The following article lists some simple, informative tips that will help you have a better experience with herbal remedy.
So far, we've uncovered some interesting facts about herbal remedy. You may decide that the following information is
even more interesting.
One of the more powerful forms of acne remedies is herbal remedy. For people who are averse to taking strong acne
drugs this is a very good option. The only problem with herbal remedies is that they are very slow acting and the
results can take up to a month to become visible.
Even so, herbal acne home cures are a good side effort to whatever other treatments being used. The reason why herbal
acne remedies take time is that these remedies depend on the body's capacity to metabolize fats and carbohydrates.
Herbal remedies cure acne by encouraging the elimination of acne through the lymphatic system.
There is a class of herbs called "alternative herbs". These herbs are basically used for the purpose of cleansing
body tissues. They are herbs that help the body with the detoxification process. However, they do not remove the
toxins from the body through normal elimination pathways like lungs, kidneys, or colon.
While they are not so popular in western culture, herbal acne remedies have a long history of successfully treating
acne problems and they are so harmless that you should at least give them one try. Moreover, since most herbal acne
remedies work inside the body they do not interfere with conventional topical (applied externally) acne medications.
Alternative herbs are very mild acting so there is no discomfort in their use. However, since they are mild by
nature they take a longer time and consistent use to show results. Despite this, the fact remains the results are
better and longer lasting. What is more, these herbs usually have a beneficial affect on the rest of the body.
They can even be used to treat chronic inflammatory conditions.
Some of the alternative herbs include burdock, cleavers, red clover, figwort, poke root, Echinacea, and blue flag.
Like most herbal remedies these herbal acne cures are also best when a combination of herbs is used. One
frequently used and very popular combination is Echinacea, burdock, blue flag, and yellow dock. Just mix and
prepare an infusion using hot water. Drink a cup about three times daily. If you wish to improve the flavor then
please do no add sugar, instead, use honey.
A second combination is dandelion, sarsaparilla, and burdock. Mix them up when they are dry herbs. Prepare an
infusion as before and have 3 cups a day.
A third decent combination for acne is lavender, yarrow, and elder flowers.
Besides these, herbal acne remedies are available for topical use.
Take the oil from a tea tree and apply it to the acne-affected area. This oil can be a bit strong so if you have
sensitive skin just dilute it with water. Fresh cabbage juice makes another great topical herbal cure for acne.
This is also a better choice for people with sensitive who cannot stand tea tree oil.
Calendula and chamomile can be used to make a very effective anti-inflammatory skin wash. Just prepare an infusion
with these two as before but instead of drinking it let it cool. Store it in the fridge. When required, dab it
onto affected areas.
Minerals like potassium phosphate and magnesium phosphate are also good for the skin. Zinc aids in the prevention
of scarring.
Vitamin C helps in healing acne lesions as well as acting as an anti-oxidant.
These are but a few cases of how herbal acne remedies can be of help.
As your knowledge about herbal remedy continues to grow, you will begin to see how herbal fits into the overall
scheme of things. Knowing how something relates to the rest of the world is important too.
