Healthy gut, healthy skin: that's why beauty comes from within
If your skin is acting up, the cause may well lie in your gut. Today we know that there is a close link between intestinal flora and skin health.
Blemishes, reddening, allergic reactions and many other unpleasant skin problems can be the consequence when the intestinal flora is out of balance.
Many different bacteria, both “good” and “bad”, make up the intestinal flora, also known as the microbiome. It is important that the “good” bacteria predominate, so that the digestion works as it should and your holistic well-being is not compromised. Good bacteria ensure the optimum use of nutrients and many other things. This, incidentally, is essential for beautiful, healthy skin.
When the intestinal flora is out of balance, and the “bad” bacteria take over, for example as a result of taking antibiotics, experiencing stress or eating unhealthily, you may suffer from various complaints – from digestion problems through being unable to concentrate to skin irritations or even diseases. This means that it is all the more important to look holistically at your health if you experience any such abnormalities, and not to disregard your gut when you do.
Pre- and probiotics will help to maintain the complex ecosystem of billions of bacteria. Probiotics are substances with viable micro-organisms, such as lactobacilli and yeasts. Probiotic foods include yogurt, sauerkraut, cheese and kimchi. Prebiotics are indigestible food components that promote the growth and activity of “good” gut bacteria, such as fibres like inulin and oligofructose. You could say that they are what the beneficial bacteria strains feed on. Prebiotic foods include, for example, oats, asparagus, globe artichokes, bananas and various root vegetables such as Jerusalem artichokes.
Yacon is another root with probiotic properties that aid the digestion – and our Lebensgesundmittel® YaconVera® is 100 percent yacon root! PHARMOS NATUR obtains the sweet tuber from the Peruvian Andes, where it grows under the best possible conditions and is holistically processed while still fresh. Only in this way can the “root of life” unleash its wonderful active substances and supply us with light energy and high vibrations – the best basis for beautiful, radiant and healthy skin.
