Are You Itching for Healthy Skin?

Cindy Klement, MS CNS, MCHES

Our Largest Organ

• The skin is considered an organ system because it is large and complex

• It is our external body covering

• The skin of an average adult weighs 8-10 pounds and averages an area of about 22 square feet

• The skin insulates and cushions the deeper body organs from bumps, cuts, chemical and thermal damage, and the bacteria that live on it

• Modified cholesterol molecules located in the skin are converted to Vitamin D by sunlight

The Skin

• Part of the immune system

• Helps with temperature regulation

• Skin is considered the 3rd kidney

• Largest sensory organ

Sensory Organ

• The skin has a rich capillary network controlled by the nervous system

• The cutaneous sense organs are located in the skin - touch, temperature, pressure, and pain receptors

A Mini-Excretory System

• There are over 2 million sweat glands on the body

• They are richly supplied with nerve endings that cause them to secrete perspiration, taking large amounts of body heat with it

• Sweat glands aid the liver by eliminating water-soluble toxins by creating a fever to open sweat glands and force elimination through the skin

Back Up System

• Skin is not a primary organ of elimination, it is a back up system for the liver and kidney

• Sweat takes the load off the kidneys

Skin

• Oil glands keep the skin soft & moist

• When oil ducts have to eliminate toxic fat, due to a congested liver, they become inflamed resulting in pimples, blackheads, acne, boils

• Problems with the skin usually mean a problem with your colon, liver and or kidneys

Layers of the Skin

• Epidermis is the outer layer (5 layers deep)• Thickness varies: eyelids are .05 mm and

palms and soles of feet are thickest at 1.5 mm (0.059 inches!)

• Top layer is made of dead, flat skin cells that shed every 2 weeks

Layers of the Skin

• Dermis varies in thickness• .3 mm on eyelid, and 3.0 mm on the

back

• The types of tissues in the dermis are collagen and elastin

• Hair follicles are situated here, as are the sebaceous (oil) glands and sweat glands

• Blood vessels and nerves course this layer

Layers of the Skin

Adipose Tissue• A layer of fat and connective tissue

• Houses larger blood vessels and nerves

• Important in the regulation of temperature of the skin and the body

The Health of the Skin Depends on the Function of Internal Organs

• For instance, the digestive tract breaks down nutrients needed for healthy skin

Liver & Kidneys

• Liver processes nutrients needed for healthy-looking skin

• Kidneys and liver eliminate toxins which bypass the body’s first line of defense

• Many forms of skin eruptions signal that there are problems with the liver, kidneys, thyroid, or intestines

Endocrine Glands

• Thyroid: processes fats, so dry skin is often linked with thyroid issues

Lymphatics & Circulation

• Good flow of blood and lymph to the skin is needed to maintain that “healthy glow”

• Excess blood flow results in redness

• Deficient blood flow and lymphatic stagnation creates a pale, pasty complexion

Skin Issues: Dermatitis

• Inflammation of the dermal layer of the skin

• Symptoms include: rashes, dry and itchy skin, redness, swelling, “weeping,” crusting and scaling

Skin Issues: Eczema

• Chromic Inflammation of the Skin (i.e., chronic dermatitis)

• Symptoms include: rash, itching, redness, blisters, weeping

• Flaking can clog skin pores and inhibit skin elimination

• Often allergy related

• Candida is known to be an underlying issue as well as heavy metals, and mercury in mouth

Skin Issues: Impetigo

• Contagious form of skin irritation caused by bacteria

• Usually occurs in infants and children (often on the face) when bacteria enter a cut or injury

• Starts as a red sore, ruptures, oozes for a few days, then forms a yellowish-brown crust

Skin Issues: Acne

• Skin pores connect to oil glands by a canal called a follicle, which produce an oily substance called sebum

• When the follicle of a skin gland clogs up, a pimple grows

Skin Issues: Age Spots

• Also known as Liver Spots

• Are caused by solar damage to the skin

• Can be helped with antioxidants

• Increase good fats in the diet

Skin Issues: Wrinkles

• Elastic fibres give the skin its elasticity when we are young

• As we age the number of elastic fibres decreases, and become less elastic, while the subcutaneous tissue looses fat

• As a result the skin sags and wrinkles (gravity also plays a role in this)

Your Face Never LiesMichio Kushi

What Harms the Skin?

