Gemnora by Brandi

Gemnora’s base ingredient is Premium processed Goat Milk. Here's why it's the best ingredient to target skin care.

As an avid essential oil user and researcher, I am simply amazed at the potency enhancement when goat milk is combined with essential oils.

Health Benefits of Goat Milk

Goat’s milk products are not too alkaline or acidic in composition, which makes the goat milk ingredient an ideal for element in dry skin formulas. Goat’s milk contains natural Lactic Acid, which also contributes to a stabilized, gentle pH level.

Historically, goat’s milk products have targeted psoriasis and eczema patients due to the painful dry skin conditions that are associated with these conditions.

Some research suggests that one of the main benefits of goat milk is that it may benefit inflammation.

Studies done at the USDA and Prairie View A&M University, link goat’s milk to an increased ability to metabolize iron and copper, especially amongst individuals with digestion and absorption limitations.

Goat’s milk also offers high amounts of calcium, the amino acid tryptophan, and one of the many foods high in calcium.

In Naturopathic medicine, goat’s are referred to as bioorganic sodium animals. They are also associated with vigour, flexibility and vitality. Bioorganic sodium is an important element in keeping joints mobile and limber. Goat milk has traditionally been used in medicinal cultures to nourish and regenerate an over-taxed nervous system. Goat’s milk is also extremely nutrient dense. It has almost 35% of your daily needs for calcium in one cup. Extremely high in riboflavin, just one cup of goat’s milk offers 20.0% of our daily needs. Add to that high amounts of phosphorous, Vitamin B12, protein and potassium.

Goat’s milk is not only more nutritious for you, but also less toxic. Goat’s are rarely treated with bovine growth hormones as well as a substance known as bovine somatotropin, a hormone specific for increasing milk production.

Goat’s milk has the trace mineral, selenium, a key essential mineral in keeping the immune system strong and functioning normally.

Goat’s milk in skincare products provides many benefits.

Goat’s milk is rich in essential fatty acidsand triglycerides. The essential fatty acids have a unique PH similar to humans, so it is less irritating and more easily absorbed by our skin. These fatty acids and triglycerides are super moisturizing.

Goat’s milk contains precious skin minerals like selenium and is loaded with vitamins, particularly vitamin A, the most important vitamin for the skin. As with other milks, goat’s milk contains lactic acid, which is an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA). It assists to gently slough off dead skin cells and helps to hydrate and brighten the skin.

Goat’s milk has unique nourishing properties that make it the perfect ingredient to add to anything which touches your skin, from your shaving cream to your moisturizer. It is both an anti-aging wonder and a lifesaver for dry and sensitive skin.

With its healing benefits, not only will you notice healthier skin, but one more little glorious thing will happen — you will begin to notice a need for less moisturizer.

Goat’s milk is known to be a healthy food for inside our bodies, but as a skincare ingredient, it is a healing miracle. As I mentioned earlier, its lactic acid content helps to reveal brighter, healthier skin while the nourishing and remineralizing ingredients do wonders to maintain the skin’s integrity. Naturally packed with vitamins and anti-oxidants, goat’s milk should be the skincare health ingredient you find your beauty regiment products.

These minerals are vitally important for cellular function, hydration, building bone density, circulation, detoxification, muscle health and metabolism and also happen to be three minerals many people are deficient in.

**Vitamins A & E
Vitamin A and E are anti-oxidants, they can decrease the potential oxidative stress in your skin by neutralizing free radicals before any damage occurs. What are free radicals and how are they formed? Free radicals are atoms that are missing an electron which makes them unstable. They try to become stabilized by stealing electrons from other atoms which can harm cellular DNA resulting in wrinkles, fine lines, and dry skin. One of the most common causes of free radicals is sun damage. Antioxidants like vitamins A and E donate an electron to free radicals so that they don’t have to steal electrons from your healthy cells.

Nutrients like probiotics, vitamin D and immunoglobulins (antibodies) found in raw goat milk naturally boost the immune system and reduce the risk of allergies in both children and adults.

Using Skincare products that contains Goat Milk, produces Supple and Youthful Skin. Products using natural ingredients not only improves skin health but can promote overall health without introducing toxins.
