Is Amaranth a skin disease killer?

There is no skin disease nemesis is amaranth claims, but amaranth can be used to treat certain skin diseases, such as carbuncle furuncle (mostly occurs in the limbs or facial sores, the shape of a small root deep, such as nails like hard), eczema, dengue (acute infection disease, visible skin red like paint) and so on. The medicinal source of Amaranthus is the dried above-ground part of the plant Amaranthaceae, which is sour in taste and cold in nature; it belongs to the liver and large intestine meridians, and has the efficacy of clearing heat and removing toxins (removing heat and poisonous evils from the body), cooling the blood and stopping hemorrhage (cooling the blood and moistening it, preventing hemorrhage), and stopping dysentery. It can also be used in the treatment of blood in stool, hemorrhoidal blood, blood leakage (excessive menstrual flow or more than a few drops of blood) and blood dysentery (dysentery caused by feeling heat and poison and seeing blood in the stool). Do not use if there is deficiency and coldness in the spleen and stomach (spleen and stomach are weak and cold), or if the intestines are slippery and make leakage. Adverse effects are not known. When used in the treatment of the above skin diseases, Amaranthus can also be used externally by pounding the affected area in appropriate amounts, but the specific use should be carried out under the guidance of the physician’s diagnosis. People with skin diseases should not blindly use Amaranth.
