Your skin is the largest organ of your body. Not only does it reveal emotional feelings by paling, blushing and other expressions, it also tells a story about the overall health of the rest of your body. No other organ is as exposed to damage or disease; it is especially vulnerable to sunlight, injury and environmental pollutants.
The skin protects underlying structures from injury and acts as a barrier to bacteria and viruses. It contains nerve endings that are able to sense heat and cold, pain, pressure and touch. It also regulates body temperature by producing sweat which, when it evaporates, has a cooling effect.
Your skin starts aging when the cells die off faster than the body can replace them. It is estimated that each person sheds approximately 22 kilograms of skin cells in his or her lifetime. Illness, stress, anxiety and depression also add to the aging of the skin. Natura’s homoeopathic remedies can be used to help the body overcome underlying disturbances and restore balance to this vulnerable and sensitive organ.
