I have developed acne and pimples on my jawline and chin, I eat balanced diet, I wake up early and exercise for an hour. Also I am suffering from irregular periods which adds further to this problem, I have tried various home remedies to cure but nothing seems to work, I have lost confidence as my face's skin seems uneven rough. I have even consulted a dermatologist but the prescription looked so heavy that I avoided it, can you help me out for maintaining clear and healthy skin?

Your skin and your period both are in sync with each other, the problem of one is causing a disturbance in other. I can understand that you are making efforts for healthy and glowing skin but let us have an addition in your daily routine. By following a natural plant-based diet, the toxins accumulated in your body causing an imbalance in your hormones can be treated.

Including food which will help in treating your problem:

  • Having warm water in the morning with cinnamon powder will help in increasing insulin sensitivity, this will make your periods regular.
  • Methi seeds powder again helps us in increasing insulin sensitivity.
  • Ginger again is a superfood which helps in regularizing periods.

You can also use some homemade face packs:

1. Apply gram flour, turmeric rose water mixture on alternate days which will help in reducing the inflammation of acne.

2. Beetroot enhances in bringing the glow back as well as chia seeds help in closing the pores. Applying it twice a week will be helpful.

Inclusion of food like oranges, lemon and berries will help in achieving good skin, Read Vitamin For more information.

Thank you

Pimple or Acne is an adolescent common condition that is characterized by blackheads, pustules, papules which are caused by an increase in hormones called androgens which are characterized by the sebaceous glands by increasing the size and oil secretions.

At times these glands get blocked and then blackheads and whiteheads develop and get infected by bacteria that cause inflammation and pimples.

This acne appears on the face, back, shoulders and chest. The conditions may be lying deep inside or superficial which could cause scarring. These have a family tendency as well.

Diet:

  • Consume high proteins, low carbohydrates, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, sprouts, etc
  • Avoid fried food items, junk foods, butter, sugared drinks, citrus fruits, and citrus juices, caffeine, etc
  • If you have access to a registered Naturopath or Naturopathy Centre it is a wise idea to try fasting therapy using non-citric juices.
  • Drink lots of water at least on a daily basis. Drinking water is the best medicine according to Naturopathy

Hydrotherapy:

Alternate compress hot and cold could be applied to the affected areas.

Other measures:

  • Manage stress - Undertake some leisure activities, yoga, deep breathing techniques, and pranayama.
  • Avoid chemical-based face creams, soaps which could aggravate the problem.
  • Wash the face with warm water so that it could reduce pain in the inflamed area.
  • Avoid meddling with the pimples or wounds as it could hamper healing.
  • Try to have enough sleep for at least 6- 7 hours.
  • Avoid alcohol or smoking
  • Avoid facial treatment when the face is affected and when wounds are present.

Once healed some aloe vera gel ( taken from fresh leaves ) could prevent and also bring the smoothness of skin back.

Finally to get expert advice get yourself checked with a registered Naturopath for further consultations

Hi,

It's wonderful that you are following a healthy lifestyle. It is important to understand the body has 5 major eliminatory organs through which it throws out its waste materials. Skin is one of them. When there is an imbalance in the body and the ph. of the blood alters it interferes with the functioning of the body. Wrong sleep habits, stress, medication, hormonal imbalance or wrong food habits could interfere with this. Lets briefly understand the working of the body in this context.

Acne sets off because of the amount of change in the sex hormones in the blood. There is an increase in the production of testosterone. When there is an increase in the production in the blood it also increases the production of sebum in the skin. Bacteria lives everywhere on our skin and where is an increase in sebum, they have a lot more food to feed on. This results in bacteria multiplying in numbers and the body in response to this produces little pictures in response to this. When we observe this on our skin our immediate reaction is we must clean and scrub our skin more often. But, this harms rather than benefiting us. The reason is our body produces an acid layer so that the bacteria cannot enter our body, but when we scrub our skin the acid layer is washed off and the bacteria gain entry into our body. It is actually the function of our liver to change the structure of the sex hormones and remove them in the fecal matter after they have done their job, but if the liver is too overwhelmed either due to toxic overload which happens either due to wrong food choices, medications, pollution, etc, then the sex hormones would not be changed efficiently or quickly enough to be removed from our body. They then stay for a longer time in the blood and then it provides more food for the bacteria to feed on. This continues in a vicious cycle.

