Acne and Vitamin Supplements
However, of all the many acne questions that science is yet to find answers to, the most controversial is whether or not diet has an effect on acne.Historically, diet was thought to be linked to acne. Doctors and housewives alike believed that a high fat content in ones diet would cause an oilier complexion, and this in turn would create acne breakouts.However, as time went on,

Since acne is caused by a bacterial growth in sebum trapped in clogged pores, there is no such thing as "extra oil secretion". So, for at least the last 15 years, western medicine has claimed there is no connection between diet and acne.However, a study conducted in 1997 has rekindled the flame in the "diet causes acne" argument, and this time, with a bit more heat.This study,

The reason is, Coenzyme A is probably the single most needed enzyme in the body. This Coenzyme-A is what synthesizes ###### hormones,
