Clear Skin
My face is clearer than it has been since I was literally 12 years old. I have a few annoying blemishes, but they are slowly clearing away. A few months ago, I had quite a lot of acne. After upping my raw food intake, I’ve lost my cravings for coffee, and alchohol. I think the combination of less caffeine, less alchohol and much more fresh foods had been the trick.
I’ve never had serious acne, but have always (well, since I was 13) have many more pimples than I would have liked. Over the past two years, I’ve also noticed it getting much worse. I tried a bunch of “old school” remedies (turmeric powder, apple cider vinegar, off the shelf OXY and the like) but nothing really worked.
This massive diet change seems to be doing the trick.
thank you for this post!
i’ve just gone raw (2 weeks), although i’ve been vegetarian for 5 yrs. prior. i have been on oral meds for my acne for the past few months (with the change of dermatologist), although, like you, i’ve never had serious acne, just more pimples than i would have liked, but this new dermatologist put me on oral meds anyway.
with going raw i decided that i would stop the meds and allow my body to heal naturally. right now my skin is all over the place, my theory is that it’s my body purging the impurities, but of course, there is no way i could be sure. your post puts me at ease.
thanks again.
