I would suggest you try a low-carb (and zero sugar) diet combined with a Zinc supplement, and even a 5,000 IU Vitamin D3 with 100 mcg Vitamin K2 (MK-7) and 200-400mg of Magnesium glycinate daily (high D3 depletes Magnesium) for six months.
It would help if you took a blood test to find out your HbA1C, blood glucose, and 25-OHD levels, just to know where you're at before you start that. Then retake the blood test.
If I'm right with my assumption, your problems are a lot worse than just getting acne, so you will solve a lot of other issues you may already have or are about to have if you follow those recommendations.

- s9w 8y agoSome people here really seems to not like (and flag) anything related to diet. That's unfortunate. I did not know the linked studies!
- ahendy 8y agoI think the point is that any diet related comment should probably be prefaced with: speak to a doctor, dietician; have a blood test done to test levels. From what I recall, zinc, magnesium and vitamin D could all reach sufficient levels just from diet, and, having too much of any of these can have bad results. Therefore someone who simply follows every and any diet suggestion on forums could possibly be at risk - despite a goodhearted, scientifically founded suggestion.
