Vitamin E

• Foods that are high in vitamin E have long been known to be great for the skin. Foods that are particularly high in this vitamin include beans, citrus fruits and green leafy vegetables like kale and spinach. As a part of a well-balanced diet, vitamin E can help reduce the look of acne scars faster and leave your skin tone more even.
  
  

Vitamin A

• Another vitamin that your diet should be rich in is vitamin A. This vitamin can be found in foods like carrots and lean meats. However, you may find that you need to supplement your intake with a daily vitamin to keep your skin looking radiant and your acne scars minimized.
  
  

Vitamin C

• To keep your skin acne-free, you should also make an effort to get plenty of vitamin C. This comes most readily in the form of citrus fruits. This vitamin helps the skin renew itself at a much faster rate and encourages current blemishes to heal. Zinc is another option for keeping the skin clear and smooth.
  
  

Grains

• Eating plenty of grains, unless you have a gluten allergy or sensitivity, can also help the skin heal and reduce the look of acne scars. Examples of foods that help accomplish this aim include rice, oatmeal and brown grains. As always, these foods should be eaten as a part of a balanced diet.
  
  

Brightly Colored Foods

• Foods that are brightly colored are also beneficial for treating acne scars. Any bright food will do, but those with yellow or orange hues are especially helpful. Examples include pumpkin, cantaloupe, bell peppers and carrots. By adding these foods to your diet, you encourage the skin to regenerate faster, thus sloughing off dead and damaged cells and revealing the healthier, smoother ones underneath.
