Background
The beginning of a wound is disruption of the stratum
corneum of the epidermis. Through the use of nourishing
topical agents such as Olivamine, the skin can be
conditioned and restored to full function, enabling the
skin to be the very effective barrier it is meant to be. A
healthy epidermis is flexible yet strong, able to fight off
invading organisms, and able to recover and heal after
inflammatory and mechanical insults.
Objective
To determine if the Remedy Skin Care System contains the
optimum blend of nutrients to help achieve homeostasis of
the skin.
Methodology
After assessment of 4 patients, individualized skin
care regimens using Remedy products were developed
to address their conditions, including dry and scaly
skin (2), skin complications associated with diabetes
and recurrent ulcers.
Findings
By adding an active ingredient that nourishes and
enhances the skin’s condition, we have seen a dramatic
improvement. Since the fully functioning and mature
epithelium is our ultimate defense, we have found a way to
help protect to this important organic source.

What Factors Are Essential to
Healthy Skin Development,
Maintenance and Repair?
1. Adequate building blocks (nutrients)
for production of the skin.
2. Optimal conditions for orderly
maturation of the epidermis.
3. A healthy dermis to support the
epidermal function.
How Can We Nourish,
Repair and Protect the
Body’s Largest Organ?
Products that are placed on the skin
should moisturize and condition to
improve the barrier function of the
epidermis. The skin needs topical
maintenance, at all times, particularly
in times of distress.
