 | Orlando Aquatics Expert Creates Natural Skin Care Line after Discovering Formula to Restore Skin and Nails without Toxic Chemicals
Mark Hesseling, an environmental specialist with 20 years experience in the aquatics field, is best known for cleaning up polluted bodies of water in Florida by using a formula he developed that stimulates good bacteria in water to do their job effectively. He discovered that the human body, made up of 70 percent water, functions much the same way as what he worked with in the aquatic industry. "If we keep our oxygen, pH and alkaline in check along with bacteria properly stimulated on the body, the body will not become sick and diseased," Hesseling explained. "A gentleman who worked with the formula in the environmental field reported that it cleared up the chronic fungus on his fingers and fingernails, and then I knew we were on to something." 2008-03-18 |
