Brief Answer:
Allergy to some of its ingredients possible.

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thank you for asking Health care magic forum.

I have gone through your query. Your problem is most likely due to allergy from some of ingredients of the product you took. In such case you should stop taking it.

I usually advise antihistamine like levocetirizine for oral intake and calamine lotion for local application on rashes for such cases in my patients.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.

Brief Answer:
Stop salads

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for your follow up query.

If you were taking shakes before you can continue that. Salads should be discontinued as you told you got rashes after taking that. So some ingredients from that are possibly allergic to you. If shakes also started taking together with this then that also should be discontinued.

Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear.
Thanks.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
