Dead Sea Minerals Health Benefits
Monday, March 1st, 2010THE SKIN
The problem of skin aging is not considered a medical problem. Since dermatology is restricted to medical treatment in cases of skin diseases, the branch of cosmetics deals with the maintenance and improvement of skin condition. Cosmetics use a large variety of active ingredients and EDOM line adds the minerals and mud of the Dead Sea to those ingredients and makes its products more useful and effective.
As we all know, skin ages mainly due to the gradual and constant loss of its liquid content; in other words, it gradually dries out. As a consequence it becomes and looks “tired”, older and wrinkled. As a partial solution to this problem, the cosmetic industry has developed a variety of “moisturizing preparations”. The problem is that these preparations are absorbed by the skin to only a limited extent, and do not reach all layers of the skin. This difficulty is due mainly to the skin structure and function.
In order to simplify the explanation, let us talk only about two layers: the epidermis and the dermis.
The epidermis is the skin’s outer layer, which is composed of five layers of flat cells. It grows on the basis of the dermis and is nourished by it. The epidermis is the skin layer that can be affected by cosmetics and then can affect the appearance of the skin. The epidermis renews itself constantly by cell division (mitosis). As the live cells are pushed outward from the base layer, they dry up and flatten out until they reach the horny layer where they are stored as dead cells. This covering of dead cells (the horny layer or stratum corneum), serves as the body’s main protection. (The outer cells must be dead since live cells cannot exist if they are exposed to air and water).
The epidermis contains as we already mentioned, five layers of cells. These cells are at various levels of maturity that renew themselves each 21-40 days by the mitosis process.
Under the dead cells (the stratum corneum), we find the stratum granulosum. These two layers are covered by sebum and they constantly move outward. They are called the barrier layer because they prevent the penetration of external substances into the skin and the loss of water from the skin.
In the stratum granulosum, there is a negative electric field which acts as another means of protection. Substances carrying a negative electric charge (anions) are repulsed by it. Only cations, the carries of a positive electrical charge, are accepted. They are trapped and held inside it. The minerals in EDOM line are cations.
In order to overcome these barriers and penetrate into the skin, we use lipid emulsion containing water. It overcomes the fatty barrier and enhances absorption through the epidermis, creating hydration. We also use substances that affect absorption through the duct of the sebaceous glands and the duct of hair roots. It means that the skin is only partially impenetrable.
THE SKIN TYPE
When we use cosmetics, it is necessary to look at the type of the skin, its condition etc. The sebaceous glands produce the sebum, which is a viscous mixture of fatty acids, waxy substances, cholesterol and celluloid (cellular waste). The sebum is secreted on the skin through the pores. On the face, the sebaceous glands are concentrated in the T area, along the width of the forehead and down along the nose to the chin. Hyperactivity of the sebaceous glands causes oily skin and their hypo activity causes dry skin. Acne is a condition connected to the activity of the sebaceous glands.
THE pH
PH is a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a substance in the form of a diluted solution. The sebum contains among other ingredients fatty acids. The concentration of the fatty acids on the skin produces the acidic covering. This is a natural sheath against inflammation. The natural bacteria of the skin are capable of existing and functioning in pH level from 4.5 to 7, and this is why it is so important to keep the pH level neutral. Since the sebum must flow through the outer layers of the skin in order to produce the acidic covering, the factor of time plays a role in the renewal of the covering if it is damaged. These reasons led to the production of cosmetics with a balanced pH. Thus is EDOM cosmetics.

It attacks people mentally due to the physical effects it has on ones appearance with this it effects people socially resulting in low self esteem which can stem to many social and confidence problems, along with some of the side effects of the perscription drugs which can be depression which can become life threatening.
Acne is generally caused by bacteria, it is a result of too much bacteria entering the pores of the skin
and mixes with the natural sebum of the skin causing infection. Teens are most susceptible to acne during growth periods with the hormonal changes which causing the skin to produce more sebum as the skin is producing more sebum it is more likely to get infected and produce an infection. The teens are a very important stage to any humans life. Its and age when they are establishing there freedom and sexuality. This is what makes acne such a debilitating disease, and
can have a traumatic effect on there lives. Acne can cause nervousness, anxieties, depression and which attacks people personally along with this these syptoms can make the acne worse along with side effects of perscription drugs.
Cosmetics, skin allergies, senstive skin, poor hygene, poor diet puberty and stress can all be factors in the cause of acne. Though acne is generally caused by bacteria. Pores are an excellent breading ground for bacteria and once the growth gets under way it can difficult to stop. Nervious itching and playing with the facial skin will only help spread any bacteria and should be avoided.
An excellent topical treatment for bacteria is Manuka Honey it is not gimick or a sales pitch so please try not to be scepticle. Manuka Honey is widely being used in hospitals through out the world and continuously being tested with astounding results.
Even just by itself as a face mask will be just as effective and the creams which are available. Some people are put off by the sticky texture. Though this natural texture of the honey will assist in drawing out impurities and cleanse the pores of the skin.
