hi all,

 

im still trying to work this out myself but it seems when i take vitamins, they seem to work really well for a few weeks, then my adult acne reverts back to normal (my main problem is redness).

 

 

my main 2 vitamins i take are zinc (15mgx2) and vitamin c(200mg). i recently added cod liver (with vitamins A&D) and the results were great but didn't seem to last.

 

 

i was just wondering if other people have the same problem with vitamins? - it could be my fault as i may have done something else to trigger my acne to get worse (soap/cream or food).

 

thanks

Personally yes I would say it's probably other things contributing.

 

Too much caffeine

Too much dairy

Too many high gi foods

Too much stress trigures my acne

 

To counteract I do the following.

 

Swap coffee for Pukka Mint Green Tea & PureChimp Matcha Green Tea

Only have cheese now & then and for sure use an alternative to dairy milk

Eat brown grains instead of white (rye bread, brown rice, quinoa, oat cakes, ryvita are probably the best alternatives to the white stuff) & cut out foods that contain regular sugar

Exercise regualrly to reduce stress

 

Just doing one of these things will probably help if you dont want to put oo much effort in.
