Dry Skin and Age Spots
|
Dry skin is a major problem at menopause. Hormonal imbalance, nutritional deficiencies and environmental conditions are the main reasons for dry skin.
The most important solution for beautiful skin is to choose the right skin care products. I discovered Revitol, which provides a full line of exlusive natural skin care products. Their products work so well because they have experienced doctors who use the best natural ingredients available. They offer Anti Aging Treatment, Cellulite Solution, Stretch Mark Prevention, Acne Treatments and more.
Your skin is your largest organ responsible for protecting your body from a variety of outside forces, but it is also the most visible part of you, and is susceptible to environmental, physical and hormonal conditions which can make your skin tone appear blotchy and uneven. Skin color is caused by melanin, your body's natural skin pigmentation. A certain level of pigmentation is valuable as protection against sunlight.
Blotchy, uneven skin color results from uneven amounts of melanin in different parts of the skin. There are many reasons for blotchy skin, including hormonal changes and aging. Age spots are also very common as the result of damage to the skin from excessive exposure to sunlight and other ultraviolet radiation, and from years of oxidation by free radicals.

My Home Remedies Solutions
- Take Calcium and Vitamin D supplements - As we age, the skin can not process vitamin D obtained through sunlight as efficiently as it used to. Without a sufficient amount of Vitamin D, our body cannot properly absorb its Calcium intake. Without Vitamin D, the Calcium is expelled from the body through perspiration and waste.
- Drink water - Fortunately, we can fight the dry skin by drinking more water (at least 5-8 oz. glasses a day). Drinking as much water as possible is the most helpful thing women can do for maintaining healthy skin.
- Keep oil in our diet - During the menopausal years, our bodies become depleted of oils. Add a teaspoon of any oil, such as canola, safflower, sunflower, olive to your salad, or cook with it. Don't be afraid of oils, especially Omega-3 oils and Flax Seed oil. Deficiencies in essential fatty acids and other nutrients contribute directly to dry skin.
- Watch what you eat - Diets heavy in sugars or high glycemic foods, additives, artificial sweeteners and trans fats contribute to systemic inflammation, which directly affects the shape, elasticity and flexibility of collagen proteins.
Tip - Miracle juice for beautiful skin: blend 300 ml carrot juice with 200 ml spinach juice; drink early in the morning before breakfast. - Avoid regular washing with soap, or exposure to chemicals; these can remove the skin's natural oils.
Tip - For very dry skin, avoid washing your face with water. Use instead a home made lotion: Linden Flowers tea mixed with one teaspoon of honey. - Moisturize immediately after bathing, while the skin is still damp in order to seal in moisture.
Tip - Home made moisturizing lotion for dry hands and body: put one teaspoon of Caraway in one cup of olive oil and leave it for 2-3 days. Use it mornings and evenings. - Bath less often and use milder soaps or a soap substitute. Soaking in the tub without soap can actually help relieve dry skin.
- Bath with warm water; hot water is more irritating to dry skin than warm water.
