Might consuming 8 glasses of water a day help with weight loss and acne?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: It won't touch acne. It may make you a little bit more full and you may therefore eat less. The nonsense about water helping acne derives from the prescientific notion that it "washes out poisons." your personal physician has scientific rx's that will clear acne; weight loss comes from changed lifestyle. Good luck and stay proactive.
