Can vitamins cause acne ?

Question

I'm concerned with a breakout of acne on my face in one area that won't go away. I take 500 mgs of vitamin c and a multivitamin every morning, could that be the cause ?

I've been using some nutrogena acne wipes, and the acne clears up for a day or two, then it comes back.

At first I thought it was my razor, so I bought a new razor and changed my shaving cream, but that didn't help.

Have any of you ever had this problem, and if so, what should I do ?

Answer 1

Acne is caused by the staph bacteria. It has nothing to do with what you use or don't use for vitamins or face wash. THe staph bacteria is the cause. If you acne is really bothersome then see your doc and start antibiotic therapy to get it under control. If it is mild just continue with the acne products and keep your hands away from your face.

Sometimes vitamin A or beta carotine in a multiple vitamin can cause people to have breakouts. Stop the vitamins for a couple of weeks, but continue using the vitamin C.. And see if there is a difference. If not I recommend you see a dermatologist.

Answer 4

Vitamins in excess can cause acne, but it may come from your diet or a chemical imbalance inside of you. It's very common for younger people to have breakouts. It's ideal to see a skin doctor about the situation. They can get to the bottom of all this.

Answer 5

VITAMINS do not cause acne. Eating chocolate does not cause acne.

Dirt that clogs your pores causes acne. Bacteria causes acne. What you need is a GENTLE regimin of cleansing your face morning and night, and using a moisturizer to keep your skin from drying out. Dry skin reacts by producing MORE oil, and if your pores are clogged, that oil builds up and can cause acne.

Acne is caused by bad bacteria that live in the intestines and throw off toxins, from bad digestion of your food due to organs that are responsible for digestion not working correctly, bad oils that inhibit the body's natural ability to kill germs, and bad hygiene. Many vitamins create nutrient deficiencies in the body due to the way they are made and the sources from which they are made. A very good example is Ascorbic Acid. This is not Vitamin C. It is a part of a complex of nutrients that can make up the real vitamin C. This is a chemical that is either manufactured in a lab or extracted and isolated from beet sugar, for example. When you ingest this, your body is scavenged to find the cofactors that are missing in this product to complete the complex so it can be digested and used as the natural complete vitamin C. This depletes your body of many nutrients. Additionally, the acidic action of this causes calcium to be depleted in your body. Ascorbic Acid, alone, is a "chemical activator." Ascorbic Acid, by itself won't even cure scurvy. Thiamine, or vitamin B-1, is another good example. Labels do not typically tell you that synthetic vitamins, or more accurately labeled, chemical activators, comes from Coal Tar. A non living substance that has no real nutritional value, but does, for a short period of time, create a reaction that is similar to what the real vitamin complex does. For a short time, they create reactions, and then they damage the DNA and actually shorten your life. Statistically, multivitamins shorten your life by approximately 5%. It has been shown that people who don't take the synthetic multivitamins live longer than those that do. When you are nutrient deficient, you will get sick. Pimples are just a part of the whole picture. Preservatives in food, insecticides, food grown on chemically treated soils, antibiotics kill ALL bacteria including the friendly flora in your intestines that protect you from getting acne by killing the bad bacteria, biofilms created due to badly digested foods, etc. all contribute to the acne problem. ALL pill forms of vitamins contain many substances that contribute to bad health. Magnesium Stearate is a good example. This is a TRANS FAT that inhibits nutrient absorption by up to 80% and is also an immune suppressant that inhibits your immune system from doing it's job! Look on the label of anything that is in pill form. Most of the time they label it. They put over 5% of the total milligrams listed on the bottle of this garbage in each pill. In 1,000 milligram tablet, that is 50 milligrams of TRANS FATS! Do you actually believe that is in there for your health? Not. Trans fats cause your body to not process fats correctly and this can cause pimples! Vegetable oils like soybean, canola, cottonseed, and corn should be avoided at all costs because they cause massive free-radical production: margarine, shortening, and polyunsaturated cooking and salad oils such as safflower, sunflower, corn, cottonseed, soy, canola, and others. These free radicals create many toxins that cause pimples and many degenerative diseases. To prevent acne, you need to make sure your digestive system is working at it's peak performance and avoid the oils listed above, eat lots of olive oil and garlic. good luck
