Dermatin - Helpful For Dry Skin

By replenishing your body with the synergistic blend of natural ingredients found in Dermatin, the underlying nutrient deficiencies known to aggravate eczema (and its many troublesome symptoms) are safely and effectively addressed.

With the administration of Progressive Health's eczema formula, you may begin to regulate inflammatory processes throughout the body, while seeing marked improvements in skin function and appearance.

When taken in conjunction with positive lifestyle changes, Dermatin addresses factors critical for your eczema management - promoting a healing of affected skin, reducing symptoms, preventing potential skin damage, and preventing "flares."

The ingredients in Dermatin include:

• Selenium - People with eczema have been shown to be deficient in Selenium. Addressing deficiencies of this nutrient are important as this anti-oxidant may help fight free radical build-up in the skin which could reduce inflammation.
• Zinc - Essential for the functioning of over 300 enzymes and also supports the immune system, and skin health.
• Omega 3 - In a 12-week double-blind study, Omega-3 was shown to be helpful for reducing inflammation, itching, and scaling of the skin.
• Artichoke - Helps regulate the production of inflammatory substances that play a role in eczema.
• Grape Seed Ext. - This potent antioxidant may inhibit the destruction of collagen structures which support the health of small capillaries that supply energy to the body's tissues.
• Milk Thistle - Histamines are known to cause inflammation and are supported primarily by the liver. Milk Thistle supports liver defenses and may inhibit inflammatory substances and histamines in the liver.
• Olive Leaf Ext. - Contains an important antioxidant called "oleuropein" which can help reduce the inflammatory effects of food allergies that contribute to eczema.
• Gamma Linolenic Acid - An important fatty acid, GLA may be helpful for keeping inflammation under control, improving skin roughness, and normalizing blood chemistry. Those with atopic eczema have been shown to be deficient in Gamma Linolenic Acid.
• BioCell Collagen Type II - Supports healthy skin function and appearance. May boost skin elasticity and support proper wound healing.
• Hylaronic Acid - This is a structural component of the skin and may be helpful for increasing hydration in your skin as well.
