Why is it important to have a healthy skin?

Our skin is like a cloak that covers & protects our internal organs. Most people do not realise how “absorbant” our skin really is ~ being almost like a sponge, that absorbs everything from chemicals in the air, to UV rays from the sun to toxins from our daily skin-care regime.

The absorption of chemicals & toxins could lead to internal cellular damage, which leads to disease, including cancers. This absorption alarmingly, begins right from “baby-in-womb” stage.

A healthy skin is the result of healthy nutrition, ie what you feed your body from the inside and what your skin absorbs from the outside, hence the importance of a healthier intake of food and supplementation (the less processed the better) as well as greener skin care products (chemical & toxin-free) are vital to overall health. To get back to your question, a healthy skin is important to me as it reflects a healthy being, which ultimately promotes youth & longevity ;-)
