It seems like you’re dealing with a combination of oily skin, acne, and deep tanning, which could be due to an imbalance in pitta and kapha doshas. Since you’re looking for a solution that doesn’t involve applying topical products, Ayurveda suggests focusing on internal detoxification and balancing your doshas. You can continue using Patanjali Neem Ghanvati, which is beneficial for clearing toxins from the body, and Anwala juice, which is rich in vitamin C and helps improve skin health. Trifla Churna is great for digestion and detox, but it might be more effective when paired with other herbs like Manjistha and Guduchi, which can help clear up skin issues from within. Consider adding a high-quality Ayurvedic liver detox formula like Liv52 or Arogyavardhini Vati to improve overall skin health. Along with this, stay hydrated with herbal teas like tulsi or ginger tea to maintain skin clarity. For your deep tanning, you can consume turmeric with milk, which will work over time to brighten and even out your skin tone. It may take around 2-3 months of consistent internal treatment along with a healthier diet and lifestyle for noticeable improvements in your skin. Avoiding oily foods and reducing stress as much as possible can also help speed up the process.
If I just use Neem ghanvati , anvla juice, triphala how much time will it take to get cures
Firstly, I totally get how frustrating and irritating relentless skin issues can be. Balancing a busy MBBS schedule isn’t easy either, so I can imagine the added stress. Let’s dive into it from an Ayurvedic angle, yeah?
The oily skin and pimples indicate a possible imbalance in the Pitta dosha, which can lead to excess heat and skin inflammation. Couple that with your hectic lifestyle and possibly erratic diet, it’s no wonder your skin’s acting up. Let’s tackle this from a few fronts:
1. Internal Balance: You’re on the right track with Neem Ghanvati, but consider adding Manjistha as it’s known to purify blood which can help clear up skin issues from the inside. Take 1-2 capsules with warm water in the morning after breakfast. Stick with Neem and Triphla - they’re good; Triphla helps regulate digestion, which is crucial.
2. Dietary Adjustments: Try to cool that fiery Pitta. Avoid spicy, fried, and very sour foods. Load up on cooling foods like cucumbers, melons, and leafy greens. Sip on coconut water; it’s a great natural Pitta pacifier and keeps you hydrated. Try having meals at regular times – your metabolism loves that kind of predictability.
3. Lifestyle Adjustments: Stress can be a sneaky culprit here. Even short daily practices like Pranayama or just spending 5-10 minutes in meditation might help calm the mind and body. Your schedule is tight, I know, but finding just a few minutes each day can really shift things.
4. Sun Exposure and Tanning: You’re in the sun often, right? Wearing a wide-brimmed hat can protect your skin without the need to slather on creams. If you can find time, try using a natural lightweight sunscreen – they’re not as sticky and won’t feel like more layers on your face.
It’s tricky to put an exact timeline on it – but typically, with consistent efforts, you might start noticing some positive changes in a month or so. Keep steady and patient; the body can take time to adjust and heal. If things don’t improve or get worse, please consider reaching out to a dermatologist or an Ayurvedic practitioner who can give personalized care.
