acne remedy?

has anyone else tried this, i was looking and found this post and this dude said this is what you take and it will clear it up for good, he used to work at a health board company or something like that

Take this daily

Niacin-vitamin B3 (the FULL flush type--must be this type-you'll get used to it) 500 milligrams-once in the morning, once at night

Chromium Picolinate-200 micrograms-once in the morning, once at night (US govt owns patent on this-interesting huh?)

Zinc Picolinate-50 milligrams ONCE a day

Flax Seed Oil Softgels-1000 milligrams-one a day (make sure the one you buy does not use hexane to process their oil)

Use this for two weeks and thank me very much-do this for a month and say HOLY CROP! After two weeks, cut the niacin dosage to once a day.

How long after ingesting vitamins should you drink coffee/alcohol?

Is it only certain vitamins that are stripped of their value due to coffee? Right now I take Omega-3 (fish and flax), Biotin, Calcium, Zinc, Magnesium, A multivitamin, Omega-3 for my tear production, Lysine, and a Potassium supplement.

I also eat really well but I'm afraid that when I combine Broccoli or Salmon with a cup of Joe I'm missing out.
