SKIN DETOX

“Healthy skin is a reflection of overall wellness” and it brings the confidence in an individual. The prevalence of skin diseases in India is 10-12% of the total population with Eczema and Psoriasis being the major contribution.

Skin is the largest organ in the body and its health depends on healthy diet, lifestyle and environment. Healthy skin regulates the body temperature, prevents loss of essential body fluids, protects the body from harmful effect of the sun & radiation and excretes toxic substance along with the sweat. Also the toxins which get form in the body are taken out regularly by the organs of elimination and detoxification system which are majorly made up of liver and kidney.

Artificially maintaining the temperature throughout the year against the climate by excessive use of room warmer, cooler and air conditioner along with the unhealthy food habit and lifestyle may lead to general decrease in skin barrier function and increased susceptibility towards mechanical stress which makes the skin more reactive towards skin irritants and allergens.

When body detoxifying system is overloaded, it will not be able to remove the toxins out efficiently. It causes accumulation of toxins inside the body which in turn alters the body metabolic system affecting the skin health. Also the pollutants and dirt for which one get exposed to in the environment will block the skin pores.

These accumulated toxins and blocked skin pores can result in the development of a diverse set of skin diseases, with over 3000 entities identified in the literature causing the symptoms or disorders like skin allergy, acne, psoriasis, eczema, urticarial, dermatitis etc.

The key to maintain healthy skin are healthy diet, lifestyle and seasonal detox treatments. Detox treatments help to flush out the accumulate toxins, exfoliates and ensures clear skin pores so one can sweat adequately. Detox also enhances the functions of vital organs like Liver and Kidney and also help to set back the body metabolism.
