What are the Triphala side effects on skin? - #10475
I’ve recently started using Triphala for detox and digestion, but I’ve noticed some changes in my skin since I began taking it. While my acne seems to have improved, I’ve also experienced occasional dryness and flakiness. This made me wonder, what are the Triphala side effects on skin, and is it possible to use it safely for long-term benefits? I’ve read that Triphala is known for its detoxifying properties, which can help clear out toxins and improve skin health. But are there situations where it might lead to skin irritation or other problems? For instance, does taking Triphala in high doses cause dryness or sensitivity, especially for people with already dry skin? I’ve also been thinking about using Triphala topically, like mixing it into face masks. Is it safe to apply directly to the skin, or should it always be taken internally? Are there specific recipes or combinations that work well for skin issues like acne or pigmentation? If anyone has experienced changes in their skin after using Triphala, I’d love to know what happened. Did it improve your skin health, or did you encounter side effects?
