NORTH AMERICAN
PRECIS SYNDICATE
Winter weather depletes skin,
but not merely because of low tem-
peratures. Low humidity is equally
to blame, so be sure to protect and
replenish skin in the following ways:
nA drop in temperature and hu-
midity can lead to depleted, chapped,
even painfully sore skin.
nThe frst step: Visit a profession-
al skin therapist for a personalized
“baseline” assessment of the skin’s
condition and needs. “A licensed skin
therapist will examine the skin using
visual cues, under magnifcation and
her fngertips, while asking questions
about your lifestyle and product rou-
tine,” explains Annet King, director
of Global Education for The Inter-
national Dermal Institute. “Derm-
alogica’s system for this examination
and skin coaching session is called
Face Mapping and it’s offered at no
charge, at more than 7,000 locations
across the U.S.A., with no obligation
to purchase products.”
n Cleanse with tepid water and
a creamy liquid cleanser. Skip hot
water and antibacterial soaps as they
can damage skin.
nBe aware that petroleum-based
products may exacerbate dryness
and don’t let skin “breathe.”
n While aggressive scrubs can
cause microlacerations to the skin,
resulting in more water loss, micro-
fne powder exfoliants are safe for
even sensitive skin, gently loosening
and lifting dulling cell debris from
the surface without causing irrita-
tion. After cleansing and microfoliat-
ing, blot and pat skin to dry — don’t
rub.
nArtifcial fragrances, especially
in high-foaming bath and shower
products and “perfume-y” body lo-
tions, are drying and possibly sensi-
tizing to the skin.
n Hydrate in layers. Hyaluronic
acid in serum form draws airborne
moisture to the skin. Use it to layer
beneath moisturizers to prevent
dehydration. After bathing, apply
body lotion to warm, damp, freshly
cleansed skin. Add a few pumps of an
aromatherapy massage oil to make
your body lotion extra soothing and
comforting.
n Nourish and protect with bo-
tanicals. Bioactive moisturizing in-
gredients, shea butter, cocoa seed
butter, avocado oil and vitamin E
deliver soothing and hydrating lipids
and hydrators to skin, even in rugged
conditions.
To fnd a nearby licensed skin
therapist and receive a complimen-
tary Face Mapping skin analysis
and other professional services, visit
www.dermalogica.com or call (310)
900-4000.
Tips on protection against harsh weather
CARING: A professional skin therapist provides a client with a compli-
mentary Face Mapping skin analysis. In addition to a consultation, a skin
health regimen should include reinforcing and replenishing the weakened
skin barrier function. (NAPSI Photo)

Cancer Prevention Begins with Your Personal Choices
I have been trying to write a series on Head Problems, but keep getting side tracked by other good stuff. The
following is information stolen from a column by Dr. Mercola. Cancer rates are increasing, in spite of great specialists
and much research. Even the conservative American Cancer Society states that one-third of cancer deaths are linked to
poor diet, physical inactivity, and carrying excess weight. So changing lifestyle can go a very long way toward becoming
one less statistic as we aim toward perfect health:
Normalize your vitamin D3 levels with safe amounts of sun exposure and supplementation if needed. Ask your Dr.
about testing your Vitamin D3 levels.
Control your insulin levels by limiting your intake of processed foods and sugars as much as possible. Avoid High
Fructose Corn Syrup.
Get appropriate exercise. Exercise works because it drives insulin levels down.
Get appropriate amounts of plant based omega-3 fats. (See the Budwig Diet)
Eat according to your blood type and APO E genetic type. You will hear more about the APO E gene testing and
nutrition in the near future.
Eat as many vegetables as you comfortably can. Ideally, they should be fresh, organic, raw, or steamed. Avoid deep
frying any foods. Cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, brussels sprouts, etc.) have been identified as potent anti-cancer
preventers. The brighter the color the better the vegetable is for you. Avoid White, Eat Bright.
Maintain an ideal body weight. Get enough high-quality sleep.
Reduce your exposure to environmental toxins like pesticides, household chemical cleaners,
synthetic air fresheners, hand sanitizers, and air pollution.
Never start smoking, stop if you do smoke, and avoid second hand smoke.
Have tools to manage stress. Stress can activate a genetic predisposition to develop cancer.
The CDC states that 85 percent of disease is caused by emotions. If this is true, then it is more
important than all the other physical things listed here. So make sure that stress management is
addressed. Relaxation, Meditation, Yoga, Tai Chi, Emotional Freedom Technique, the Silva Method
are some tools you can learn. A spiritual practice of your choice is extremely important.
The above are some ways to reduce your cancer risks. There are many more, but these will go
a long way toward giving you a good, long healthy life.
Put Your Health in Your Own Hands. Bob Huttinga PA-C. 989-352-6500.
