Basis Of Skin Care

Dr. John Christopher, N.D. has astutely pointed out…” The liver, kidneys and skin are the chief organs for carrying off impurities and waste matter, If the liver is torpid, and bile retained in the system, we may find in one case the retained bile has affected the digestion. In another case we may find a skin eruption. If the kidneys fail to secrete as they should, the blood stream is polluted. The skin may be retaining impurities, or the lungs may be unable to oxygenize the blood due to impure air being breathed.” The Complete Writings of Dr. John Christopher, N.D — C.D.Rom

The skin therefore is simply an indication or lack thereof of the impurities within the system. Starting inside therefore must not be overlooked…In fact that is the basis.

Burdock Root Helps The Skin

Speaking of Burdock root as a natural skin remedy Dr. Christopher adds: “It is one of the best alterative and depurative (blood-purifying) agents in nature but does not nauseate. Burdock root beneficially influences the skin, soothes the kidneys and relieves congestions of the lymphatic. It increases the flow of urine and it is a useful agent for removing excess and fatty (adipose) tissue…

Other Natural Skin Remedies

Oatmeal is an excellent natural skin remedy—it heals and soothes dry skin, and helps the skin to slough off dead skin cells. Oatmeal is a potent anti-inflammatory agent, used on every skin type and including sensitive/problem skin types that can react badly to various ingredients. This will not happen when you use oatmeal, it is gentle and neutral.

Cucumbers are another one of the popular skin remedies. Cucumber has compounds that are extremely beneficial for the skin. Many people apply cold slices of cucumber to their skin to reap its benefits. Cucumber face pack is also very beneficial for the treatment of dry skin.

At the end of the day however…it is imperative that the liver, gall bladder, kidney, colon, and blood be kept functioning so that they can help the body eliminate the toxins that lead to the various skin conditions that cause so many problems.
