Blood Impurity / Skin

Impure blood — recurring boils, itching, skin eruptions.

Food Remedies

Main remedy
Lemon: Squeeze one lemon into a glass of warm water and drink it three times a day — the vitamin C helps the skin and the liver do their own clearing, and it eases constipation, which is often what the skin is showing. It does not purify blood: the kidneys and the liver do that, and no food stands in for them. Mausami: its juice brings vitamin C and folate, which the skin uses to repair itself, and it is gentle on a poor appetite. It does not purify blood — the kidneys and the liver do that. And from the outside: neem-leaf paste on the boils and the itch, washed off after twenty minutes — what is eaten alone does not settle what shows on the skin.

Seasonal berries and mulberry — the pigments in them are antioxidants, and the skin shows the benefit. They do not purify blood; nothing eaten does.
