Just put some Windex?

Eczema, rash, Atopic dermatitis, nappy rash, hives, each one of us experienced one or more of those diseases in the past.

So how should we treat those itchy nasties?
Rush to the GP for every rash? Or just put some Windex?
Well, from my experience, skin problems are often an allergic reaction to food, drugs and environmental effects.

That’s the way our body works

Our body is a big metabolic machine; it consumes nutrients from food and discards waste.
Our body tries to get rid of the waste. Besides urine and stool our body gets rid of unwanted waste through our eyes, nose and mouth.
The organs that are in charge of discarding waste are our kidneys, the digestive system and the liver. But when our body is filled with toxins, those organs cannot perform sufficiently, and the skin is the organ that takes control. The skin collects the toxins and tries to keep them afar from more important organs.
Most skin diseases are internal diseases that express themselves by causing various skin problems. That’s why we shouldn’t block the skin by smearing it with balms and lotions, because that is just treating the symptoms and not the real cause.
If we’ll block the skin, a deeper illness will appear somewhere else in our body.
So if our skin reacts because we ate some food that is wrong for us, or it’s a reaction to a certain medicine, it means you are sensitive or allergic to some substance, so its your choice-stop consuming or suppress the problem with what ever you want to use-lotions, balms or Windex.

How to get rid of the skin nasties?
Medicine wise, it’s more complicated, approach your GP and consult with her/him. Perhaps a change of medicine will help.

Food wise, that’s perhaps more emotional and therefore irrational, but hey, there are so many interesting, great new foods out there, why not try some?
It’s a drag to be intolerant or allergic to some foods, trust me, I can’t have any dairy or wheat, and I still survive and enjoy a variety of great foods.
And again, the best option, from my point of view is to Detox and heal our body by using a Homeopathic remedy, and a Nutritional plan tailored for our needs.
And you’ll see that you won’t need that Windex again!