• Sudden weight loss

• Vitamin/mineral deficiencies • Vitamins A, B, C, D, E, zinc, sulphur, silicon

• Protein deficiency

• Insufficient intake of essential fatty acids

• Dehydration

• UV rays

What Else Harms the Skin?

• Aging - loss of natural oils, elasticity, pigment, fat

• Exposure to wind, bitter cold, sun and excess water

• Poor diet, over consumption of salt and sugar

• Candida or yeast overgrowth (dysbiosis)

• Toxic colon, blood, liver or kidneys

Other Causes of Skin Issues

• Hormonal imbalances - menopause, diabetes, pregnancy

• Poor circulation

• Pesticide poisoning, heavy metal intoxication

• Reaction to prescription medication

Toxic Chemicals

• On the towels you use, the sheets you sleep on and the clothes you wear (dryer sheets)

• Used to clean your home

• On your skin: body washes, deodorants, lotions, creams, shampoo

The Difference?

• Quercus Penducalata - The bark of the oak tree. A strong astringent which reduces inflammation and prevents infection

• Quassin - Bitter alkaloid obtained from the wood of Quassia amara. Used to poison flies. Toxic to humans.

What Else Harms the Skin?

• Lack of hydrochloric acid

• “Housewife Dermatitis”

• Synthetic clothing where the skin can’t breathe properly

• pH balance either too acidic or too alkaline

Anti-Bacterial Soaps

• They change the ecosystem of skin and allow more harmful bacteria in

• Skin has a slightly acid pH on the surface to discourage harmful microbes

• Soaps are highly alkalizing and disrupt the mantle

What Else Harms the Skin?

• Contact irritants can cause itching such as sweating, wool, and detergents

• Skin damage caused by scratching releases inflammatory cytokines and further stimulates itch

Food Sensitivities/Allergies

• Food allergies, especially to egg, soy, milk, wheat, fish, shellfish, and peanuts are implicated in 1/3 to 1/2 of children with atopic dermatitis

• These foods can induce edema and urticaria and thus cause persistence of the cycle of itch, scratch, and rash

Stress Affects the Skin

• The relationship between psychological stress and atopic disorders is “bidirectional”

• Lack of sleep and physical suffering cause irritability and worsen mood disorders

• Self-reporting of itch severity is increased when depression scores are elevated, similar to the relationship with pain scores

Clay Cleans the Skin

• Some Native American tribes living in areas where water was scarce kept their skin clean with clay

• They simply rubbed the wet clay all over the body and then waited until it dried and dusted it off

Cleaning Inflamed Skin

• Soaking in a lukewarm bath for 10-20 minutes is ideal, or lukewarm showers may be taken if preferred

• Essential oils can be added to the bath after the skin surface is wet

• If even plain water is irritating during acute flare ups, 1 cup of kosher salt added to the water will help

After the Bath

• Lightly pat the skin with a towel and immediately apply an emollient over the entire skin surface to retain moisture

• Application within 3 minutes improves hydration, whereas beyond 3 minutes surface evaporation has a drying effect

• Virgin coconut oil provides added benefits

Assist Detoxification Processes

• The best way to increase elimination through the skin is with a sweat bath

• Start by drinking lots of water or herbal tea

• Sudorific herbs enhance perspiration, such as ginger or yarrow, and move blood to the surface of the skin to help open the sweat glands to promote elimination

Don’t Forget Probiotics!

• Better intestinal health• Prevent development of food allergies

• Reduce severity of eczema

Food sources: yogurt, fermented foods, kefir, cottage cheese, fresh sauerkraut, pickled ginger

Probiotics

• Studies have indicated that probiotics play an important role in preventing or controlling skin allergies in children, recurrent ear infections, dental decay, and chronic diarrhea

• Researchers in Finland administered probiotics to pregnant women and to their babies who were considered at high risk for developing allergies for six months after birth. By the time the children were 2, the probiotic cut the incidence of eczema in half.

Elimination Diet

• Food allergies affect 10% to 40% of children with atopic dermatitis

• Can be stressful (especially for parents)
