Sunburn / Burns

Sunburn is caused by excessive exposure to the sun’s ultra violet (UV) rays. Most sunburns are first-degree burns that cause the skin to become red, warm and tender to the touch. Depending on the severity of the burn, it may subsequently “cool” into a suntan or thin layers of skin may peel off. Second-degree burns are more serious and go deeper than the surface layer of the skin. It is extremely painful and, for children, highly dangerous. Dehydration often accompanies sunburn and symptoms do not necessarily appear whilst you are in the sun, they may begin from one hour to twenty-four hours after sun exposure. Prevention is better than cure and there are numerous nutritional supplements and topical natural treatments now available to provide protection when you spend time in the sun.

Eat Like a Yogi

Staying at an ashram in the Himalayas taught me a lot about eating. Not just the food itself, but how and why we eat the way we do, and the impact on our emotions and bodies. In the run up to my trip, I read on the ashram’s website that they follow a ‘Sattvic’ diet. I had no idea what that meant, but the list ... read more

The Great British Beach Tan

British beaches are wonderful. I know; I happen to live 250 yards from one. Shingle. Seagulls. Blistering sunshine. (Yes, really, on a good day – and you can read my guide to my hometown here.) Now, Club 55/St. Tropez, Hastings beach is not. I can’t think of anywhere on our coastline, actually, where you have to worry about... read more

Common Foot Complaints

You would be utterly surprised at the number of "everyday" skin conditions which can affect the skin and nails of the feet and with this in mind I have been working on the formulation of a new Hygiene Cream for feet to address many of these everyday conditions. The hygiene cream launch coincides with the celebration by Margaret Dabbs Clinics of ‘World Foot Health Awareness Month’ in May and is a must-have in any bathroom cabinet. It is particularly good for feet that suffer... read more
