September 3rd, 2008
Advanced humans science created an imbalance in nature. The man created unbalanced nature of these enemies allies. Environmental pollution affects our health and our skin.
Air
The first thing that makes man is breathing at birth. Since we are born until we die we breathe all the time. Breathing is a symbol of life itself. If you live in a big city air is probably contaminated. Cars unloaded long amounts of gases in the air especially if there are no laws to prevent it. Polluted air causes many respiratory problems. Damages the skin to clog pores and the toxins to harm our health.
You can not escape from this situation so we must learn to live with it. When you take holidays in places where you can breathe fresh air. In some cities, pollution is so high that there is like breathing smoke 10 cigarettes a day. You can help your body to neutralize these effects by taking antioxidant vitamins such as vitamin C.
You can also follow some simple recommendations as if you can avoid if gasoline leaded gasoline, check your car so you do not mind constantly emit harmful gases. If your city is using a high-pollution mask around the nose and mouth when you go out cycling or running.
The sun
The sun makes us grow old. As the damage to the ozone layer is getting longer the sun is most dangerous because without the protection of the ozone layer many harmful sun rays enter the Earth’s atmosphere. The color determines the sensitivity to the sun. The darker skin is more resistant to the sun. The lighter-skinned people have a higher incidence of skin cancer.
The sun can cause blemishes and freckles so you have to use sunscreen and avoid abuse of sunbathing. The most effective sunscreens are those of PSF 15 or more, many experts believe that over 15 is not absorbed through the skin.
Water
Water is a wonderful, vital for life. Contaminants in water have forced our government to add chemicals to purify water. Not all water is pure. The drinking water in cities and contains a lot of chlorine in some cases may contain lead and copper. Chlorine dries skin and in some cases irritating. Water in many places water is treated, so the sewage is treated with chemicals and filtration media to be recycled.
Our bodies are made mostly by water. The water helps to have better digestion and a healthy kidneys that helps to remove toxins from the body.
The water is wonderful for the skin. If you take a lot of water these moist your skin naturally. If you do not drink the water and dehydrating your skin withered your internal organs.
