0:22 Causes of dry skin: • Moisturizers: They have certain things in them that dry your skin, like alcohol • Alcohol • Petroleum products • Medication: psych drugs, high blood pressure medication, there are 500 drugs that have dry skin as their symptom • Diabetes • Mineral oil • Autoimmune conditions: lupus • City water: contains fluoride and chlorine and all sorts of chemicals • Soap and/or detergents: detergents pull out oil • Gut issues • Liver issues • Menopause 3:14 Causes of dry eyes: • Vitamin A deficiency • Gallbladder problems and/or a lack of bile • A lack of the active form of vitamin A (retinol) in the diet • A lack of friendly microbes 5:29 The best source of retinol (the active form of vitamin A) is liver, egg yolks and cod liver oil 5:59 Menopause and dryness: the first thing you want to try is a DHEA product which is kind of like a building block for hormones. You shouldn't take a lot, you just need a little bit. If you take too much you can actually raise hormones higher than it should be. 7:36 Cause of dry mouth: • Saliva deficiency • Antibiotics: they can increase the risk of getting candida which can also give you dry mouth. If you have candida you absolutely need to get rid of all sugar in the diet • Stress • COVID • A deficiency of zinc • Alcohol • Fluoride treatment and fluoride in your toothpaste • High-carb diets 10:16 The best remedy for dry skin: combine the following • Lanolin: lanolin is a natural substance that sheep produce that keep their skin and wool nice and protected • Vitamin E oil Put a little bit of lanolin in a dish with a couple drops of vitamin E oil, mix it up good and rub it into your hands and other parts of your body and you're going to notice a great moisturizer effect especially in the winter.

Be very careful with DHEA! I did this to raise my hormones and just a little. I had been told my progesterone was crash low so would have tried anything to feel better. So I took small amounts of DHEA and within a few weeks my hair was falling out in shed loads. After much research I noticed that many women were experiencing massive hair loss which unfortunately did not grow back after stopping the supplement., however the hair shedding did stop. This has been true for me to. It stopped falling out after I stopped DHEA but my hair has not grown back in. I have really thin looking hair now and I am now trying to figure out how I can resolve this.

Boiling the kettle and allowing the water to cool will help but not getting rid of chemicals. Alternatively, set up rain water catchment, but you’ll need to treat the water, such as filtration and UV lights, maybe boiling the water before ingestion, which includes or personal care (teeth brushing, bathing or washing, washing machine and hand wash) washing food/food prep etc. see your local gov advice on rain water treatment, as you may have alternatives to rain water, such as bore holes….any water need to be tested before use.

I have to point out one factor which I didn't see mentioned in the video that could also be causing any dry skin/mouth/eyes problems: dry air. Usually for example in office buildings the ventilators remove moisture from the air, causing the air moisture to fall to somewhere around 20%. That is perhaps even the wanted result so that molds don't start growing, but nevertheless it's enough to cause not only dry skin but also actual eye irritation. I feel like I'm constantly dehydrated and my eyes and skin are dry in air that has less than 30% air moisture. As far as what is the optimal air moisture range, I think it's somewhere between 40 - 60%, while all the way down to 30% can be tolerated. Anything below 30% is going to cause you some of these problems though, for sure!

I live in the UK . I feel like you , but a big problem for GPs is that the appoints have to be kept to maybe 10 mins maximum and as there is a shortage of doctors in many surgeries here , if you have a few problems there's just not enough time to discuss them . This was happening with me . I have Fibromyalgia which carries a host of ailments including debilitating CFS which I have sort of adapted to over many years , however a new , different pain began which was agony and made much worse because FMS is a 'heightened pain' syndrome that magnifies pain . I had lots of blood tests , but the one thing I wasn't tested for was Gallbladder . The pain then became so intolerable I was sent for an ultrasound scan which showed that I had many large gallstones and the Gallbladder itself would have burst if it hadn't been detected . I had to have emergency surgery to remove it and I take bile salts now to help with digestion . I am much better now , but obviously still have the FMS and CFS . I would like to know more about which Vegan supplements might help . 🤍

About 4 years ago I learned I have chronic low cortiso, and your description tells me I have had the problem my whole life. But the endocrinologist did one test and said it wasn't Addisons then sent me away saying she thinksbit is rhematoid issue. The Rhematoid doctor won't see me unless the referring doctor diagnoses me specifically first. I have the severe dry eye issues you described that caused scar tissue to build up around the edges of my eyeball. It comes and goes and I see the pattern that itvis related to whever I am exposed to food allergens or substances that cause me inflammation. I have to keep eyedrops on my bed so that when I wake up and cabt open my lids I have to use the drops to gently pry them open. My blood tests always show vitamins are normal, but I continue to lose weight from malnutrition. My drs over the years say secondary Sjogrens, but I pay ttention to when it happens and there are multiple triggers all having to do with causing inflammation. my skin and hair is always dry also, and I have Hashimotos. I have a hemangiona on my liver now and cysts on the bottom of my kidney, and Im down o 103lbs bony and starving. I began taking A chewables last minth that seem to help on occasion, but still the dryness comes and goes. My blood also thickens as part of a hereditary undiagnosed disorder and when my blood thickens large and small veins rupture. A couple years ago I began experiencing transient stroke symptoms that only happened when veins ruptured, these affected nerves in my face causing pain and prtial paralysis that is sonewhat improving now - caused by a mean person exposing me to food allergens on purpose. I constantly have diabetes or insulin resistance symptoms nd occasionally my blood ugar levels are running a little high or low. And yet, my doctor still tells me that all my labs are nornal ... except when they are suddenly not temporarily. I pray some times for death, but God keeps saying no.

