You're seeing in Europe, why are thousands, thousands of ingredients that we are fine with our formulas,

not allowed in Europe that are completely fine and are with the FDA in the United States.

It's a different, completely different mindset and it's financially driven.

Not all natural skin care is created equal,

and many even so-called natural products contain ingredients

that could be causing breakouts, dry skin, and even acne.

I have Andy Nilo on today's podcast,

and Andy was struck by a series of large vehicles while crossing

a busy street. He had a collapsed lung, seven broken ribs, and a severe compound jaw fracture,

which was broken in five places. And I know you're probably thinking, okay, what does this accident have to do with

non-toxic organic skin care? Well, out of desperation to repair his own facial scarring,

Andy began making his own natural skincare products in his small little apartment to help heal his own scarring from the

accident. And well, that was when the birth of Alitura all began. So today we're talking all

about what ingredients can help and also harm your skin, what harmful ingredients to look for and stay away from in skin care

and foods that can help with skin health. Plus, during the episode, Andy graciously gave all my

listeners a huge discount off of all his organic natural skincare products. That was just so generous of him.

So listen in for that. And of course, you know this already, but this is The Digest, this podcast,

and I'm your host, Bethany Cameron. Let's get right into the episode. Lately, I've been drinking

a lot of water, which is a good thing, but the bad thing is that I get

up in the middle of the night to pee and I have a hard time falling back asleep. So I often end up

lying awake while my mind thinks about all the things I have to do the next day and it ends up killing my energy levels,

not to mention weakening my immune system from the lack of sleep needed and all the rest.
