What are some home remedies to cure acne?
January 8th, 2010 | 
Author: I've been reading up on home remedies to help get rid of acne, but everything I find suggests using ingredients I've never heard of...rose water, cinnamon powder, etc.
Are there any home remedies for acne that only involve everyday household items? Thanks 
Well, if you've never heard of cinnamon I'm not sure what you consider everyday household items. However, what you eat has an influence on your acne. Stay away from food with a lot of sugar, saturated fats, alcohol, coffee, chocolate, fried foods, nuts, milk and milk products, and oil based cosmetics for a start.
With all that, what can you eat? Lots of fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables, ocean fish like tuna or salmon, tofu, pumpkin seeds, chick peas, beets, sprouts, fresh mint, fresh basil, and fresh parsley.
There are also herbal tinctures that a naturopathic physician or an herbalist can give to you to help balance your hormones and purify your body.
You can also take Vitamin A [50,000 IU a day for three days] and Zinc [45 mg a day].
