New Research Concerning Fish Oil for Skin Conditions like Acne

There are a number of different factors that cause acne.  One of them is inflammation.  In a recent study researchers looked at the benefit of antioxidant nutrients and omega3 fatty acids.

Other researchers have looked at essential fatty acids from fish oil for skin conditions, but to my knowledge, this is the first one that focused on acne.  I was happy to see that the results were positive and researchers suggested controlled clinical trials, because as a natural anti-inflammatory and a natural anti-depressant, increased omega3 intake can be highly beneficial for teenagers with acne.  

Just remember to only buy omega3s that are tested for purity.  Contamination is a major concern.
