The Anti-Aging Alchemy of Hyaluronic Acid

Andrew Prince

The tragic irony of today’s commercialized “anti-aging” concoctions is that, due to a variety of dubious constituents and carcinogenic chemicals that remain unchecked within a shockingly unregulated industry, these “beauty-enhancing” and “healthy” treatments end up doing more harm than good—sometimes even instigating the very thing they’re supposed to protect us from. You don’t have to dig deep to uncover some truly unsettling statistics. Take the lead in lipstick, for example. Or the 1.4 dioxane in baby soap.  How about coal tar in shampoo? Consider, too, that more American women have died of breast cancer in the last 20 years than...

The ultimate skin-brightening and free-radical-fighting cocktail has been at your fingertips all along, formulated with an intense concentration of L-ascorbic acid, what’s regarded as the most extensively researched form of topical Vitamin C.

The Best Oxymoron You’ll Ever Encounter: Staying Youthful and Looking Alive with Dead Sea Mud

Andrew Prince

The Dead Sea is anything but dead if you’re looking for a place teeming with enriching minerals and life-enhancing properties. Granted, the hypersaline nature of this lake, due to its significant concentration of sodium chloride and other mineral salts, make it literally impossible for fish, plants, and other macroscopic aquatic organisms to survive within it. Miniscule quantities of bacteria and microbial fungi do exist.[i] It's the deepest of its kind in the world--and, with 33.7% salinity, it is reportedly 8.6 times saltier than the ocean. Located in the Jordan Rift Valley, the Dead Sea's unique beauty attracts tourists all-year round; it...


What Lures Toxins Away: The Wonderfully Detoxifying Powers of Bentonite Clay

Andrew Prince

As of 2011, the United States ranked as the top producer of bentonite worldwide, followed by China and Greece. It is an absorbent aluminum phyllosilicate clay that typically forms from the weathering of aged volcanic ash. It has been used for centuries for its spectrum of benefits, ranging from serving as a foundry-sand bond in iron and steel foundries, as a groundwater barrier, and as a base for dermatologic formulas. Native cultures in the Andes, Africa, and Australia consumed tiny amounts of this clay by dissolving it in water with meals to prevent potential poisoning from toxins.[i] This healing clay has...