  • Include plenty of raw fruits and raw vegetables in your diet. These contain essential nutrients which are important components of many hormones and many body functions. They are also alkaline in nature which your body requires to maintain its ph.
  • Make sure you consume fruits for breakfast since the body is in the elimination phase and you would help your body.
  • Make sure you sleep well. Your body recovers and repairs during this time.
  • Avoid all animal foods including dairy. They are acidic for the body and create a load on the system.
  • Avoid all packed, processed, sugary and fried foods. All of them are high in sugar, oil and coloring agents. These all create a hormonal imbalance and are difficult to digest. They are also empty calories, provide no nutrition for the body. They are all acidic foods.
  • Expose to sunshine in the morning hours. This is a natural doctor. Any bacteria on the skin would also get removed.
  • Make sure you clear your bowels every day.
  • Do not use any artificial creams, chemicals, etc on your skin. Allow your skin to breathe.
  • Make sure you are hydrated at the cellular level. Chewing on to raw fruits, coconut water, vegetables, greens, etc would help you ensure that. Chewing your food slowly and also slowly sipping fluids is important rather than gulping down.

Short term measures

  • Consuming vegetable juices
  • Applying a pack of neem or tulsi leaves
  • Regular bowel movement
  • Avoid the use of any cosmetics or chemicals on the skin.

Wishing You Good Health Always!

Thank you

Regards

I must appreciate your courage to come to the natural way to heal. This is the way to permanently clean your body.

It's good that you have an hour of exercise regime in your lifestyle. Please continue, When it comes to a "balanced diet" its more from your perspective of what's healthy which could potentially not be healthy from our perspective.

Clear and healthy skin is a reflection of your inside health. If the inside is unclean, then the skin will be forced to eliminate that. Pimples are a reflection of your body's internal health.

Irregular periods are again excess toxin accumulation in your reproductive organs, imbalance of hormones due to consumption of excess animal products on a daily basis, etc.

Feed the body the food it's designed to eat, such as fruits vegetables and greens in abundance it will reflect back on your face. It is also extremely important that you switch to whole food plant-based lifestyle which does not include dairy, eggs, meat, fish, or any product that contains ingredients coming from animals, sugar coffee tea oils( extremely important)

I have seen children who are on a plant-based diet and consuming junk like chips also have issues like pimples. Hence I would like to focus your attention on raw fruits veggies greens intake as a cooked meal replacement to see results. I have successfully worked with a child on this issue and after making her day go with one oil-free cooked, gluten-free, fruits for breakfast and salads for dinner, it cleared in 2 months. It’s very important that you also hydrate your body when you wake up with either limewater or cucumber juice.

हेलो,

कारण - शरीर में अम्ल की अधिकता के कारण ऐसा होता है। त्वचा हमारे शरीर का सहज ज़रिया है अम्ल (acid) को प्रतिबिम्बित करने का। शरीर (elimination)निष्कासन की प्रक्रिया में लगा है।

समाधान - खीरा+एलोवेरा का पल्प का पेस्ट वंहा लगाएँ जंहा परेशानी है।  20मिनट के लिए लगाएँ।

त्वचा को गुलाब जल + बेसन और हल्दी से साफ़ करें। साबुन या कोई भी क्रीम का प्रयोग बंद कर दें।नहाने के पानी में ख़ुशबू वाले फूलों का रस मिलाएँ। नींबू या पुदीना का रस मिला सकते हैं।खाना खाने से एक घंटे पहले नाभि के ऊपर गीला सूती कपड़ा लपेट कर रखें या खाना के 2 घंटे बाद भी ऐसा कर सकते हैं।

मेरुदंड (स्पाइन) सीधा करके बैठें। हमेशा इस बात ध्यान रखें। हफ़्ते में 3 दिन मेरुदंड का स्नान करें। मेरुदंड स्नान के लिए अगर टब ना हो तो एक मोटा तौलिया गीला कर लें बिना निचोरे उसको बिछा लें।अपने मेरुदंड को उस पर रखें।

