Scientific research has well demonstrated that people suffering from acne often lack the necessary amounts of zinc for good skin health. When taken in correctly, zinc is capable of regulating the sebaceous glands’ oil output and bring back the quantity of oil that accumulates in the skin to normal levels. As you may be aware, oily and blocked skin pores as well as hormonal imbalances are the principal causes of acne. If you combine zinc intake with required amounts of essential fatty acids then this can further help to regulate hormonal activity and ameliorate acne symptoms.
But don’t go buying zinc supplements just yet. Certain types of foods are rich in this mineral and will serve as good home remedies for acne. Cereals, wheat germs, peanuts, tahini and cocoa all have high levels of zinc. Should you choose to go for zinc supplements be aware that this mineral can become toxic if taken in too great amounts.
