Burdock and Red Clover: Your Pimple Problems Are Over

Adults with acne can follow the same herbal advice for teenagers by using burdock root to cleanse the blood. For men or women, red clover (Trifolium pratense) taken internally has been an excellent herb for cleansing the blood and clearing up skin ailments such as acne. You can support the liver (which filters excess hormones from the blood) to get to the source of your problem. Take two to three tablets of either burdock, milk thistle, red clover, or dandelion two to three times daily to help your face clear up.
Red clover has been used for centuries as a key herbal ingredient in fighting cancer because of its effect on cleansing the blood and liver and assisting with protein assimilation.
Both men and women can take supplemental zinc, vitamins A and D, and niacin. All have proven helpful for acne. Zinc helps in skin healing of any kind, vitamins A and D feed the skin, and niacin helps flush builtup wastes from the circulatory system.
