It is extraordinary what a regenerating influence Symphosan has on the skin. Wrinkles, crow’s feet and other signs of premature aging will be regenerated by its continuous use. As far as age allows, it is possible to have a firm, youthfully fresh skin. Symphosan is therefore a valuable cosmetic and should not be missing

from the dressing table. It does more than improve the appearance, it promotes good health, and true beauty is identified with health. If Symphosan is used for cosmetic purposes, it should be alternated with a good skin oil.

Abrasions, cuts and injuries which take a long time to heal will respond favourably to Symphosan and heal more quickly. It relieves pain and is anti-inflammatory, and also helpful for haema-tomas, that is, blood blisters and swellings filled with effused blood.

If the pain is relatively high up, causing a feeling of contraction, the person may actually be suffering from kidney trouble. Should the pain be felt a little lower down it may be the symptom of prostate (in the case of men) or bladder trouble. Backache can also stem from a degeneration of the bones, for example in a case of ‘arthritis deformans’. A change in the position of the uterus can also trigger backache, and even muscular rheumatism may be interpreted as backache, as can sciatica when it starts higher up.

Backache being a nuisance, the sufferer seeks to get rid of it quickly. For this purpose use a good warming ointment. Apply Sympbosan for a change. It is also beneficial to place some moist, hot hay flowers or camomile, tied in a cloth, on the painful area. Should this treatment not alleviate the pain and improve the condition, it is advisable to consult a doctor in order to identify the real cause of the pain, which can then be treated accordingly.

The outermost layer is called epidermis and consists of cells. The deep inner layer, the corium or dermis, is much thicker and consists of fibrous tissue. The epidermis has more than twenty cell layers that contain no blood vessels, which is why the skin does not bleed when it is rubbed off, nor produces any sensation of pain. However, when the dermis, which lies under the epidermis, is touched or brought into contact with water, there is an immediate reaction. When engaged in physical work, handling earth, sand, lye and the like, soapy water rubs off several layers of the epidermis when the hands are subsequently washed. But on the following day there will already be the same number of layers as before, because the epidermis is continually replaced from underneath. Once this function is disturbed, we get hard and horny skin or abnormal flaking, with loose scales of dry, dead skin, as is so often the case with the scalp. If you wear the same underwear for too long, the offensive smell is due mainly to millions of dead skin cells and dried sweat.

Celandine, also known by its botanical name Chelidonium, is a further effective help, as are preparations made from Podophyllum, Boldocynara, Lycopodium, barberry and all other plants that stimulate the liver. Cancer patients always suffer from liver insufficiency, so it is understandable why plants that stimulate the activity of the liver can help to improve the patient’s condition. Since there is usually a vitamin Ñ deficiency as well, we recommend that the patient take Bio-C-Lozenges, in addition to a diet rich in vitamins.

This plant has proved its reliable effect on all kinds of inflammation and is therefore a good supportive remedy. It can be used internally and externally.
