This post talks about zinc and its effect on rosacea.
It discusses what zinc is, how it can help rosacea and how by supplementing your diet with zinc you can help reduce the severity of your rosacea.
What Is Zinc?
Zinc is a mineral which is very important to your health.
Good dietary sources of zinc are:
- Brewer’s Yeast
- Cheese
- Eggs
- Pulses
- Red Meat
- Seafood
- Whole Grains
Zinc is important to your immunity and growth, plus it aids good wound healing and protects you from infections.
Beating Rosacea With Zinc
Double-blind studies have shown that zinc can help reduce the severity of rosacea.
In fact, the results from these double-blind trials showed that zinc can reduce the severity of rosacea by up to 75%.
I don’t feel that you can call zinc a rosacea cure, but it is definitely one weapon you can use in beating rosacea.
What Daily Dose of Zinc Do You Need To Beat Rosacea?
In the fore mentioned double-blind studies, a dose of 23 mg of zinc was taken three times a day for three months.
Taking this dose needs to be done under the supervision of a medical practitioner and you will also need to take copper supplements to avoid zinc-induced copper deficiency.
The normal daily dose of zinc is between 15 mg and 50 mg per day.
So, to sum up zinc and its relationship with rosacea…
Zinc is very important mineral to your health.
Double-blind studies have shown that zinc can help reduce the severity of your rosacea.
