my face is has tons of blemishes...

Is this a side effect from eating raw? does anyone have suggestions to clear it up or will time heal it? thanks for reading....

[Aleesha Sattva]

actually the opposite is a side effect/bonus from going raw...

so it's probably detox!

Keep eating RAW and Drink plenty of Water, which can excererate your Detox. A process called Colonics can also speed the waste out of your Body. Over the years our Bodies accumulate So many Toxians and they stay with us if we keep feeding them. But when we Stop feeding them.......They don't know what to do and they POP up EVERYWHERE...........

Eat plenty of fresh whole raw foods because they have a lot of natural fiber in them that will help "whisk" the intestines clean instead of pushing the toxins out through the skin.

I recently broke out with tiny bumps on my forehead. Nothing seems to work to get rid of them. My new attempt at skin cleaning is steaming my face over water with pink salt in it. I'll see if that works. Good luck to you also.

I started taking 75mg of zinc capsules a day and my acne has been clearing up. I've been suffering with acne for 8-months now and finally it's going away!

It was the opposite for me!

But I still get blemishes every once in awhile. Nothing like the acne from before, though. Never again!

Two things that might help:

1/ Oil pulling (http://www.uncooking101.com/step-by-step-guide-how-to-oil-pull.shtml)

2/ Green smoothies (http://www.uncooking101.com/basic-green-smoothie-recipe.shtml)

Good luck!

I get them occ. Once when I was detoxing yrs ago, I had tons of bumps on my legs..like pimples. It was the 'garbage' coming out.
Try diluted vinegar to help dry/clear them up....1c water + 1TBL ACV. Put in a spritz bottle & spray while in the shower. Let it dry into your skin. I'd sleep on a hand towel changed daily or change pillow case daily. The oil & stuff is coming out on the fabric then back on your skin. Since it's so hot, I only wear makeup when I going to Church or some other place special. I think this helps.
I do open mine after a shower gently with a soft towel or 2 qtips at the base then put some more ACV on it. If you don't wear much make up or at least when your not, put a dab of honey on them. Honey will kill the bacteria along with the ACV.
