Indigo Naturalis (青黛 Qing dai)

Blue wonder from the traditional Chinese herb garden

Indigo naturalis has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine to
Eliminate detoxification, cool blood to stop bleeding, cleanse liver, extinguish fire, treat ulcers[1] , eczema, boils, skin inflammation and other diseases.[2] [3]

Research confirms

the effect of indigo naturalis in psoriasis[4] [5] [6] ,an anti-inflammatory[7], antibacterial[8] effect and that indigo naturalis inhibits the proliferation of skin cells.[9]

The ingredients of indigo naturalis reduce the development of plaques and inflammation in psoriasis. Studies found that it is not the individual isolated ingredients that cause skin improvement, but the interaction of all of them. [10] [11]

By treating psoriasis with indigo naturalis balm, all skin changes disappeared after 2 months and no symptoms appeared for more than 2 years afterwards.[12]

In a Chinese study, after eight weeks of treating moderate psoriasis with indigo naturalis, more than half of the patients experienced a 75% improvement. [13]

Indigo naturalis is also effective in nail psoriasis, which is more difficult to treat.[14] [15] [16]

Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.)

Medicinal plant of the year 2018

Full spectrum hemp preparations support the skin's immune system.

The skin has its own endocannabinoid system that keeps its immune system in balance. Disruptions can lead to skin conditions such as acne, itching, psoriasis, rashes, cancer, etc. The use of full spectrum hemp preparations restores this balance. [1]

Has been used for thousands of years for skin diseases.

In Arabic medicine, hemp oil was traditionally used in the treatment of ear ailments and skin diseases.[2]

In India, the use of hemp began around 1000 B.C., and its antibiotic effects were used for skin infections, for example.[3]

In Eastern Europe, hemp flowers were traditionally mixed with olive oil and used to dress wounds. Hemp oil and flowers were used for rheumatism and jaundice. The Polish botanist Simon Sirenius mentioned hemp resin as a medicine for burns in 1613.[2]

In the 19th century, the use of hemp was widespread in Europe and the United States. Corn plasters, ointments, and rheumatism remedies were made from hemp for topical use.[4]

Research confirms the effects of full-spectrum hemp preparations.

Research confirms that full-spectrum hemp preparations can kick-start the skin's endocannabinoid system. As a result, they provide better protection against environmental factors.

A healthy skin endocannabinoid system is able to inhibit pain and inflammatory responses.[1]

Studies have demonstrated a reduction in itching in various skin conditions such as eczema, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis with the use of cannabinoids.[5]
Cannabinoids have anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects, protecting nerves and reducing itching.[6]
CBD has been found to interact with certain medications and alter their effects. For this reason, you should consult your doctor before starting to use hemp supplements.[7]

Raw untreated honey

A wound healing agent with a long tradition

The healing properties of honey are based on the fact that it has antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral effects, maintains a moist wound condition and forms a protective barrier against infections due to its high viscosity.

Honey has been valued since ancient times in many cultures as a remedy for numerous skin diseases as well as for wound healing. The oldest writing, in which honey is mentioned, is an approx. 4000 year old clay tablet of the Sumerians with prescriptions for ointments and medicines [1].

Honey is able to cancel antibiotic resistances.

Honey is increasingly used in the treatment of skin diseases and infected wounds, where conventional pharmaceutical products fail.[2] Honey is also used in the treatment of skin diseases and infected wounds. Thanks to its broad spectrum of phytoncides, honey inhibits the growth of pathogenic microorganisms or has been shown to destroy all previously tested microorganisms, including dreaded antibiotic-resistant bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus in chronic wounds or the yeast Candida albicans.[3] Following the use of honey, infections with previously antibiotic-resistant bacteria can be effectively treated with antibiotics.[4] [5] 

Research:

Honey as a wound dressing

supports healing processes and stimulates the body's immune responses[6] [7], destroys pathogens naturally and is very effective in treating acne, cuts, burns, bruises and wounds with risk of infection[8]. Honey eliminates infection, debridement, suppresses inflammation, minimizes scarring, stimulates angiogenesis, tissue granulation, epithelial growth[9] [10] and relieves pain[11]. Physicians used honey to treat ulcers, burns, fistulas, and boils[12], as well as almost all types of wounds such as abrasion, abscess, amputation, decubitus, burns, chills, burst abdominal wound, cracked nipples, fistulas, diabetic, malignant, leprosy, traumatic, cervical spasm, sickle cell, and septic wounds.[13] [14] Studies in Fournier's gangrene confirm rapid improvement with decreased edema and discharge, faster regeneration and less or no scarring, effective wound debridement, and decrease in mortality[15].

Honey for fungal infections

Honey has antifungal activity against all common dermatophytes[16] [17], inhibits toxin production[18], bacterial infections[19] and is effective in treating seborrheic dermatitis and dandruff [20].

Antiviral activity of honey

Honey is safe and effective against herpes labialis, herpes genitalis[21] and rubella virus[22] compared to aciclovir.[22]
Honey in ophthalmology

Honey is used worldwide to treat various diseases of the eye and surrounding structures such as corneal injuries, conjunctivitis, blepharitis, keratitis, chemical burns, and thermal burns [23] [24].

The application of honey in infectious conjunctivitis reduced the redness, swelling and pus discharge until the complete eradication of the pathogen from the body. [25] [26]

Raw beeswax (Cera flava)

Beeswax has a long tradition as an ingredient in creams and ointments, and has been used by humans for health care since the Neolithic period.[1]

In ancient Egypt
beeswax was used for medicinal purposes. In many recipes, it was the main ingredient of creams and ointments for the treatment of wounds, burns, and pain.[2] [3]

In traditional Indian medicine.
beeswax is used for abrasions and burns[4] and has also been effective for cracked heels.[5]

Physicians in ancient Rome
used ointments made of olive oil , beeswax and rose water to treat burns, wounds, cuts, bruises and fractures [6].

Beeswax makes the balm supple and increases adhesion to the skin protects the skin from moisture loss and external influences such as cold or sun. It is breathable and does not clog pores. In skin care, beeswax has antibacterial[7] and anti-inflammatory effects.[8] It has fat-like properties without being greasy and is readily absorbed. The contained vitamin A supports the skin in the formation of new cells and delays collagen degradation and thus the aging of the skin[9]. Beeswax has a strong synergistic effect, absorbs the active ingredients of the other ingredients and slowly and continuously releases them to the skin, increasing the effect.

Olive oil (oleum oliva)

Used for skin care since ancient times

The use of olive oil can be traced back to the Bronze Age (ca. 3150 to 1200 BC). It was used for rituals such as anointing kings and for skin care.[1] Cleopatra is said to have invented the first anti-wrinkle cream containing olive oil.[2]
The antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties of olive oil have been used in wound care since ancient times and are still used in folk medicine today.[3]

Olive oil protects the skin in combination with honey, beeswax and hemp.

The mixture of honey, beeswax, hemp and olive oil, prepared according to traditional methods, has been proven for a long time because the different ingredients work synergistically with each other.[4]
Research on olive oil shows:

Olive oil is rich in vitamin E and polyunsaturated fatty acids, which stabilize cells. Vitamin E protects against UV radiation, prevents the development of cancer cells and repairs skin damage [2]. It delays skin aging and has a positive effect on skin hydration.[5]

Research has shown

that the application of olive oil to the skin is effective in treating dry skin, eczema, inflammation, itching, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, diaper dermatitis, burns, and other skin damage.[6] The antibacterial effect of olive oil significantly improves foot ulcers in patients with type 2 diabetes.[7] Olive oil nourishes and protects the skin, promotes the healing of wounds [3], moisturizes and enhances the absorption of other ingredients.
