How to Protect Your Skin and Internal Health
The skin is an active, sensitive organ closely related to the overall health of the body. Therefore, some simple habits can help reduce discomfort and prevent complications:
1. Regular Medical Checkups
A blood test every 6 to 12 months can detect early changes in glucose, cholesterol, or kidney or liver function.
In people with diabetes, hypertension, or a family history of these conditions, checkups should be even more frequent.
2. Daily Skin Care
Use neutral soaps.
Avoid rubbing vigorously when drying.
Moisturize with gentle, fragrance-free creams.
Apply cold compresses when there is burning or redness.
3. Balanced diet
Eat more fruits, vegetables, and fiber.
Reduce fried foods, ultra-processed foods, and excess salt.
Keeping the body well-hydrated is key for the balance of the skin and organs.
