Zinc for acne
July 30th, 2009
Zinc is a mineral that can help treat and prevent acne.
The good:
- Zinc is cheap, really cheap, really really cheap! It doesn’t get any cheaper than 3-10 dollars for dozens of treatments when it comes to acne and skin care in general! This alone makes zinc very attractive to many.
- Zinc will not do miracles, but it helps most users control their acne at the very least.
- Zinc helps out acne of all kind. It will keep normal, run of the mill, pimples in check, as well as cystic acne, nodular acne, rosacea… It helps a little for a lot things. It will reduce the number of pimples you get and also make them smaller in most cases.
- Zinc is really easy to take! Can you swallow a small pill? If so, you can take zinc.
The not so good:
- Zinc is not a miracle tablet, but it is an excellent “supplement” to your acne fighting regimen. Alone by itself zinc may not be able to keep acne away, but with another strong, proven treatment it should help you out.
- You have to take zinc with food, trust me! For your own stomachs sake, do not try to take zinc without eating beforehand. You get crazy stomach pains if you don’t eat a substancial meal with your zinc tablet.
Overall zinc is really cheap, pretty effective, and comes with few drawbacks, give it a try!
