Ask The Blood Detective - Transdermal Nutrition - 05.27.17

Nutrition Through The Skin! The Best Kept Secret of Them All!

Vitamins, minerals and other nutraceuticals can and do pass through the skin when compounded correctly. The skin is a semi-permeably tissue meaning that certain things can transverse through the skin and into the blood stream. The term "transdermal" refers to how nutrition can pass through the skin. People with chronic injury who may have circulation issues could benefit from nutrition simply rubbed into the skin over the area of injury. Those with mal-absorption problems can also benefit from transdermal nutrition because nutrition that gets into the blood stream has no need to go through the difficult process of digestion. Children or adults who prefer not to take certain nutrition by mouth may have as an option the trans-dermal (aka, through the skin) nutrition.
