BEVERLY HILLS, CA, April 12, 2014 (Press-News.org) How well do dry skin care lotions fare against each other when tested for the ability to keep one's skin moisturized, especially during our constantly changing weather conditions? A new study, which included the shielding lotion Skin MD Natural had surprising results according to Germaine Muniz at Cantor Research Laboratories.
Cantor Research Laboratories discovered that when Skin MD Natural skin lotion treatment was applied to dry skin, it actually increased the skin's ability over time to retain moisture. All other products tested, including Vaseline Petroleum Jelly (considered to be the ultimate in preventing moisture loss), decreased in their ability to maintain skin moisture.
The lab, located in Valley Cottage, NY, completed its findings from the Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) study on the shielding lotion, showing over the course of one hour with washing, that Skin MD Natural continued to increase its moisturizing abilities whereas Vaseline Petroleum Jelly and all other skin care products that have ever been tested diminished. "Skin MD Natural dry skin lotion not only stopped but actually reversed the loss of vital natural moisture that gives skin it's elasticity and youthfulness, unlike any other product we have ever tested," Germaine Muniz at Cantor Research Laboratories stated.
Dr. Lisa Benest, a board certified dermatologist in Southern California explains why shielding lotions are superior to artificial moisturizers: "A shielding lotion is a lotion that provides a natural barrier on top of the skin to protect it from outside chemicals and irritants. In addition it also acts to keep the moisture and the oils in the skin so that the skin can heal itself. Shielding lotions not only protect the skin's barrier but they restore the moisture to the skin allowing the skin to continue to moisturize itself, so that your skin does not become addicted on the moisturizer, ultimately curing the dry skin problem."
"This study reconfirms that the shielding properties of Skin MD Natural are better across the board than the products currently on the market," says Enrique Alabata, director of research and development for a world-class cosmetics formulations company. "The feel of Skin MD Natural is very light on the skin compared to products performing similarly like Vaseline Petroleum Jelly, cocoa or Shea butter, or mineral oil. It really does do what it says it does, making it a premier anti-aging treatment."
Backed by solid research and dermatology use, this new category of moisturizer, shielding lotion is carving a niche as a leading dry skin treatment that really works.
21st Century Formulations, Inc. tested countless formulations and spent years developing Skin MD Natural Shielding Lotion to ensure it would deliver on its promise to help heal dry skin and protect healthy skin. Skin MD Natural uses a special blend of six vitamins and herbs that naturally strengthen the skin's barrier restoring its function. The result is that skin will require much less lotion over time and not more like conventional lotions.

Hepatitis C treatment cures over 90 percent of patients with cirrhosis
2014-04-12
SAN ANTONIO, Texas (April 12, 2014) — Twelve weeks of an investigational oral therapy cured hepatitis C infection in more than 90 percent of patients with liver cirrhosis and was well tolerated by these patients, according to an international study that included researchers from UT Medicine San Antonio and the Texas Liver Institute. Historically, hepatitis C cure rates in patients with cirrhosis (liver scarring) have been lower than 50 percent and the treatment was not safe for many of these patients.
Hepatitis C virus is the No. 1 driver of cirrhosis, liver transplants ...
Obeticholic acid produces meaningful biochemical and clinical improvements in PBC cirrhosis patients
2014-04-12
London, UK, Saturday 12 April 2014: Results from an international Phase III study presented today at the International Liver CongressTM 2014 have shown obeticholic acid (OCA) given to patients suffering from Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (PBC) who previously had an inadequate response to, or have been unable to tolerate ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), produced meaningful biochemical and clinical improvements. UDCA is the only therapy currently approved to treat PBC.

Gut microbiota may play a role in the development of alcoholic liver disease
2014-04-12
London, UK, Saturday 12 April 2014: Exciting new data presented today at the International Liver Congress™ 2014 shows that the gut microbiota has a potential role in the development of alcoholic liver disease (ALD).1 Though an early stage animal model, the French study highlights the possibility of preventing ALD with faecal microbiota transplantation – the engrafting of new microbiota, usually through administering human faecal material from a healthy donor into the colon of a recipient.2
In the study, two groups of germ-free mice received gut microbiota transplants ...
