Fall is a time of transition for the skin. Not only summertime damage needs to be corrected, but a lack of preparation now becomes critical during those long winter months ahead.
While we are most aware of our “outside skin”, the “inside skin’ of the
lungs and digestive tract covers a much larger area. This entire surface
is replaced every twenty days, and degree, to which the condition of
your skin is influenced by what you eat and drink, as well as other
factors such as your environment and, more obviously, cosmetics, is
quite remarkable.
No other organ of the body is so exposed to damage from the outside such
as from injury, sunlight, smoking, environmental pollution, and germs.
At the same time skin reflects many conditions and emotions that come
from within, for example, when it blushes or sweats.
Cold sores and chicken pox show that there is some sort of internal
infection that the immune system is fighting off, and a yellowish skin
tone may indicate that there is a problem with the liver.
So you can see that condition of your skin is sensitive to a number of
factors including your age, genes, hygiene, circulation, digestion,
detoxification, immune system, your psychology, and of course, what you
eat.
The natural pH of the skin ranges between 4.5 to 5.5 which is acidic. Detergents, chlorine and cold, dry weather all strip away this protective barrier. Once it’s breached,
the skin cells pull away from each other, allowing valuable moisture trapped beneath the skin’s surface to escape.
The result is even drier, flakey, sensitive, itching skin.
Tht's why is very important to use skin products which balancing natural pH.
Great
options include
Lluvia Skin Renewal System.
Nutrition is fundamentally involved at every stage of skin development. Starting with inner layer of the skin,
collagen is made when vitamin C converts the amino acid praline into hydroxyproline. No
vitamin C, no collagen.
And as you know collagen is responsible for skin
strength and elasticity, and its degradation leads to wrinkles that accompany aging.
Great choice for getting the natural vitamin C is
Pure Camu™. It is a dried powder produced from the Camu Camu- the rainforest fruit which has a highest concentration of
natural vitamin C on the planet. Vitamin C content in Camu Camu is
enhanced by a full profile of naturally occurring minerals: B-complex (B1, B2,
B3); and amino acids:
Leucine-essential amino acid-increases production of growth hormones
(anti-aging component). Serine- supports proper functioning of the brain
and nervous system . All this would be delivered to your cells in natural way.