Active Manuka honey is known as an excellent natural moisturiser and has excellent properties for skin care. It has antioxidant properties to help protect the skin from any nasty toxins, its rich in vitamins, minerals and natural proteins to help feed and nourish skin. And its an effective anti- bacterial which works with the skin making it a perfect alternative for acne and skin infections. Honey itself is high in peroxide and healthy for most diets though Active Manuka Honey contains and extra factor which works against even the toughest of bacteria. This factor is labeled as UMF (unique manuka factor) or has recently been labelled as MGO (mythol-glyoxal) which is the naturally occurring compound which makes manuka honey effective.
As I have previously stated this is not a myth or a ploy Manuka Honey is now being used world wide though out hospitals with some excellent results. UMF is a scentifically tested scale to measure the activity of the honey.
Ance does need to be treated though be careful with prescription drugs and read the label to make yourself aware if the side effects.

You will probably find its not as unbearable as you think though it’s not the best look in public. There are many Manuka Honey acne creams on the market today which are proving to be very successful with some excellent feed back and you will find the price is quiet pleasant as well. The luxury of using the creams is you can apply and just let it soak into the skin for the
duration of the day though it is advised to read the label first.
Acne is a very unpleasant skin disorder and effects millions of people everyday with this it is a massive industry for chemical and pharmaceutical companies. If you or one of your loved one is effected by this disorder be vigilant with what the doctor is prescribing and the side effects which are listed or what you feel it may be causing. Trying something like a Manuka Honey cream or the honey alone will more than likely be beneficial and can be used along side these treatments as well.
Wild Ferns Manuka Honey Skin care
Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009Wild Ferns the exciting new range from Parrs Skin care new improved products which are now even better and more natural than ever before.
All products are paraben, mineral oil and, lanolin free and are suitable for the most senative of skins.
Another remarkabale remarkable change to the product is the quality and assurance that only the highest quality of manuka honey is tested and constistantly used in the Manuka Honey beauty range. And a new rating has been tademarked and used to consistantly control it’s quality.
Manuka is a flowering tea tree native to New Zealand. The honey that is collected from these flowers has long been renowned for its remarkable beneficial properties.
Honey contains special antibacterial properties including an enzyme that produces hydrogen peroxide, which is a proven antiseptic.
Manuka honey has higher levels of this enzyme thereby containing a greater level of antiseptic and antibacterial properties. It is extremely rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals and has the outstanding ability to nourish, soothe and heal sensitive skin.
Manuka honey also contains active antioxidants that neutralise free radicals which are responsible for skin cell damage. Manuka honey assists in the growth of new cell and tissue regeneration making it the perfect ingrediant for skin care products.
Wild Ferns Manuka Honey skincare products all contain Active AAH 650+ (Active Antibacterial Antioxidant Honey 650+), a uniquely tested manuka honey. The honey is trademarked and strictly controlled to ensure only the best manuka products contain it. It was developed following extensive research by Dr Geoffrey Savage, Associate Professor of Food Biochemistry at Lincoln University in Canterbury, New Zealand. Dr Savage is one of New Zealand’s leading authorities on the health benefits of honey and antioxidants. He and his team found that active AAH 650+ manuka honey contained extremely high, naturally occurring levels of antibacterial activity and antioxidants — far more than any other honey varietals.
The method used to test the antibacterial activity of active AAH 650+ manuka honey is completely different to the more commonly recognised UMF honey. It is a scientifically-proven method of testing that measures the same thing as UMF (antibacterial activity in honey), but is completely reliable and gives consistent, repeatable results every time. This means that only jars of active AAH 650+ manuka honey are guaranteed to contain active honey, and that the honey contained is active to the level stated on the packaging (650+).
The scale of measuring the antibacterial activity in active AAH 650+ manuka honey is also different to that of UMF. The active AAH activity range is 470-650+. For UMF, the activity range is 8-25+. With both testing methods, the higher the number, the more antibacterial activity the honey contains and the better it is for natural healing. For active AAH manuka honey, 650+ is the highest possible level of antibacterial activity the honey can have, and is equivalent to the highest commonly available UMF rating.
Active AAH 650+ Manuka Honey is not only high in antibacterial activity, it is also extremely high in antioxidants. As already mentioned, antioxidants neutralise free radicals in the environment. These free radicals are caused by everyday environmental factors such as air, sunlight and pollution. They have been medically recognised as the cause of degenerative skin diseases such as wrinkles and skin discolourations, and can damage cells and harm the immune system. It is believed that using products that are high in antioxidants can help prevent or limit these negative effects.
Users of manuka honey skin care products are experiencing astounding results as manuka honey helps rebuild and repair the skin rather than just focusing on eliminating the problem periodically. It works by feeding the skin of essential nutrients, assisting a healthy growth of the skin, protecting the skin from free radicals, and locking in the moisture.
