The changing seasons have lots of bearing on your skin and you might be faced with rough, dry, and irritated skin while season changes or the age advances. Ayurveda suggests that it is a result of the accumulation of Vata in the body. The amount of Vata becomes large in the fall and early winter. The people aged 50 and above also face these problems. The large amount of Vata makes you vulnerable to dry skin, cracking joints, thinning dry hair, and brittle nails. Vata may get increased due to stress. Disturbing diet and extreme climatic conditions are other triggers. The secret to staying young is keeping Vata at bay.
