I have been eating a pretty healthy diet going on 3 years now. I have greatly improved my overall health and immune system and keep working every day to make it just a little better.

One thing that I am still struggling with is the "bags" under my eyes. I look around and the more I pay attention, the majority of the population is walking around with this baggage, it makes us look unhealthy.

I am 40 now and it makes me look old!! I have read alot and it I need to keep up-ing my exercise, I have read that it is partly due to drainage and a slow lymphatic system. I have also read that a neti-pot helps to clear the sinuses and promote this drainage.

Anyone work with a neti pot much or find something to help with dark circles? I don't want to use eye creams or other things, I want to try to clear it from the source inside my body. I tried the neti pot once, it was a little weird but seemed do-able, just haven't had a chance to get used to using with any regularity.

Thanks.

Becky .... I don't have an answer for you but have been looking online to get a netti pot for my daughter. Can't find one in town. I'm looking forward to finding out what everyone says for the undereye bags -- my mom has this.

Becky, I've had dark circles under my eyes for years and tried many things without any luck. Now if you're just talking about bags, there are some home remedies such as cucumbers. But if you have dark circles, it's a sign of toxins built up in the systems.... have you done all the cleanses yet.... this might be your answer!

I have read that dark circles are caused by an iron and vitamin K deficiency.

Becky,I have had bad sinus problems most of my adult life and i had bags under my eyes.I also hadn't slept since i got married due to my husband snoring so i have bags.I now use a netti pot and got rid of the snoring,in a nice way,we are still together.My bags are not so dark and puffy as they used to be so i guess they are working.I love irrigating my sinuses.Hope this helps
