5 key benefits of skin exfoliation
Benefit # 1
Exfoliation cleanses the skin
By exfoliating your skin, you are removing dead skin cells. This clears the way for your body to remove wastes and toxins more efficiently through sweating, through the skin. Lots of dry skin is a sign of detox, and the more of it you remove, the faster the body can remove toxins from your body through it.
Benefit # 2
Exfoliation helps clear cellulite
Exfoliation can help reduce the appearance of cellulite, but you must be diligent with your exfoliation for a few months to notice a change. Cellulite is a collection of stored toxins that got stuck, and cause the skin
to pucker. By exfoliating you will help to move these trapped toxins in your cells, and thus removing cellulite.
Benefit # 3
Exfoliation helps with Lymphatic drainage
Exfoliating your skin upwards towards your heart encourages the flow of lymph fluid. The better and more efficiently you are moving your lymph fluid, the better it is for fighting off pathogens, and keeping your blood and cells clean.
Benefit # 5
Exfoliation helps boost immunity
Because you are encouraging your body to move lymph fluid (which has collected waste materials from your blood) through the lymph nodes (which are sites of concentrated white blood cells) more efficiently, you will be facilitating a more efficient removal of wastes and toxins, as well as a greater exposure of pathogens in the body to those concentrated white blood cell storage areas. The faster lymph fluid is passed through the lymph system and back into the blood to be filtered, to better your immune system will work.
The skin is major source of detoxification.
We all know that our liver is important for detoxing the body. We know that it processes everything we ingest and converts it into safe substances to be cleared from the body. It is not uncommon for the skin to be called the “third kidney” because it plays such a vital role in removing toxins from the body.
Your skin can release up to a pound of waste a day through its semi-permeable membrane.
The skin is often the place where we see imbalances that exist in the body coming to the surface. Keeping your skin clean, clear, and functioning is also vitally important to your health.
Keeping our lymphatic system running smoothly is vitally important to health. There are many things that you can do to keep it running well, like exercise, a clean diet, and drinking lots of water. Another awesome way to stimulate the lymphatic system and help encourage detoxification through the skin is through exfoliation with the brac. 100% cocoon silk exfoliating glove.
