This is my own, personal experience with using a herbal homeopathic remedy. I am not a doctor or a medical professional. The below describes what has worked for me. Before delving into the world of herbal homeopathy, please consult your doctor!

Since I was a junior in high school, It seemed that every Winter, I would inevitably begin coughing. This cough would often become a mild upper respiratory infection. Over-the-counter drugs would offer some relief from the symptoms, but those always left me feeling groggy. Visits to the doctor always resulted in a prescription for anti-biotics.

Often, visits to the doctor would leave me frustrated because I wanted relief from the coughing. Doctors would always give me an expectorant - something that induced more coughing. Fed up with the never-ending cycle, I decided to research other remedies that would offer some relief.

Characterized by overly-productive oil glands, acne is an inflammatory condition of the skin. Acne may not be considered a serious health issue, at least for most people, but that doesn't mean you can't address it with the best that herbal medicine has to offer.

Does What You Eat Affect Acne?

Currently, there is little scientific evidence that any food or food group affects acne either positively or negatively. This directly contradicts the experiences of millions of acne sufferers who believe that foods like milk, fat and chocolate directly contribute to breakouts. The reason for the discrepancy isn't fully understood but some researchers have suggested that undiagnosed food allergies may be at least partly to blame.
