating more vegetables, fruits, and freshly cooked lean chicken. I replaced peanut butter with almond butter and replaced dairy milk with almond milk. I can't tell the difference for both. I still have cereal and coffee in the morning, but accompany fruits with it.. Also, I decided to go prescription free and use Glytone Mild Gel wash as my only means of cleaning my face. Its been almost 2 weeks and skin is looking clearer.

Great that you have found something working for you. You can add salmon, sweet potatoes,beets and dandelion greens as part of ur diet as anti-acne foods. Vegetable juice/yoga should also help and you might not require zinc supplement in the long run.

Thanks. Will introduce sweet potatoes into my routine. Reason why I'm going with the zinc supplement is I don't like fish
