The skin protects our body by many ways: as the physical barrier to the environment and toxicants, as the antimicrobial barrier by producing protective chemicals. By working together with the immune system, the skin is home for strictly nonpathogenic, occasionally pathogenic and pathogenic bacteria, fungi, viruses and other microbes (microbiota). BTW, gut and skin microbiota are equally important in training our immune system and to protecting us from harmful pathogenic microorganisms.
The causes of eczema are unknown. However, factors such as the environment, loss of barrier function play important roles. Genetic mutations are also to consider, as exemplified by the protein filaggrin. Intact filaggrin and its subproducts are necessary for normal skin function, by participating in barrier protection, as sunscreens and moisturizers. Furthermore, filaggrin subproducts make the skin environment, hostile to harmful pathogenic bacteria by maintaining an acidic pH. Conversely, mutated and dysfunctional filaggrin is linked to skin dryness, weakened barrier protection, increased susceptibility to allergens and other irritants, which leads to unwanted immune reactions, infections and inflammation.
To help restore and maintain healthy looking skin, Moza Naturals™ Organic Eczema Cream was created as an all plant-based & all-natural skin nutraceutical. It is enriched with moisturizers to help fighting skin dryness, antioxidants to help with inflammation, prebiotics for the microbiota, and other plant nutrients to help with skin barrier function, and to diminish skin irritation.

Sadly, stretch marks cannot be medically prevented or eradicated. Since there is no preventative measure you can take, people are always trying to get rid of them. There are thousands of answers on the internet on "how to get rid of stretch marks," but most of them leave you with little to no result at all.
That is why we created our product Organic Skin Repair. This product once applied to your skin, alerts your natural system that there is something that needs fixing(put in simplest terms). From there your body itself will begin to mend the issues. The results are clearly visible within weeks!
Try out the natural way, your body will thank you!
]]>Despite our knowledge of these structural and functional differences, moisturizers and other babies skin care products, relies on the 140+ year old petrolatum (petroleum jelly). As an occlusive moisturizer, petrolatum, mineral oil and silicones (all industrial chemicals), act by forming an inert physical seal or barrier to prevent skin from losing water. While this sounds great, many of these products have side effects. In addition,although utilized in many commercial baby skin products, these occlusive moisturizers like petrolatum, they are based on the "barrier" type mechanism of action. To us this appears counter indicative to the dynamic mechanisms of water retention by which the infant skin operates.
Our baby products are made with no side effects prone plant-food-based emollients and humectants. They act by enhancing skin barrier function and by bringing hydration to the skin and by improving skin softness, flexibility, and smoothness.
We believe in better designs of baby's skin care products that are based on the respect of the developing infant skin, utilizing plant-based emollients and humectants.

For example, C. acnes hydrolyzes triglycerides and releases free fatty acids that contribute to create acidic pH of your skin surface, thereby preventing the invasion of the skin with common pathogens.
Antibiotics, while can be a good thing they could also be potentially harmful to your body. They have many side effects some of which include an upset stomach, dizziness, skin sensitivity to sunlight, and it kills off the good bacteria in your body. Antibiotics can be prescribed for a few weeks up to one year. This makes typically healthy individuals prone to these damaging factors for an extended period.
There have been studies showing the currently more that 50% of Cutibacterium acnes strains are resistant to antibiotics. This makes antibiotics ineffective when it comes to treating acne.
In our understanding, we at Moz Nutraceuticals LLC, believe that Cutibacterium acnes, the most abundant microorganism in the human skin is a friend.
Prebiotics are natural products that are very beneficial to our bodies & skin.
We, at Moz Nutraceuticals LLC strongly believe that non-therapeutic strategies that are nutrition-based topicals, are to be considered in parallel with traditional, mid-centennial, side effects-bound pharmacotherapy.
We advocate the usage of plant-based food nutriments (nutraceuticals) including prebiotics for the skin microbiota. Ultimately, this process will help to re-establishing homeostatic interactions between you the human host and your skin microbiota; thereby turning the balance of pressure selection in favor of commensal microbiota subtypes, and not virulent bacterial subspecies including C acnes. AKA our products pair with your natural system in order to help your body defeat the bad bacteria, all while still keeping the good bacteria.

One big benefit of breastfeeding that you can't get through formula is the ability to reduce risks and the severity of infections. Neonatal saliva is rich in nucleotides. When you breastfeed you are bringing that bacteria to your babies mouth. While it sounds harmful it is actually a great thing! Microbiota will grow faster in babies' mouth and gut. Babies' microbiota helps the development of the innate immunity to make your baby more resistant to parasites and better fight them off!
Breastfeeding is more easily digested than formula and helps your baby have better bowel movements since hydrogen peroxide facilitates gastric motor contractions. Fresh breast milk is rich in physiological H2O2 (hydrogen peroxide). Thus leading to enhanced microbicidal (these reduce infectivity of microbes, such as viruses/bacteria) properties of breastmilk.
When you breastfeed you are also making skin-to-skin contact with your baby, which can increase the bond you have.
Here at Moz Nutraceuticals we know that breastfeeding can be very stressful, so that is why we created the breast milk booster. It increases milk supply within 24 hours, and has lasting benefits. Do you and your baby a favor and give it a try!
