  • An anti-inflammatory diet full of antioxidants and essential fatty acids (flaxseeds, salmon, walnuts) can help control acne.
  • Stay away from foods that spike insulin (sugar, white flours, pastas). Select items that are low in fat and high in fiber (whole grains, fruits, vegetables).
  • Some people find that eliminating dairy products helps keep skin clear. Supplementing with probiotics is another dietary option.
  • Lactobacillus strains, such as acidophilus and bulgaricus, were found in a study to improve a majority of participants' acne.
  • Taking vitamin A can help speed skin healing, especially when it comes to acne. B-complex vitamins promote healthy circulation and may help prevent outbreaks.
