Hi, I haven't had hives since I was around 13/14 years of age. I have hives now and was wondering has anybody had hives as a result of going RAW and/or Juicing. I am not 100% RAW by any means...probably 80% most days. We have two 160z fresh carrot and greens juices every day. The hives are not really bad, mildly irritating. Is it possible they are some kind of healing crisis or detox?
thanks in anticipation

Are you juicing buckwheat greens?

No buckwheat greens. Carrots, Celery, Kale, Ginger, Beetroot, the occasional Turnip and Turnip tops.
What happens with Buckwheat greens? And, thank you for responding. :)

Buckwheat greens can cause skin sensitivities..

Try not mixing the juices to see if you can identify which is giving you hives. It may be that it is not the juice per se but just a phase that will pass. Beetroot is very strong; are you drinking a lot of it?

Are you eating much garlic?

Yes for healing crisis and detoxing. Make sure your produce are organic.

Use raw coconut oil on your skin, it will be suiting.
