Ingredients to get rid of spots on your skin

What causes brown spots?

Drew explains in a YouTube video that age (or sun) spots are caused by ultraviolet rays from the sun. When your skin is exposed to ultraviolet rays, the body produces melanin as a way to tan the skin, effectively building up an armor to protect the deeper layers of skin. This is why age spots typically appear on the arms, neck, shoulders, face, and other areas of the body that are most often exposed to the sun.
While sun spots are not ordinarily dangerous, if you notice some are much darker than others, have been growing quickly, or have oddly shaped borders, you should visit a doctor. If they are red, tender, or bleeding, you should see a doctor immediately.

Even if your age spots are harmless, you may be tired of looking at them. Luckily, Drew explains in the following video, there is a method for removing them! The method, which was developed by Doug Willen, D.C., a NYC nutrition expert and author of Quantum Paleo, uses just two simple ingredients: onion and apple cider vinegar.

To make the homemade solution, dice fresh onion and put the pieces in a plastic bag. Then, using some sort of heavy object, crush the onions to extract their juices. Pour the onion with 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar into a blender and blend until well-mixed.
