Your ongoing acne and irregular bowel habits indicate internal imbalance affecting both skin and improving and bowel regularity will help produce acne naturally Triphala churna 0-0-1 tsp at night Alovera juice 10-0-0 ml with water Neem and basil face pack weekly twice

Irregular bowel movements and persistent acne can certainly be interconnected, as Ayurveda places a strong emphasis on digestion being linked to skin health. Begin by addressing your digestive issues, as proper elimination (malasana) is crucial to balance your doshas and ultimately improve your skin condition.

Start with a spoonful of Triphala powder before bedtime. Mix it in warm water or take it as a tablet. Triphala supports healthy digestion and regular bowel movements by gently cleansing and detoxifying the system without being overly harsh. But be consistent with it; results aren’t immediate but will come with regular use.

Your diet itself can also be a culprit. Try to avoid heavily processed, oily, or spicy foods as these can aggravate Pitta dosha, contributing to acne and digestive troubles. Instead, opt for warm, cooked meals that are freshly prepared, and ensure your meals include fiber-rich foods like vegetables and whole grains to support digestion.

Hydration is fundamental, so aim for about 8-10 glasses of water daily, but steer clear of very cold drinks, as these can dampen agni, or digestive fire. Consider drinking lukewarm water throughout the day, and add herbal teas, such as ginger or fennel, which can gently boost digestion.

For your skin, adopt a simple regimen using natural, gentle products. Wash your face with a mild Ayurvedic cleanser containing neem, turmeric, or sandalwood, all known for their skin-purifying properties. Apply natural aloevera gel as a moisturizer; it’s soothing and can help reduce inflammation associated with acne.

Daily routines, or dinacharya, are essential too. Try waking up and sleeping at the same time regularly, as routine supports bodily rhythms. Incorporate some daily moderate exercise like walking to aid digestion and circulation — these can improve both skin and digestive health over time.

Acne and digestive troubles can indeed be linked, often pointing to an internal imbalance that reflects externally on the skin. In your case, these symptoms suggest a possible imbalance in Vata and Pitta doshas, with some digestive irregularity affecting your Agni, or digestive fire.

Firstly, regulate your Agni by starting your day with a glass of warm water infused with a half teaspoon of crushed cumin seeds. This can stimulate digestion and bowel movements. Taking this on an empty stomach aids in cleansing your intestines, promoting regularity.

For acne, ensure you maintain a consistent face-cleansing routine using natural products. A paste of sandalwood powder mixed with a little rose water applied to the affected areas can help calm the skin. It’s essential to let it sit for about 15-20 minutes before rinsing off gently, doing this twice a week may reduce inflammation.

Diet adjustment might also be necessary. Consume warm, freshly prepared foods emphasizing bitter vegetables like bitter gourd and leafy greens. Avoid excessively oily, spicy, or sour foods that could aggravate Pitta, and ensure you drink plenty of lukewarm water throughout the day to keep the vata in check.

Incorporate some pranayama or gentle yoga into your daily routine to balance energies and aid digestion. Specific Asanas such as Pavanamuktasana (Wind-Relieving Pose) and Paschimottanasana (Seated Forward Bend) can be particularly beneficial.

If symptoms persist or worsen, consult an Ayurveda practitioner for a more detailed assessment. Persistent digestive problems can sometimes indicate a more serious condition requiring medical intervention. A professional would be best suited to determine whether other treatments might be necessary.
