A Naturopath's Deep Dive Into Acne - 54
Tuesday, 25 June, 2024
Welcome back to "Guts and Girl Bits!" In this episode, I delve into a topic that affects so many of us: acne. Acne is not just a cosmetic concern; it can impact your self-esteem and even cause physical discomfort. Join me as I explore various approaches to understanding and treating acne from a naturopathic perspective. I’ll discuss the interconnectedness of the skin with other body systems, such as the nervous, endocrine, and digestive systems, and how imbalances in these areas can lead to skin problems. Learn about the theory of emunctories, a foundational concept in naturopathic medicine, and how ensuring efficient waste elimination can improve skin health. I’ll share insights into how gut health, stress, and hormonal imbalances can contribute to acne and offer practical tips for addressing these underlying issues. I’ll also touch on the importance of diet and the potential impact of inflammatory foods on your skin. Plus, hear answers to some common questions about acne, including how to manage acne after coming off the pill, the timeline for seeing improvements, and whether probiotics can help. And if stress is playing a role in your skin health, consider joining my Beat Burnout Program to support your nervous system and overall well-being.
