The skin, our body's largest organ, often gets the short end of the stick when it comes to oxygen allocation. In the body's hierarchy of oxygen distribution, the brain receives the lion's share, around 20-25 per cent, followed by other vital organs. This means that the skin typically receives less oxygen, which can affect its health and healing capabilities. Hyperbaric Oxygenation (HBOT) can compensate for this by significantly increasing blood oxygen levels. This offers substantial benefits for skin health, particularly through its anti-inflammatory effects.

Whilst expensive creams often promise to deliver miraculous results, there really is no better way to target optimal skin health than by working from the inside. It’s important to remember that our largest body organ, the skin, needs a constant supply of essential nutrients in exactly the same way as other organs do. Omega-3s are incorporated into cell membranes in the the top layer of skin (the epidermis), forming a protective coat around them, helping to stop moisture being lost, and giving skin a healthy appearance. But Omega 3 fish oils also work deeper in the dermis (skin’s lower layer) to control inflammation. So whether you have acne or eczema, want to find a natural psoriasis treatment or are simply looking for a plumper, firmer complexion, you should consider adding extra omega-3s into your daily plan.
