Herbal Remedies for Jaundice

Jaundice is a yellowing of the skin and whites of the eyes by the bile pigment bilirubin. It often accompanies and is a symptom of liver diseases such as infectious hepatitis. The urine can also turn dark yellow or even orange, and the feces can become light clay-colored.

An herbal program can include liver cooling and cleansing herbs and liver protectors.