नहाने के पानी में ख़ुशबू वाले फूलों का रस मिलाएँ। नींबू या पुदीना का रस मिला सकते हैं। नीम का रस भी बहुत फ़ायदा करेगा।

जीवन शैली - सुबह लंबा गहरा स्वाँस अंदर भरें और रुकें फिर पूरे तरीक़े से स्वाँस को ख़ाली करें रुकें फिर स्वाँस अंदर भरें ये एक चक्र हुआ। ऐसे 10 चक्र एक टाइम पर करना है। ये दिन में चार बार करें।

सूर्य उदय के एक घंटे बाद या सूर्य अस्त के एक घंटे पहले का धूप शरीर को ज़रूर लगाएँ। सर और आँख को किसी सूती कपड़े से ढक कर। जब भी लेंटे अपना दायाँ भाग ऊपर करके लेटें ताकि आपकी सूर्य नाड़ी सक्रिय रहे।

सुबह ख़ाली पेट आधा खीरा 5 पुदीने या करी पत्ते के साथ पिस कर उसमें 100ml पानी मिला कर पिएँ।जूस को मुँह में रख कर एक बार सहज स्वाँस लें फिर घूँट अंदर लें।

2 घंटे बाद कोई भी एक तरीक़े का फल नाश्ते में लें।फल को ठीक से चबा कर खाएँ। कोई नमक या चाट मसला या चीनी, दूध मिक्स ना करें। 

दोपहर 12 बजे सफ़ेद पेठे (ashguard) 20 ग्राम पीस 100ml पानी मिला कर लें।

नमक सेंधा ही प्रयोग करें। नमक की पके हुए खाने में भी बहुत कम लें। सब्ज़ी पकने बाद उसमें नमक डालें। नमक पका कर या अधिक खाने से शरीर में (fluid)  की कमी हो जाती।

सलाद दोपहर 1बजे बिना नमक के खाएँ तो अच्छा होगा क्योंकि नमक सलाद के गुणों को कम कर देता है। 

सलाद में हरे पत्तेदार सब्ज़ी को डालें और नारियल पीस कर मिलाएँ। कच्चा पपीता 50 ग्राम कद्दूकस करके डालें। कभी सीताफल ( yellow pumpkin)50 ग्राम ऐसे ही डालें। कभी सफ़ेद पेठा (ashgurd) 30 ग्राम कद्दूकस करके डालें। ऐसे ही ज़ूकीनी 50 ग्राम डालें।कद्दूकस करके डालें।कभी काजू बादाम अखरोट मूँगफली भिगोए हुए पीस कर मिलाएँ। रात का खाना 8 बजे खाएँ।

लाल, हरा, पीला शिमला मिर्च 1/4 हिस्सा हर एक का मिलाएँ। शाम 5 बजे नारियल पानी लें।

रात के खाने में इस अनुपात से खाना खाएँ 2 कटोरी सब्ज़ी के साथ 1कटोरी चावल या 1रोटी लें। रात 8 बजे के बाद कुछ ना खाएँ, 12 घंटे का (gap) अंतराल रखें। 8बजे रात से 8 बजे सुबह तक कुछ नहीं खाना है।

एक नियम हमेशा याद रखें ठोस(solid) खाने को चबा कर तरल (liquid) बना कर खाएँ। तरल  को मुँह में घूँट घूँट पीएँ। खाना ज़मीन पर बैठ कर खाएँ। खाते वक़्त ना तो बात करें और ना ही TV और mobile को देखें।ठोस  भोजन के तुरंत बाद या बीच बीच में जूस या पानी ना लें। भोजन हो जाने के एक घंटे बाद तरल पदार्थ  ले सकते हैं।

जानवरों से उपलब्ध होने वाले भोजन वर्जित हैं।

तेल, मसाला, और गेहूँ से परहेज़ करेंगे तो अच्छा होगा। चीनी के जगह गुड़ लें।

हफ़्ते में एक दिन उपवास करें। शाम तक केवल पानी लें, प्यास लगे तो ही पीएँ। शाम 5 बजे नारियल पानी और रात 8 बजे।

धन्यवाद।
