Good Enough to Eat

Would you nibble on chemical preservatives? Then why put them on your skin?

The world’s oldest surviving system of natural medicine, Ayurveda, offers a simple guideline to determine whether a beauty product is safe: If you wouldn’t put it in you mouth, don’t apply it to your skin.

Skin isn’t just a dead layer covering your body; it’s the body’s largest organ and also one of its most sensitive.

So sensitive, in fact, that when we put products on our skin, they are absorbed by the pores and travel into the blood stream. Proof of this can be seen in one of the newest methods of drug delivery, the transdermal patch. Transdermal delivery is the reason it’s important to use only all-natural, organic products that are free of synthetic ingredients. If you apply a skin cream with additives, preservatives, and other chemicals, you will be introducing toxic substances into your blood, which can aggravate your liver, your immune system and your skin.

Consider that each square inch of skin contains 1,300 nerve endings. Think of your skin “as an extension of your nervous system that can be directly influenced by what is placed on the skin.” Rashes, hives, eczema, acne, dark circles under the eyes, and puffiness can be reflections of internal imbalances due to what the body ingests through the skin, the mouth, the ears, and the eyes.

Simply stated, healthy living makes for healthy skin.
