Cooling Recipes to Balance Pitta & Support Radiant Summer Skin
When temperatures rise, our skin often reflects the internal heat that builds up—especially for those with oily, acne-prone skin or a Fiery (Pitta) body constitution.
In Ayurvedic wisdom, summer aggravates the fire element (pitta), which governs digestion, inflammation, and metabolism. When this heat accumulates, it shows up in the skin as:
- Excess oil production
- Breakouts and congestion
- Redness and irritation
- Skin that feels “angry” or reactive
The solution? Balance that heat through cooling, hydrating, anti-inflammatory ingredients that support digestion, calm the liver, and clear internal heat. These four smoothies and juices do exactly that.
