Acne is a skin condition comprising of inflammation due to excess oil or sebum produced by the glands together with dead skin pores. These two in combination, clog the pores resulting in inflammation, which may become purulent whiteheads or blackheads due to bacteria in the area. If the inflamed or clogged pore runs deep into the skin, this area may form a cyst. The cyst typically is only painful or colored when it becomes infected. There are many cases of acne, falling into four categories, namely: bacteria, hereditary, hormonal, or clogged pores. Acne typically affects 80-90% of adolescents of both sexes, boys more than girls. Acne usually affects the face, chest back and sometimes- upper arm. Acne can also be found in infants due to the activation of sebaceous glands in uterus . Acne can be a chronic problem or resolve spontaneously after 4-5 years as noted in 70% of acne sufferers. The incidence of acne at age 40 years is about 1% for men and 5% for women. Acne is not caused by dirt, a diet with too much sugar caffeine although these can aggravate it. Other factors that can affect acne include over exposure to certain weathers, stress, hormonal changes, oily skin, endocrine conditions, certain tumors and response to certain medications or drugs. Since acne can not be prevented. Dead Sea products (FORTUNE Soap, Scrubs, Mud Masks, Lotions & Creams as well as the bath salts) which have a high sulfur content are useful in the cleaning required to purify the skin of acne sufferers. Antibiotics and hormonal or steroid medication are prescribed in severe cases; however other management is always advisable first as these medications all have negative side effects.

Skin natural fatty layer also reduces with age, causing the skin inward; Added to all these factors is the constant pull of gravity, which increases the sagging of the skin. Aging also leads to the appearance of the wrinkling (which also appears due to long exposure to the sun) and our skin also becomes more susceptible to irritation.

The Dead Sea
Thousands of years ago, people believed the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea had the power to heal. Today, modern medical science has discovered considerable truth in that ancient notion. We invite you to try these Fortunes from the Dead Sea for yourself. THE HEALING POWERS OF THE DEAD SEA FORTUNES
Thousands of years ago nomads knew about the healing powers of The Dead Sea and its minerals and their caravans camped along its shores to enjoy the soothing baths. Royalty traveled long distances through the desert with their entourage in order to take advantage of this natural fountain of youth. Because of its secluded location the Dead Sea has been spared from all the pollution and adverse environmental impacts to the air, water, and soil. Calcium, potassium, magnesium, sodium, as well as iron, sulfur, phosphorus, and chlorine are just some of the substances found in both human cells as well as Dead Sea Minerals. Replenishing these minerals to the skin has a very beneficial effect rejuvenating and revitalizing today’s stressed skin. THE DEAD SEA

More to know about the Dead Sea Fortunes
A study involving a European occupational therapist suffering from psoriasis who had obtained compensation from her health insurance in order to undergo therapy at the Dead Sea has lead to great interest in health funds in Denmark, Germany and other European Countries. This has resulted in their subsidizing treatment from the Dead Sea for people suffering from both Psoriasis and other skin conditions.

An imbalance of these chemicals or electrolytes can result in certain skin or other symptoms and over an extended period of time results in various illnesses. benefits of the Dead Sea products together with the conditions or symptoms they alleviate. The Dead Sea Salts differ from regular sea salt in 2 important ways.
1) They contain 10 times more minerals than sea salt.
2) The Dead Sea salts absorb essential oils with ease, which enables them to be released into the bath water as they dissolve. This is beneficial for those wishing to benefit from the Dead Sea in the privacy of their own home. Some of the minerals found in the Dead Sea are listed below together with their functions or benefits to health. This provides some insight as to why these minerals assist in cleansing, de-toxing and restoring a healthy status quo of the body, especially the skin and muscles. Minerals and Chemicals found in the Dead Sea
Sulfur-is found in the amino acids cysteine, and methionine; as well as in cells, hemoglobin (of the blood), collagen (of the muscles), keratin (required for skin), insulin, heparin, biotin, co-enzyme A, (required for healthy hair, skin, nails, among many other biological structures). Sulfur is necessary for synthesizing collagen. It is required for the adequate digestion and absorption of carbohydrates and a number of vitamins e.g. thiamin, biotin and pantothenic acid; It is also essential to enable cells to breathe Sulfur is necessary for the secretion of bile from the liver and for converting toxins into non-toxins. Chlorine is necessary to maintain the correct balance of alkaline and acid in the body, together with being vital for cell metabolism
Iodine is necessary for the production of the hormone thyroxin, and is also vital for both energy and cell metabolism is necessary to maintain the water balance in order for cell metabolism to take place, assisting the cells to absorb nourishment and expel waste products. An imbalance in potassium often leads to water retention. Potassium also plays a vital role in regulating muscle contractions and the nervous system. Sodium like potassium plays s a vital role in assisting the cells to absorb nourishment and expel waste. Calcium is necessary in strengthening cell membranes and cleansing the pores. In addition it is vital for production and maintenance of healthy teeth and bones, together with regulating the heart muscles and nerves. Magnesium is necessary in assisting the body to utilize other essential nutiens and in cell metabolism. Bromine helps with the natural repair of the body together with cell metabolism and can be sued as a natural antibiotic. Saunas often use Dead Sea salts to evaporate the bromides thus creating and environment similar to the Dead Sea. Having a hot bath with Dead Sea salts and allowing the steam to collect in the bathroom will have a similar effect. Other than the benefits listed below for bath salts, steaming and using these salts in the bath can be beneficial for respiratory conditions e.g. asthma. PELOTHERAPY The main healing property of mud is humic acid, which comes from concentration of organic matter. After the Ice Age the earth experienced a compression of plant and animal life resulting in transformation of various rocks and hence, muds. The parts of the earth, which suffered the most erosion, have higher deposits of humic acid. One of these areas is the Dead Sea, which has the largest concentration of humic acid, chloride salts of magnesium, sodium, potassium, calcium, bromine and various other minerals. Since the Dead Sea Mud (also known as Pelloid) has a high concentration of minerals together with an ability to hold heat, the mud can be used for certain healing benefits. Smearing the Pelloid onto the body in a process known as Pelotherapy provides cleansing and detoxing of the skin which has proved beneficial for skin, muscle pain and arthritic or rheumatic conditions. BALNEOTHERAPY
Is an ancient healing form using water, usually with added salts, thereby distinguishing it from hydrotherapy, to condition, relax and revitalize the skin, body and muscles. Its benefits are seen in improving circulation, strengthening the immune system, reducing pain, stress and insomnia.
