4. Warm honey and mix with lemon juice and apply to your face.  Wash after it dries.
5. Mix Turmeric, sandalwood powder, and olive oil, then apply to your body.  Shower after 10 minutes.
6. Massage your skin with milk.  Milk has moisturizer in it and will keep your skin smooth.

13. Scaly skin is a result of fluorine deficiency.  Fluorine is the anti-resistant element of the human body, the absence of which creates problems in the blood and spleen.  Since cooking and heating foods destroys fluorine, it’s better to eat uncooked raw fruits and vegetables.  Other foods rich in fluorine are goat milk and cheese, rye flour, avocados, sea plants and cabbage, cream whey, and cottage cheese.
14. Wrinkled skin is the result of sodium deficiency and makes skin sticky.  Cucumbers are ideal for combating and preventing sodium deficiency because they are not only high in sodium, but also help in keeping the body cool.
15. Skin rashes are the result of silicon deficiency.  To avoid rashes, eat plenty of sprouts, alfalfa, barley, tomatoes, spinach, strawberries, and figs.
