Humans Too Shed Their Skin!!

Hi guys. Welcome to my another blog. Hope all are doing good. This blog is about reason behind the shedding 

We shed between 0.03 and 0.09g of skin per hour, according to a 2011 study published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology.

That may seem insignificant, but it adds up to nearly 35kg, or roughly half your bodyweight, over the course of a lifetime.

Human skin is an amazing organ -- protective, waterproof, and exceedingly useful. It's also constantly changing and regenerating itself. That said, what happens to dead skin cells? You might be a little grossed out to find out where they go and just how many you lose each day.

In short, numerous fungus, bacteria, parasites, and worms feed on human skin.If we didn't shed it, these animals would infect us with a variety of diseases.While the concept of shedding a lot of skin may sound revolting, it really protects us from a variety of ailments.You probably don’t notice your skin falling off because it happens so gradually. But in this hypothetical scenario, all your old skin would build up into one dead layer and peel off. 

Here are some treatment methods and tips to stop the peeling once it’s started.

Take a pain reliever.

Use a soothing anti-inflammatory cream.

Take a cool bath.

Be gentle with your skin.

Make a cool compress.

Stay hydrated.

Keep it covered

Water, proteins, lipids, and various minerals and chemicals make up the skin, which is the body's biggest organ.Its job is to keep the body free of bacteria and diseases.Every 27 days, the skin regenerates itself.The stratum corneum is a dead skin cell layer that used to be present in the epidermis.The epidermis is the skin's outermost layer, as well as its thinnest.It is in charge of safeguarding the body from the elements.

How Can I Keep Skin Healthy?

Thorough cleansing

Use a gentle soap without fragrance.

Balanced nutrition.

Moisturizing

It takes about a month for new skin cells to reach the top layer of the skin.This indicates that a person's skin from the previous month is made up of completely distinct skin cells than the skin he has now.The dust on tables, shelves, window sills, and other surfaces in the home is largely made up of dead human skin cells.
