Rośliny zielarskie w leczeniu chorób skóry – bezpieczeństwo i zastosowanie

Abstract

The skin works as protector of the human body. Protects against mechanical, physical, chemical and biological injuries. It has a secretory capacity. It can also absorb various compounds soluble in water and fats. There are factors that have a negative effect on the skin, causing it to change and damage. Therefore, there is a need for various types of cosmetics that affect the treatment, regeneration, nutrition and protection. In recent years, more and more often we reach for the products of natural origin in the form of plant materials and their preparations isolated from plants that are part of the cosmetics and skin care preparations. Natural products are beginning to dominate the cosmetics market, as are considered to be more environmentally friendly and safe. However, it appears that the safety assessment of the natural product is much more complex than traditional products (conventional). In the light of existing rules, we can say that certainly need a more pragmatic and conservative approach of the safety evaluation of plant origin ingredients.
