Alitura Theory

Although wrinkles are part of a natural and normal aging—and certainly should not make one feel less of themselves—wrinkly skin, nevertheless, is undesirable for most. Some may consider wrinkles a sign of strength and endurance, but most consider them aesthetically displeasing. For the latter group, there is hope for renewed skin. You see, the pathology of aging may be objective, but the rate of aging is very subjective. Meaning, our actions—specifically sleep habits, activity levels, stress, and of course nutritional habits—all affect the quality and rate of how we age. In fact, there is clinical research and scientific evidence that indicates the ability to delay aging and even reverse skin conditions through proper nutrition. The various nutrients in our foods can help with everything from wrinkles and sagging skin to pigmentation issues and more.

One of the first rules of holistic skin care is, “if you wouldn’t eat it, don’t put it on your skin.” Therefore it becomes of utmost importance to carefully observe the labels of your skincare products, just as you would your food. By now, most of us have confronted the fact that the FDA has not done the most honest job of regulating what is considered safe for consumption – this also applies to skincare and beauty products. The truth is, most commercial skincare and hygiene products are incredibly toxic. There are literally thousands of chemicals in commercial products, all of which are absorbed directly into the bloodstream once applied to your skin. You might be wondering how it is possible for unnatural and harmful ingredients to make their way into these products. The simple answer is that large corporations actually have the ability to freely use any raw ingredients they like without government evaluation or approval. In short, the skincare industry is highly unregulated. 

Not many people make the connection between their skin quality and the health of their liver. In Chinese Medicine and other holistic bodies of medicine, it is common knowledge that each organ system connects to each other.  The skin and liver are two organs that are very intimately connected.  Our skin’s glow is a direct reflection of our liver function.

While the severity of the acne can differ, the fact of the matter is that a very large percentage of people today experience less than optimal skin.

Throughout the centuries, people have stumbled upon several natural ways to keep their skin looking young. One of the most recent and profound findings in natural, anti-aging remedies, is the discovery of plant stem cells. Using our modern technology, cells can be extracted from plants and cultivated in the laboratory to multiply their molecular potency by 1000 times to bring out the highest concentration possible, which allows the final product to give instant results. In the most basic sense, plant stem cells are literally extracted stem cells of plants. Moreover, a stem cell is postulated to be responsible for the renewal and regeneration of tissues (cells create tissues, tissues create organs, and organs create organisms).  Because of their regenerative abilities, stem cells are some of the most important in the body, without them, our cells would not renew. The more stem cells the body has, the faster and quicker the regeneration process. 

No matter what type of skin care regimen you maintain, you may find that your skin still does not look as good as you would like. You may fight problems with acne and blemishes constantly, and you may have spent hundreds of dollars’ on different skin care products without positive results.

What you want is an all-natural method to help your skin. When you come to us at Alitura Naturals, you can try our natural clay mask and see just how a clay mask will work well for you.

We all take our skin for granted each day, thinking it will just take care of itself. Even though you wash regularly, eat healthily and exercise, the truth is that your skin cannot do it all and needs some help so it stays looking its best, feeling great and maintains good health and strength. Even if you take steps to care for your skin, you still must deal with all the chemicals, pollutants and allergens in the air around you each day, which can clog and wear down your skin. Add that to the chemicals in much of the food you eat, the makeup you use and perhaps even your soaps and cleansers, and your skin must fight more each day than you realize. That is why taking steps at the end of each day can be important to you, and why a night cream can help make a difference for you.

I'm not going to be winning any food-plating competitions anytime soon but let's focus on the important part, the nutrition.  When I want to give my digestive system a break after eating a lot of meat or fish protein, I will go with softer protein, like eggs, for a few days. I really believe (barring any allergies or food sensitivity issues) that pasture raised - organic eggs should be categorized as a superfood. As you will notice below, the yolks are still intact by cooking them sunny side up. This retains the great fatty acid composition and mineral content and preserving the vital nutrients that good pastured egg yolks contain.

The more you learn about holistic health, the more you realize less is truly more. When it comes to our skin this is especially true. Our entire body does a really extraordinary job at self-regulating. It seems the only thing we need to do, is get out of its way.

Typically, when the body is healthy, clean, free of toxicity and balanced, our skin has a way of regulating itself. Our skin is covered with trillions of cells of bacteria and this microbiome, when balanced, keeps the skin protected, healthy and even clean.
