What is the holistic method for treating acne?

DIET AND DIETARY SUPPLEMENTS:

Avoid fried foods, butter, cheeses, whole milk, ice cream, rich salad dressings, chocolate, fatty meats, anything from cocoa or coffee beans, other stimulants, sweets and processed nut products.

Include fresh fruits, plenty of water, fresh and cooked vegetables, lean meats, broiled fish, chicken, whole-grain cereals and other complex carbohydrates. The diet should allow regular bowl movements.

Foods containing bromides, iodine and caffeine stimulate the endocrine system, which in turn increases the amount of oil produced by the sebaceous gland.
Vitamin A and Zinc supplements can be helpful, but use only proper dosage as recommended on the bottle.
