We know that acne is a multifaceted condition, but some evidence suggests that taking a zinc supplement can improve acne, when compared to a placebo. For example, in a double-blind investigation of 54 patients suffering from acne, the effect of 0.6 g of oral zinc sulphate daily versus placebo was studied. During the active treatment period of 6 weeks, the acne improved by about one-third, as rated with a score system.
