Guest guest Posted October 23, 2003 Report Share Posted October 23, 2003 Dear Group, Can anyone explain how an herbalist might make use of the property in Shan Zhu Yu that is anti-infective, antibacterial, antifungal, antimalarial? Since it is astringent and stabilizing, would one really want to use it in case of an infection? Maybe the intention is to use it topically for skin fungus? Thanks.

Guest guest Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 David, thank you. I don't have a patient for this. It is a question that came up in my herbs class.
