USF Ointment For Soft & Healthy Skin
During the winter months many people struggle with dry, cracked or sensitive skin. The skin is the largest organ of the human body and it is our first line of defense from disease, infection and injury. Repeated exposed to air pollutants, beauty products, soaps or harsh weather (especially during the cold winter), can cause the skin to become irritated which makes us more susceptible to infection. Maintaing a healthy diet, drinking plenty of fluids and getting regular exercise are excellent ways to keep the skin healthy and vibrant – but sometimes they are not enough on their own. Many of the lotions and hand creams being sold today contain chemicals or fragrances that can actually cause further damage to the skin. Standard Process has developed a product – USF Ointment - that can combat dry, scaly, cracked or sensitive skin without the harsh chemicals often found in lotions. USF Ointment contains Vitamin F, lanolin, linseed oil and lecithin.
“Lanolin is made up of water and fats, making it a natural emollient to damaged skin. Linseed oil provides essential fatty acids required by every living cell to rebuild and produce new cells. Lecithin, a phospholipid, is a major component of cell membranes. The cell membrane acts as a gatekeeper for incoming and outgoing nutrients and wastes, Lecithin helps cells absorb essential fatty acids. These three ingredients supply oil and moisture to support healthy skin cells. The Vitamin F Complex contains important fatty acids that promote healthy skin and hair. The vitamin F Complex also brings needed oxygen and calcium from the blood to also help promote healthy skin. The natural oils in lanolin and linseed oils help to restore elasticity to dry and brittle skin. Lecithin promotes absorption of these precious oils into the cells. As moisture is restored, the tight feeling, itching, and flaking of skin is often significantly relieved.” – USF Ointment Product Detail
