Evidence of increased numbers of certain microbes, such as Demodex mites, on rosacea faces. The condition may also be linked to bacteria such as Bacillus oleronius or a certain strain of Staphyllococus bacteria

Rosacea: Other recommendations (not medical advice)
- find triggers and omit until gut strong again
- immuno modulators in the gut like adaptogenic mushrooms
- gi map testing to understand pathogenesis
- anti pathogenic herbs for control population
- bone broth/colostrum
