I was curious about the alkalising drink as I believe quite a bit in ayurveda. Ayurveda says there are 3 doshas and not all are the same. Infact for a person of pitta dosha, molasses and sour things (lemons and ACV) should be rarely eaten.
Now, I am a pitta dosha (have acne), does this mean that I am aggravating my acne by eating so much molasses (about 3 tblsps) and ACV (3 tblsps). I cant find anything else that is causing the acne. I have been on the protocol for around 4 months now. I take a lot of kelp (3-4 tblsps) and lime water (5 tblsps with each drink) and I eat a very alkaline diet. I cant grow my own veggies so obviously the brix readings will be low (havent tested them yet), but that shouldnt be a cause for acne I think.
