Why Tallow?

 Many claim that tallow is "loaded with" essential vitamins, but a more in depth look reveals a lack of credible sources.

USDA data on beef tallow reveals that vitamin levels are often low or even nonexistent, without considering factors like the cows' diet, environment or the rendering processes used. 

Recent testing indicates that even high-quality tallow isn't as vitamin-rich as often claimed by tallow product producers.

So you might ask, Why tallow? What ARE the benefits of tallow? 

Benefits:

Since it's rendered animal fat, tallow is incredibly compatible with human skin because of its compositional similarity to sebum, the natural oils produced by human skin.

Tallow is packed with omega-3 fatty acids, can absorb easily into the skin to stimulate collagen production, is anti-inflammatory and can deliver antioxidants to shield the skin from free radical damage to prevent signs of aging.

So, if you're dealing with issues like dryness, acne, eczema, or psoriasis, tallow can soothe the skin and provide the exact mineral requirements needed for optimal healing. It's much more than just a moisturizer: it's protection and healing! 
A little goes a long way, and it absorbs deeply into your skin, so you may notice that you can use it less often than you may have used your lotion.
