Anything natural is usually always the best. Whether it is in taste, appearance or quality, natural is the best way to go and take. The world is heavily chasing artificial goods and things without a care simply because they come fast and seem to have a form of aesthetic beauty but the fact remains that artificial can not be like natural.
Crops and farm produce that are artificially grown cannot have the same taste, nutrients and benefits that a naturally grown farm produce contains. There will always be a world of difference between a natural and an artificial.
Moving to cosmetics, in the past, our mothers depended on natural creams and ointment. One that I am very familiar with is palm kernel oil. This is a natural rich oil that gives the skin a natural healthy glow while also eliminating some skin diseases like *craw-craw and rashes.
Presently, there are a los teat of chemicalized and artificial skin care products that when used for a long time discolours the skin and gives it an unhealthy appearance.
What about hair products and body enhancers. There's a lot to say in this regard. Although they are somewhat helpful but over- dependence on these artificial things is totally unhealthy and some might even lead to future health complications.
I believe in following the natural way or going for natural foods as much as possible and I am in full support of those clamouring for naturals because I believe that artificials can not replace naturals at all.
Natural mineral resources like gold, diamonds and other precious stones are way better than artificial stones even though they might be difficult to extract and mine from the earth.
Even in our environment, I have noticed for quite some time that only naturally grown flowers produce sweet fragrance that freshens the environment but artificial flowers are just there, although beautiful but they don't emit any fragrance.
It is such a pity that artificial are in Vogue and are growing rapidly too but they are not really the best in the long run. Use it but don't totally depend on it.
Grow your own vegetables if you can or patronize farmers whom you are certain of grow their crops naturally. Reduce over dependence on hair extensions , body enhancers, cosmetics and skin care products. There are several naturally extracted oils and skin care products that can be used for skin care that wouldn't cause damage to the skin in the future.
Going for naturals can sometimes take a long period due to the process of time but they are always the best when chosen.
