In Ayurveda, persistent acne, despite a clean diet and treatments, often points to an imbalance in the "Pitta" dosha, which governs the skin, digestion, and metabolism. While your gut health might seem unaffected, Pitta can manifest through skin issues like acne due to internal heat, stress, or emotional imbalances. This heat could be rising from the digestive system (even if it feels fine) or it may be linked to hormonal imbalances, excess acidity, or emotional factors like stress or anger.

To address this, a combination of cooling and detoxifying treatments is recommended. Incorporating herbs like Neem, Turmeric, and Brahmi can help cool Pitta, while avoiding spicy, oily, and acidic foods. Regular use of gentle, cooling oils like coconut or sandalwood for external application can help calm the skin. Stress management practices such as meditation, yoga, or pranayama can also play a significant role in balancing Pitta.
