~ Natural Skin Care ~


Since your skin is the largest organ in the human body, the pores are like a window.
It is important to keep them clean, as the body can be choked when the skin becomes
unclean. Many substances on the market today simply smother the skin and do great
damage by shutting off the oxygen supply to the system.

All substances applied to the skin, as well as environmental elements, either clog it
and/or are absorbed going straight to the bloodstream. They don't have a chance to be
filtered by the liver. Therefore, only high-grade, natural vegetable oils should be used
on the skin.

When you perspire, your body rids itself of toxins. These toxins need to be removed as
soon as possible. Water that is tepid to slightly warmer is relaxing and the heat expands
the body tissue bringing toxic poisons to the surface then they are discharged and
eliminated. Cleansing should be followed by a cold rinse which will contract the tissue,
close the pores and cause the skin to be sealed again where it will not allow exposure,
cold, flu or pneumonia to set in.

When cleansing the skin, once again, only high-grade natural and biodegradable
products should be used. If two-thirds of the skin is clogged, there is not enough
oxygen entering through the nose and lungs to meet the body's full requirement, so the
skin must be kept clean and clear.

Seeing the importance of and the sensitivity of the skin, how we cover it is vital as well.

Natural fibers (cotton, linen, silk, wool, hemp etc.) allow the skin to breathe. It is
imperative for air to circulate between the skin and clothing; so free and loose-fitting
natural clothing is best.

Synthetic fibers (polyester, nylon etc,) should be avoided, they do not allow the skin to
breathe properly and clog the pores. Many people become covered with itches and
rashes and are poisoned from wearing synthetic fibers. This is also a major cause of
static electricity, which many don't realize, causes mental confusion.

These procedures will help to retain and restore the skin's vitality (1)

Since more than 50% of everything that touches your skin is absorbed into your
body, shouldn't your personal care products should be selected with the same
consideration given to choosing your foods?
