Skin is the first thing others notice about us, and it often shows what is happening inside the body. Dull, dry, acne-prone or inflamed skin can reflect diet, sleep, hormones, stress or an underlying medical condition.
Habits for healthy skin
- Eat well. Fruit, vegetables, nuts, seeds, pulses and oily fish provide vitamins A, C and E, zinc and omega-3 fats that support skin repair.
- Stay hydrated. Drink water through the day and limit sugary drinks and alcohol.
- Protect from the sun. Use sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher, wear a hat and avoid peak sun hours.
- Cleanse gently. Wash with a mild cleanser and avoid over-scrubbing; moisturise after bathing.
- Sleep enough. Skin repairs itself overnight, and lack of sleep shows quickly.
- Do not smoke. Smoking breaks down collagen and speeds up wrinkles.
- Manage stress, which can trigger acne, eczema and psoriasis.
When to see a doctor
Persistent rashes, a mole that changes, non-healing sores, severe acne, or sudden changes in skin colour or texture deserve medical evaluation. Homeopathic treatment is individualised and is used for chronic skin conditions as part of a whole-person plan.
