Cleansing Properties: Sea salt water contains exfoliating properties, helps remove dead skin and moisturize. It also helps cleanse toxins from the body and purifies the lungs. The beach even helps to regulate hormonal disorders.
Relieves stress: Beach life improves our health by promoting the production of serotonin, since the sound, the sun, the smell and the scenery work as natural relaxants. You can include light therapy into your routine, to combat anxiety and stress.
Vitamin D: Lack of vitamin D in the body causes health problems such as hypertension, anemia, cardiovascular diseases, and even cancer. Living on the beach exposes us to this important and much-needed vitamin, improving the condition of our bones and skin.
