Clinical trials showed significant acne improvement when people eat a low-glycemic-low sugar diet with plenty of whole foods, rich in fruits and vegetables, and low in processed and refined products. Now let’s discuss an important vitamin deficiency that can be linked to acne. It’s vitamin D deficiency.
Several studies reveal significantly lower levels of Vitamin D in patients who had acne comparing to those who hadn’t. The antibacterial properties of vitamin D can be helpful against the bacteria that are causing acne. In a randomization clinical trial of 39 acne patients with vitamin D deficiency, oral supplements of vitamin D produced a significant improvement in acne inflammation. Vitamin D Can be also obtained from such foods as: Salmon Sardines Canned Tuna Yegg Yolks Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that accumulates and gets stored in the fatty tissues of the body. Meaning that self-prescription of megadose amounts in the form of vitamin D supplements can potentially be very harmful.
