New for Baby – Natural and Organic Baby Products

“It is clear that nothing should be applied to the skin of any baby without careful consideration of the potential hazards.” Reference: D.J. Atherton and A. Rook, Textbook of Dermatology.

Have you ever noticed with wonderment the extraordinary softness, clarity and beauty of the skin of babies? Babies’ skin actually has different characteristics to adult skin. Looking after your babies skin needs is even more important as their vulnerability makes it easier for babies to suffer negative health affects from toxin absorption.

Some ways that babies’ skin is different to adults are:

• higher surface area (of skin) to weight ratio
  
• greater absorption of skin products due to skin surface to body weight ratio
  
• higher penetrability of fat soluble substances (including chemicals and toxins)
  
• less developed immune system which means a greater susceptibility to infections and irritants
  Reference A. Khaiat, PHD.

Protecting your babies’ skin and health is easy when you know how! The NSA suggests the following for babies’ skin:

• Ensure all skin care products are both necessary and completely free of toxins and chemicals.
  
• Protection from harmful UV rays with all over tight weave 100% cotton clothing and/or bunny rugs
  
• Adequate hydration and moisturization
  
• Protection from environmental irritants and pollution
  Reference A. Khaiat, PHD.
