Herbs for adolescents

As a teenager, you may be more interested in herbal remedies when we tell you that they may help in clearing up acne. When your hormone levels start to peak, sebum (oil) production increases, providing ample food for bacteria. When bacteria replicate in your glands, the result is the swelling, redness, and pus of pimples. You may want to try dietary modifications. A diet with lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, grains, legumes, fish, nuts, seeds, and not very many sugary foods, sodas, candy bars, or fried foods always provides some relief. You may also want to try the following herbs, and always follow the directions on the product.

Vitex (Vitex aguns-castus)

Red clover (Trifolium pratense)

Burdock root and seed (Arctium lappa)

Oregon grape root (Mahonia aquifolium)

Yellow dock (Rumex crispus)

Dandelion root (Taraxacum ofsicinale)
