Skin – Your Immune System’s Frontline
Dec
Exploring the Various Roles of the Skin
We invest significant time and effort into maintaining our skin. Using gentle soaps to cleanse it and hydrating creams and lotions to nourish it, we aim to keep our skin looking radiant and moist, aiding our comfort and confidence in our bodies. For many of us, the condition of our skin greatly impacts our self-image and the persona we project to the world.
Nurturing Your Skin
Perhaps unbeknownst to you, your skin plays numerous roles. We discuss four key functions of your skin below:
- The skin plays a crucial role in the formation of essential Vitamin D when exposed to the sun. Yet, this exposure may also lead to sunburn, especially without proper sun protection. Over time, this can hasten the aging process, leading to wrinkles, lines, and pigmentation spots.
- The sense of touch is another critical skin function. Our skin is covered in receptors that register even the smallest contact. While some areas may contain more concentrated receptors, others may be more sensitive. These receptors register both pleasant sensations and pain.
- Your skin also helps regulate body temperature. This is particularly noticeable during warm months when perspiration cools the skin and body.
- Last but certainly not least, your skin plays a crucial role in your immune system. Keep reading to understand more about how your skin contributes to your immune defense.
Your Skin: A Constantly Evolving Shield
The skin: The First Line of Defense
When thinking about the immune system, we may not immediately consider the skin. However, the skin acts as our first line of defense, shielding us from foreign substances and bacteria. As such, caring for our skin throughout our lives is critical.
As the body’s largest organ, the skin houses most of our immune cells. It shields us from the sun’s potent rays, winter’s biting cold, and year-round infections. Each day, the skin serves as the primary and largest barrier, warding off numerous bacteria. To maintain a robust barrier, the skin continuously regenerates.
Approximately 30,000 cell divisions occur in the skin every minute of every day throughout our lives. In just one month, your outermost skin layer, the epidermis, completely renews itself.
Skin: The Body’s Protector
Boosting Your Skin and Immune System
Collagen Immune Remedy, a collagen supplement containing natural ingredients, is designed to support both your skin and immune system. These ingredients, familiar to the Nordic region, boast impressive benefits:
- Marine Collagen enhances the skin’s elasticity and resilience, thereby minimizing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
- Echinacea supports the normal function of the immune system.
- Vitamin C, derived from acerola and blackcurrant, aids the immune system, alleviates tiredness and fatigue, and supports the normal formation of collagen essential for healthy skin and bones.
- Vitamin D in the form of Earthlight contributes to the normal function of the immune system and the maintenance of normal bones.
Few, Yet Potent Ingredients
Although the ingredients are few, they have been carefully chosen to deliver nature’s best. The collagen, sustainably sourced from wild-caught North Atlantic cod off the coast of Norway, guarantees the highest quality.
Expect visible results after 8-12 weeks of using Vild Nord’s collagen products, including Collagen Immune Remedy. You can easily dissolve Collagen Immune Remedy powder in any liquid – from a glass of cold water to your favorite smoothie.
