5 Supplements to Help Stop Hormonal Breakouts

Spirulina

This one is a favourite of Miranda Kerr's — that's how I found out about it. Spirulina is an algae that is about 60 percent vegetable protein. Known as a super food, it detoxifies the skin and promotes a glowing complexion. I buy Hawaiian Pacifica Spirulina by Microorganics ($79.95), but different brands offer cheaper alternatives. I take the recommended six a day for maintenance.

Hi, I just found this blog. I was wondering do you take all 5 of these supplements at once, or did you take them at different times? Even though there is Zinc in the Clear Skin and Spirulina do you still take a Zinc Supplement along with them? How long were you on these supplements before you cut back. Thanks.

Hi Anon, are these supplements safe for a pregnant woman or trying to get pregnant? Thanks.

Hi Anon, glad you like. Since this post, I've also started sleeping nine hours a night. I also take vitamin C in powder form now, and the fish oil in liquid form. I used to take all these tablets at once before bed but it was getting a little exhausting! So now I just have one mouthful of fish oil (Metagenics). I'd say it's definitely worth seeing a naturopath once, to get on all the right supplements and dosages.

Hi Alison, great tips here for herbal treatment for hormonal acne, I suffer as well. I wanted to know an update, do you still take these supplements daily, is it working? Also, it seems like a lot of pills, what time of day do you take each pill? With food?
