What it all comes down to? A Healthy Scalp [bonus inside]

Natural Ingredients Are Only Beneficial [ IF ] They Are Bioavailable!
I'm pretty sure you agree there's countless hair and scalp products on the market today that state they contain natural ingredients. But far too often, the individual botanical may not convey any noticeable effect.

When I develop or revise any Evoq product, the delivery system and the preservations of it's natural ingredients (yes), but even more so, it's critical the bioactivity is preserved for short and long term results.  

For example:

This is why we invest in Vitamin C Esther (lipid encapsulated) versus ascorbic acid, (vitamin c form that goes rancid upon oxygenation).


So.... how's YOUR scalp? 

​​When it comes to your scalp and the extension thereof [ HAIR ] .....

Causes of dandruff and tips with essential oils

The best essential oils for dandruff will depend on the underlying cause of your dandruff.

What are the triggers?  Stress?   Diet?    Lifestyle?

Recommended Essential Oils include:

Geranium, juniper, lavender, rosemary, sage, and lemon scented tea tree.

If your dandruff is the result of fungus, Kasia Lemon Scented Tea Tree oil is  your best choice. If your scalp is oilyCedarwood and juniper  may be useful.

For a dry, flaky scalp, you can try chamomile,  lavender or sandalwood.

If you want to use one oil at a time, add a few drops to your shampoo.  Kasia Organic Salon team recommends your choice of essential oils with Jojoba oil, and/or scalp treatments with Kasia Restore Hair Oil.

Causes of Dandruff

Truly, the cause of seborrheic dermatitis is unknown and can have a variety of catalysts.

A relationship to hormones and  yeast infections has been a consistent possible causation of guests at Kasia Organic Salon.

The primary cause of dandruff is thought to be a yeast.

• Over activity of oil glands is another possible cause. Shampooing daily with a sulfate free agent will eliminate the oil and help prevent the dandruff.  Do not over strip the hair.

• Shampooing in too hot of water may strip out the natural oils and dry out your scalp. It's best to use tempid and/or cooler water to help close the pores, which will relieve the flaking problem.

• Avoid PVC and alcohol-based styling products as they tend to dry out the scalp. The styling gels, sprays and mousses can build up on your scalp.

• Excess Stress can trigger or exacerbate dandruff very easily.

• A high sugar intake may be another major cause. Sugar requires B vitamins in order to metabolize and can cause a deficiency. To compensate take a high potency B-complex to relieve the dandruff.    Diabetes and the high sugar levels result in dehydration of the tissues as the body flushes out fluids in an attempt to rid itself of the sugar. One of the end results is dry skin.

• People on low or no fat diets may be deficient in unsaturated fats called essential fats, such as omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids

Clearing Skin Disorders Naturally * Eczema, Dry Skin, & Dandruff

The Kasia Team is committed to restoring the lasting foundations of beauty with the encouragement of a  nutrient dense lifestyle whether that be nutrition, supplementation, or topically -   providing the essential building blocks for clear, healthy skin and hair.

Let's step into some "Functional Medicine/Beauty" and get to the ROOT of  Clearing Skin Disorders Naturally

Key points

1. The skin is the largest and most visible organ of the body.

2. Heredity, diet, toxins, and allergen factors involved.

3. Detoxification is essential for people with skin disorders. The liver is the major organ involved.

4. Proper balance of the liver, lungs, kidneys, and digestive system maintains healthy skin.

Natural Acne Solutions

1. Probiotic +  (Acidophilus & Bifidus)  or high quality plain yogurt & kefir

2. Sulfur rich foods: eggs, fish, garlic, broccoli, and or MSM supplements

3. Vitamin A 25,000-100,000 (use with caution at higher levels and short term for a month or so)

4. Silica

5. Pantothenic acid 250-1000 mg

6. Zinc 30-60 mg

Eczema

1. Inflammatory skin reaction characterized by itching, redness, blisters, or dryness.

2. A sign of toxins from inside your body. Treating with creams is not addressing the root causes of toxicity.

3. Detoxify to expel the toxins, thus preventing the problem from returning.

4. Homeopathic remedies: Silica, Sulphur, Graphites, Psorinum

5. Dietary factors/allergens common

Psoriasis

1. Auto-immune, inflammatory skin condition. Caused by faulty immune system which over-reacts and

accelerates the growth of skin cells. Normally skin cells mature and are shed every 30 days. In psoriasis,

skin cells mature in 3 to 6 days, and pile up.

2. There are five types. Some get a related form called “psoriatic arthritis,” of the joints.

3. Plaque psoriasis is the most common type. It appears as patches of raised, reddish skin covered by silvery-white scale. These patches, or plaques, frequently form on the elbows, knees, lower back, and scalp.

Dry Skin and Dandruff

1. Water: 8-12 glasses pure

2. EFA’s: Flax seed oil, Cod liver oil, fatty fish

3. Use filter in shower to reduce chlorine

4. Minerals: sodium (sea salt/ Nat Mur) and potassium

5. Sugar is a culprit so need to eliminate. Also need to increase B-complex

6. Gall Bladder? Liver? Candida?

Atopic Eczema

Atopic eczema is associated with a genetic predisposition to non-regulation and imbalance of the immune system. People with atopic allergies lack cellular immune defences (TH1) and have too many humoral immune defences (TH2). The cause of this is most likely to be environmental stress – poor diet, pollution etc. Excessive cleanliness is also cited as a cause of atopic disease – this cause is known as 'The Hygiene Hypothesis'. The goal for treatment, therefore, is to rebalance the immune system to have an equal strength of TH1 and TH2 defences. Treatment possibilities include:

• Correcting faulty digestion;

• Increasing the ratio of omega-3 fats in our diets;

• Boosting glutathione and antioxidant levels. Glutathione is the most important antioxidant. Others include selenium, vitamin E, alpha lipoic acid (ALA) and NAC (N-Acetylcysteine).

• Checking for low stomach hydrochloric acid. Supplementing Betaine Hydrochloride;

• Supplementing  Probiotics

• Supplementing with vitamins, herbs and minerals, including magnesium, zinc, iron, manganese calcium, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and B-vitamins especially B6;

• Increasing intake of monunsaturated fats: found mainly in nuts and olive oil;

• Reducing numbers of yeasts and bacteria on the skin and in the body;

• Exposure to moderate UVA: sunlight improves atopic eczema;

• Increasing exercise: this balances the immune response, gets oxygenated blood flowing, and improves appetite, digestion, sleep and endorphin release;

• Controlling stress: stress exhausts the hormonal system, causing worsening atopic systems. The adrenal gland releases cortisol when the body is under stress, overworking the endocrine system.
