As I am preparing for a presentation on healthy skin some thoughts come to mind that I wanted to share.
Did you know that your skin is the largest organ in your body? I'm not sure most people do know this. Since it is our largest organ keeping it healthy would seem prudent. Our skin protects us from infection, bacteria and toxins. It is our first defense against infections entering our bodies.
Now, of course, genetics play a big role in the skin you were born with. But there are other things in our control that affect our skin. Our overall health, exercise, nutrition and sun exposure are up to us. These things will all factor in to how our skin ages. We should hydrate our skin daily by drinking plenty of water and using a nourishing moisturizer.
Here's to having good, healthy skin!
