Selenium for Acne

Selenium Jar

Selenium is an antioxidant that is one of the 32 nutrients considered essential for our health. Taken alone, selenium isn’t likely to cure acne. As an acne treatment, selenium needs to work synergistically with Zinc and vitamin E. Here’s how selenium helps treat acne

Selenium in Food

In the United States, selenium deficiency is rare, but being a vegan or vegetarian increases the risk. If you don’t eat Brazil nuts, eggs, and fish, and drink alcohol more than moderately, deficiency is much more likely.

Signs of Selenium Deficiency

Your acne could particularly benefit from selenium if you live in a place where oxidative stress on your skin is high, such as exposure to higher levels of air pollution, strong sun and smoke from cigarettes. Symptoms of a moderate selenium deficiency include:

  • Brain fog
  • Weak skin and hair
  • Poor fertility
  • Hypothyroidism
  • Discoloured fingernails
  • Acne

Selenium Supplements for Acne

Selenium can provide a modest boost to a holistic acne regimen that includes treating the skin topically with the proper regimen in addition to herbs and supplements. When selenium is taken in combination with other vitamins and herbs for acne, it just might be the missing link you need. We recommend Clove Hill Skin Clarity. The Clove Hill products are all formulated with acne-prone skin in mind and are guaranteed to not cause breakouts.  They are also free of any fillers.
