Do you think i should take a fish oil supplement to help my acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If it's really acne, it will respond to mainstream scientific rx. Your physician can handle it easily. The studies on fish oil are turning up some benefits in inflammatory disease, little for lipids / vascular disease.
