Experiences with detox diet?

i had an bad rash on my shin for yrs that got a lot worse during the winter and i bought a juicer and did a detox for a month and it really didn't get rid of my rash. i was spending over $100 a week doing the juicing.

i saw a youtube video on charcoal and bought a book on using charcoal for healing and made a charcoal poultice for my rash and it disappeared over a few weeks and never came back. plus i also drank charcoal powder mixed in water. so i'm not sure whether it was the poultice, the drink or a combo of both that got rid of the rash but it's gone.

I think you should do an elimination diet. I tried doing a detox diet for 2 weeks but I didn't see any signs of my eczema clearing up. I found out the main cause of my flareups was from eating seafood and dairy products. I had a food diary and would fill it out at the end of each day for 3 months. I took note of when my flareups would happen and what I ate before hand. Also recorded if I came in contact with any fragrances or chemicals and the lotions I used throughout the day.

It was a very detailed diary.

As soon as I eliminated those triggers from my diet, my skin started to itch less and breakouts were only mild.

Aside from that, I also kept my skin hyrdated which is very important if you want to heal your eczema :)

I usually detox when I feel bloated or have bad skin and yes it does help a lot you feel refreshed and lighter and clearer so go for it!!
