Healthy skin means good health overall
The skin is the human body's largest organ.
Its a host to the new buzz word at the moment - Microbiome, which is the connection between the gut health , our overall health and our skins condition.
The skins microbiome is part of the physical layer of the skin that protects us from the outside world. Keeping these microorganisms happy and harmonious is key to glowing skin. The gut microbiome works very close with immune system molecules.
If you are not looking after your gut health , it can alter the immune responses , prompting the release of inflammatory molecules.
Low level inflammation of the gut over a long period can harm, potentially increasing the risk of inflammatory skin conditions. If there is imbalance between good and bad bacteria and when the bad are multiplying , because of environmental and lifestyle factors such as exposure to UV light , air pollution , poor diet or drinking, it stands to reason the our skin won't be glowing.
It will be dry, dull, congested , lacklustre.
Using your products in the wrong way or products with harsh ingredients like retinols and prolonged use of antibiotics are also bad for the gut health.
Never use a product on the skin that makes it feel sore, tight, tingly, burning, it couldn't be doing anything positive to your skin.
It's always a good idea to use a probiotic after antibiotics to balance the gut health. The skin plays a balancing act between beneficial , neutral and harmful flora that are interrelated with the immune system.
Drink plenty of water to keep the body hydrated.
If you have being using the same products for a long time, two to three years, it's time to have fresh skin consultation.
A change is as good as a rest. Contact Jill to arrange a consultation 064-6632966
