Healthy Skin with Phytoplankton

Healthy Skin with Phytoplankton

Skin, the body’s largest organ, acts as a protective barrier or shields against external aggressions.[i] This is an incredibly important role. To perform this role correctly, the skin must be healthy and maintained correctly.

Your skin is tough, but like every part of your body it is still vulnerable and prone to damage. As you age, damage becomes more apparent. Your skin may become thinner and weaker and the blood vessels found in the skin may also become more fragile. Aging may also cause a decrease in the natural oils produced by your skin.[ii]

According to an article by the Mayo Clinic, some of the best ways to maintain skin health are, using sun protection, avoiding smoking, managing stress, keeping a healthy diet and treating your skin gently. The article states that one should avoid harsh soaps and detergents that strip your skin of its natural oil.[iii]

Our phytoplankton products promote better health from head to toe, including your skin. According to WebMD, some of the best vitamins and supplements for your skin include Vitamin E, which is anti inflammatory and helps protect against UV rays, Zinc, which can help skin heal after injury and Omega 3s and amino acids that help produce collagen and keratin that form the structure of the skin.[iv] All of these ingredients are found naturally in our phytoplankton products.

Our phytoplankton products are powerful antioxidants. Fighting against oxidative stress is very beneficial for skin because oxidative stress, created by hazardous factors such as UV rays and environmental pollutants, can accelerate skin aging and can contribute to skin inflammation and carcinogenesis.[v]

Alongside our phytoplankton products intended for oral consumption, we also have a new soap and a lotion. Our skin products are free of harsh ingredients that may dry out or irritate your skin. They include our phytoplankton along with many other ingredients that are known to benefit skin health such as aloe, shea butter, jojoba oil and more.

In conclusion, maintaining good skin health is of utmost importance. You can do this in part with our phytoplankton products, which help with overall nutrition and health, and our new skin products that help clean and nourish the skin without the use of harsh ingredients.
