Dryness is a common complaint in Calgary, comes with being about 3000 feet above sea level. It doesn't help that the cold winter air sucks the moisture out of your skin. But dryness can also be an internal imbalance. Deficiencies in fatty acids and and B vitamins can be a leading cause of flaking skin. Many of us suffer from B deficiencies due to stress which can cause dryness and even hair loss. Daily B vitamins can do wonders to your skin! Think about seeing a naturopath to help understand what vitamins and minerals you are deficient. Dr. Aliya is a Soma favorite: http://somacalgary.
