Shrubmed does not advocate any particular therapy for acne . These pages are designed to provide pointers to the research. Each person is a unique case, and decisions related to health should be made in conjuction with health professionals.
The fact that an herb is listed here only indicates that it occurs in the same research as acne . An examination of the research may show that it helps treat acne , it causes or aggravates acne or has no effect on the condition.
This is the 1.0 version of Shrubmed (February, 2008). It is very much a work in progress, but will continue to improve.
