Clear5 Reviews
Clear5 is an oral acne supplement that is meant to attack the instigators of breakouts from inside the body. The theory around oral acne supplements is that the cleaner and more detoxified the internal self is the clearer your skin will be. This product uses the ingredient pantothenic acid and claim that this compound is the necessary element that can eradicate acne issues for good.
Benefits
We aren’t overly convinced of this idea, at least not as the only means of fighting acne, as acne is cause by increased production of the protective oil sebum found in pores near hair follicles. When sebum is overproduced the hair follicles become engorged caused increased redness and eventually acne. Therefore we have a hard time believing that a simple supplement, which we be distributed evenly throughout the body, will offer many benefits for the skin. Furthermore, pantothenic acid, the only listed ingredient, is found in a large range of commonly ingested foods such as whole grains, legumes, eggs and even meats. This doesn’t strike us as a vitamin or mineral that many will be lacking in.
Possible Side Effects
We cannot find any potential harm in this product. It should also be noted that its lack of side effects seems to include the side effect of reducing the appearance of acne.
Conclusion
The only vitamin deficiency that has been reported to cause increased breakouts is a lack of zinc. If you can find a product that includes an increased amount of zinc in its formulation then it may be worth attempting. Since all Clear5 seems to offer is a widely available ingredient that no one who isn’t starving has plenty of we do not recommend this product.
