Zinc is an essential trace element for humans and there is evidence that it is similar to antibiotics in improving the condition of inflamed acne. Zinc speeds up the process of wound healing, and can help prevent scars. It helps the body process the essential fatty acids that the skin uses for healing. Zinc deficiencies have been linked to a poor immune system. The effective dosage is not clear, however most studies indicate 50-100mg. Make sure to take it after eating, Zinc can cause an upset stomach.
