Natural ingredients in Medipod Foot Repair Cream

This past Saturday we celebrated #EarthHourZA and made a pledge to #UpCycleCans not only is here a picture of our pledge we also want to inform you of the natural ingredients in Medipod Foot Repair Cream.

One of our ingredients in Medipod Foot Repair Cream is Urea:

It is an important component of skin
moisturization, which is naturally found in youthful skin but starts
to deplete as we age. Urea is a girls best friend, especially if you have dry, depleted skin, that often feels like it is one size to small.

Urea makes up about 8.5% of our skins natural moisturizer.
When our skin is exposed to low humidity and harsh environmental conditions, the water content in the skin tissues is reduced therefore we need to replace this moisture in harsh conditions.

Making Medipod Foot Repair Cream effective to rid these skin conditions:

• Dryness
• Dehydration
• Irritation
• Inflammation
• Sensitivity

Often side effects of radiation treatment or chemo leave your skin dry, rough, flaky, red, and sometimes painful from dehydration, heat, cold or even poor nutrition.

• Red, rough, flaky skin (although dry skin can look normal)

• Cracks in the skin

• Slight bleeding between the lines of skin covering joints, such as knuckles or elbows

• Add mineral or baby oil to warm bath water and apply Medipod Foot Repair Cream to dry effected areas once towel dried. Medipod Foot Repair Cream will help prevent dry irritated skin, heal cracks and stop the bleeding.

• Wash with cool or warm water, not hot water.

• Avoid scrubbing the skin during showers or baths. Gently pat skin dry after bathing.

• Put on water-based creams such as Medipod Foot Repair Cream twice a day, especially after baths.

• Avoid colognes, after-shaves, and after-bath splashes that contain alcohol.

• Use an electric razor.

• Drink 2 to 3 quarts of liquid a day, if it’s OK with your doctor.

• Protect your skin from cold and wind. Avoid hot water and heat, especially dry heat.

If you are looking after a cancer patient, call the doctor if the patient:
