Natural DC Earth Energy Shown To Improve Wound Healing In Skin

Grounding, Medical Reports / By Laura Koniver, MD

The Power Of DC Energy For Skin Healing This is an incredible study, just published in March of 2023, that backs up what multiple medical studies on grounding have been demonstrating for years: time spent grounded to the earth boosts skin health and improves the skin’s ability to heal. When skin is injured, it naturally creates a small electric field of DC energy to help guide tissue repair. This DC current allows cells to migrate along that mini electrical field, a healing property called electrotaxis. Many of the cells of the skin required for healing are eelectrotactic, including […]

Honey helped: slowed the amount of acid discharged from the battery neutralized the tissue pH at the battery contact site to optimal levels for clinical protection prevented deep tissue injury and completely prevented all esophageal perforations (which was a 50% rate in controls, meaning one out of every two ingestions resulted

Sea Salt Spray Heals Diabetic Ulcers

Female Health, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

As I blogged about last week… I love treating skin issues. I love taking care of skin, and I love supporting skin healing. As a physician, skin is like magic to me. In medicine, we see the miracle of skin repair all the time: You can cut it during surgery, and it will grow back together within a week. You can scrape it to take a biopsy, and it will re-establish an intact barrier within days. You can puncture it with a needle, and it will fill back in to stop bleeding within a matter of minutes… sometimes

Female Health, Medical Reports, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

My skin care motto is: simplify. Let me tell you a little about my background… Before becoming a full time Mommy I was considering going into Dermatology, so in medical school I took three times the regular amount of training in Dermatology as a result. I also spent four summers throughout college working at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, MD… working with a research team who was investigating oncogenes. And… as I mentioned in my sunscreen article last week, my father was a top scientist at the forefront of melanoma research, so in my lifetime I’ve gotten a