Hi Julie, you may want to check out information on Boron and Iodine. Boron deficiency may influence oestrogen and Iodine is required for healthy sexual organs. I paste some info on Iodine below.. IODINE You may want to your own research on Iodine and Iodine deficiency. Iodine is required for health and receiving chlorine, fluorine and/or bromine will displace iodine. Increasing your iodine may reverse this. Please note I am not a medical doctor and this is not medical advice. Not only your thyroid, but also sexual organs, breasts need iodine. Every cell in your body has a special iodine transporter to allow for iodine to get into that cell! Lack of iodine may have implications like goiter, but also increased risk of breast cancer, ovary cancer, PCOS, prostate cancer. Lack of iodine also may result in dry skin, brittle hair and dryness due to lack of saliva. So, this is missing in the overview... The current RDA for iodine is 150 micrograms, which may be too low. I recommend Dr. Brownstein and Flechas. Also Dr. Berry has good info on Iodine. Iodine intake in original Japanese diet may be as high as 3000 micrograms or even higher. Do your own research! Make sure you get the minimum of 150 mcg daily.

if you mean creams like lotions etc? You probably don't need them, especially if you are getting your nutrients and are decently healthy(use extremely minimal if you really need). They are probably causing more harm than good. If you are drying up after not putting on lotion, like after a shower, you are probably already dependent on them and it might take a few months to feel normal and not need them anymore.

Dry or damaged skin: I've just made my first batch of homemade soap, using tallow, coconut oil and olive oil. You can probably get fat trimmings from your butcher and render your own tallow. The soap recipes typically include what is called super-fat, additional fat that is not converted into soap, up to 5%. With no other chemicals (apart from optional scent and color) and the additional fat content, these soaps should be healthy and good for skin protection. The natural oils in the soap should help to replace your skin oils that are removed by the washing action. But it's important to not wash excessively with soaps or detergents, in order to maintain your skins natural oil protection. Your skins natural oils are the best for it's protection. If you're off the extreme carbohydrate SAD diet your skin should have a majority of good bacteria that eliminate the bad bacteria, so that bad odor (BO) never occurs. Occasional washing is only required for hygiene purposes and to remove the buildup of dirt and grime. Commercial soaps may be made from fats that are not optimal/natural, and usually include additional chemicals for reasons of economy and long shelf life, that may be detrimental to your health. The soap making is not difficult, I've much enjoyed my first attempts. Hope this helps.

I have a random question that you might be able to answer. I am trying to exfoliate my skin to remove a fading spray tan. I was going to try diluting some apple cider vinegar in warm water, and use an exfoliating glove. Do you have any suggestions?
@amisoftau26592 жыл бұрын
@@MK-ih6wp "how to remove spray tan" I've no experience with that. A google search lists a few remedies. This is probably what I'd try.. “Mix lemon juice with a little baking soda or baby oil. Saturate the skin with the mixture, then let it sit for about five minutes before removing with a cleansing wipe-this will erase the tan entirely,”. Note that baby oils are often made with mineral oils so definitely not recommended (especially for babies!?). I'd use coconut oil or olive oil with the lemon juice and baking soda. Tell us if it works :). p.s. I'm getting about an hour or more of sun every day the sun is out. Dr Berg has excellent videos on the health benefits of sun exposure, with especially the resulting VitD being hugely important for maximizing health. I'm well tanned so will never need or use fake tans. In general ALL modern health care and skin care "products" (especially cosmetics) are unnecessary and potentially damaging, but I guess you know that. Cheers.

I did if and keto. My problem was that even with a normal diet, I would miss the amount of salt I need (which led to headaches, low pressure... you name it). After changing, the result was a really dry mouth, and i mean REALLY dry even if i hydrate myself. Tried all the combinations: less salt and more water, viceversa, etc...nothing worked. Now I eat a small fruit a day, still eating keto food and doing If 18:6 or 20:4, based also on the period of my cycle (upper the amount of food a little bit and good carbs 2 weeks before period, based on new info I got). That one fruit seems enough to keep saliva in my mouth. My two cents (I have not diabetes or other condition apparently, still investigating for thyroid...). Still losing weight 👍🏻
