Fish Oil Fast Fact #85: The Acne Cure Your Dermatologist is Not Telling You

If you suffer from acne, it may actually be a manifestation of a nutritional deficiency rather than a dermatological disorder. Some preliminary studies indicate that in many cases, adult acne in particular is caused by a shortage of omega 3 fatty acids, an essential nutrient that next to no one gets enough of in their natural diet.

While in some cases, this shortage manifests itself in a lack of focus, heart problems or achy joints, it appears to also make itself known in the form of severe adult acne. However, since these studies have not been deemed conclusive, most dermatologists are not aware of the potential of this vitally important compound found in fish oil. However, you should be aware that starting a fish oil supplement today could potentially lead to clearer skin in just a few short days.
