I just came across this interesting article by skincare expert Pat Lam regarding Probiotics and Iwanted to share it with you:
“Probiotics are being referred to as the latest anti-aging food and recently, in the health food industry, well-known stores are allocating a large segment of their shelves to display probiotics. Also, some food manufacturers are adding prebiotics and probiotics to natural foods, such as milk and eggs, in order to meet the demands of educated consumers seeking to optimize good health. When choosing the best probiotics, check the nutrition label to ensure that there are one billion bacteria per serving from one of the recommended active strains, including lactobacillus acidophilus.”
Here is why you need Probiotics:
“Heavy medications, especially antibiotics, can destry the microflora that grows in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, particularly in the large intestines. Clients with clogged, congested, and unhealthy complexions that can be directly attributed to improper nutrition, indigestion, and dietary intake, particularly acne and rosacea.
A more holistic approach to treating the skin needs to be taken. Topical treatments such as facials and body services cannot alleviate certain skin conditions that are linked to deeper internal problems.”
Ok, products and treatments are only part of the solution, so if you want to find out more about this interesting subject check this out!!
