Getting rid of bacteria in your body seems like a no-brainer, right? Wrong. Today there is a widespread abuse of antibiotics that is actually putting people at risk for health problems and immune deficiencies. Studies show a link between the use of antibiotics and developmental inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). While this does not necessarily suggest the IBD is a direct effect of antibiotic use, it still proves that the two are associated. The antibiotics you ingest aren’t the only problems for your immunities. Anti-bacterial wipes, soaps and hand sanitizers are culprits, too. Over-using antibiotics, antibacterial soaps and more is actually harmful to the human body. Microbes – microorganisms that are often bacteria – are not always bad for you. In...
Our bodies are full of bacteria – often good, but sometimes not so good. In certain cases of illnesses, antibiotics are administered to kill off the bad bacteria. Consequently, good bacteria also take a hit and are broken down by the antibiotics.

If something is soft enough to be used on babies then you can bet it is gentle enough for your skin, too. Many people turn to rough chemicals to exfoliate and cleanse their skin, but at BioEsse...
As you might already know, healthy skin starts from the inside out. The combination of a good diet, ample sleep and frequent water drinking is almost a sure-fire way of keeping your skin – and the rest of your body, for that matter – in healthy shape. With the recent spike of pollution, however, damage to our skin often happens from the outside in. Pollution doesn’t just sit on the surface of our skin and do outside damage, either. Microscopic particles work their way into the deeper layers of our skin, causing problems like inflammation and dehydration. Over time, pollution in your skin can cause even worse side effects like loss of elasticity and firmness. These issues especially exist in...
