[QUOTE="Listlad, post: 1986700, member: 499223"] Ah. Think I have got that. It links up to something I have been told before and our member [USER=493842]@Antechinus[/USER] mentioned. With diabetes the oils generated inside the skin cease to function so this no longer happens. The urea seems to follow along these lines: “The [B]urea[/B] is then excreted by the kidneys in the [B]urine[/B]. [B]Urea[/B] is also excreted through sweat, and regular healthy skin has a small amount of [B]urea[/B] on the very outer layer. [B]Urea[/B] in cosmetics, however, is man-made in the laboratory. Same chemical formula, just synthetically made.” Seems to fit together. So our feet cease to receive the urea on the outer skin, so it dries up. [/QUOTE]
