For awhile now, it’s been noticed that food and environmental allergies or sensitivities can be impediment to a healthy skin. Medical science also discovered a link between an intestinal wall and sensitivities. Fragments or substances that should stay in the intestines and be excreted can end up in the bloodstream, joints and other organs. Some of those “toxic fragments” even resemble parts of our body structure or microorganisms. Considering all the truly unnatural chemicals in our food and environment, it’s hardly surprising that body may become confused and many skin problems may be a result of such toxic fragments.

If your skin problem is obstinate, I’d suggest a “full-on naturopathic” treatment of a short fast or special diet, avoidance of all chemicals (within reason), special baths, whole foods and a month or two of high-dose, quality Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacteria supplements. Then you may be more responsive to remedies.
