How does gut health affect skin condition?

Decem­ber 12, 2016, 08:46

Does your reflec­tion in the mir­ror stop mak­ing you hap­py? Rash­es, irri­ta­tions, open pores, dark cir­cles under the eyes, dull com­plex­ion, dry­ness, peel­ing — these trou­bles may indi­cate a mal­func­tion in the gas­troin­testi­nal tract. What should be done to nor­mal­ize the func­tion­ing of the gas­troin­testi­nal tract and restore health and beau­ty to the skin?

The appear­ance of our skin is a reflec­tion of our health and the result of our lifestyle and diet. Con­stant stress, a seden­tary lifestyle, poor ecol­o­gy, exces­sive pas­sion for refined, fat­ty foods — all these “charms” of civ­i­liza­tion neg­a­tive­ly affect our health, pri­mar­i­ly on the gas­troin­testi­nal tract. The bal­ance of microflo­ra is dis­turbed, pathogens begin to mul­ti­ply active­ly, releas­ing tox­ins.

The skin, as an impor­tant excre­to­ry organ, takes on an addi­tion­al mis­sion — to remove harm­ful sub­stances that poi­son the body. And then acne, come­dones may appear on it, it becomes dull, too oily, or vice ver­sa, exces­sive­ly dry and irri­tat­ed. And no, even the most expen­sive cos­met­ics and salon pro­ce­dures can make your skin healthy and beau­ti­ful until you solve the prob­lem from the inside.

What do you need to do to have beautiful, supple, radiant skin?

Nor­mal­ize the intesti­nal microflo­ra and detox­i­fy the body. To do this, you need to exclude fried, smoked foods, sweets from the diet, con­sume dai­ly fer­ment­ed milk prod­ucts (kefir, aci­dophilus) and fiber-rich fruits and veg­eta­bles. Dietary fiber has a pos­i­tive effect on the gas­troin­testi­nal tract. They, like a sponge, cleanse the body of tox­ins, tox­ins and oth­er harm­ful sub­stances. In addi­tion, fiber acts as a pre­bi­ot­ic, cre­at­ing favor­able con­di­tions for the growth of its own ben­e­fi­cial intesti­nal microflo­ra and improv­ing metab­o­lism in the body. For exam­ple, the com­po­si­tion of the mod­ern soft drug LEPIKOL includes two types of dietary fiber:

• Psyl­li­um husk Plan­ta­go ova­ta forsk (psyl­li­um). Due to its abil­i­ty to absorb and retain water (40 times its own weight), get­ting into the intestines, psyl­li­um increas­es in vol­ume and forms a jel­ly-like mucous mass. It soft­ens and increas­es the vol­ume of intesti­nal con­tents, stim­u­lates intesti­nal peri­stal­sis and ensures a com­fort­able and reg­u­lar bow­el move­ment. This is very impor­tant, because often it is con­sti­pa­tion that becomes the main cause of intox­i­ca­tion of the body and dete­ri­o­ra­tion of the skin con­di­tion.
• Inulin from chico­ry root, which improves car­bo­hy­drate and lipid metab­o­lism, which in turn also has a pos­i­tive effect on skin health.

LEPICOL also con­tains PROBIOTICS, which help to nor­mal­ize the bal­ance of intesti­nal microflo­ra and increase immu­ni­ty, and PREBIOTICS, which stim­u­late the growth of ben­e­fi­cial microflo­ra in the intes­tine, and also improve metab­o­lism.

LEPIKOL helps to nor­mal­ize bow­el func­tion dur­ing diets and ther­a­peu­tic star­va­tion, and is also a pow­er­ful enterosor­bent, binds and removes tox­ic prod­ucts from the body. LEPICOL is also use­ful for con­sti­pa­tion, intesti­nal dys­bac­te­rio­sis, con­di­tions in which there is a need to soft­en the con­sis­ten­cy of the stool.
