Your skin gives shape to your body.
The skin acts as a barrier, protecting the body from invading bacteria, virus, ect.
The skin acts as a thermostat and helps to regulate body temperature.
The skin senses environmental hazards, such as excess heat and cold.
The skin is the largest eliminative organ of the body. It uses sweat to help get rid of waste fluid and purify the body. As the body detoxifies, the skin responds with acne, eczema, psorasis, boils, ect. The pores of the skin allow the body to breath to rid itself of toxins. Clogged pores interfere with this function.
Your shower water is treated with many chemicals especially chlorine. The soaps and shampoos we use are made of many chemicals. Facial makeup, perfume and cologne all have many harmful chemicals. What you feed your body is very important and just as important is what you put on your skin. Give your skin a chance and take some time to review what you're feeding your skin. If you have questions about skin care, ask your HealthFirst Doctor.
