Inside-Out Skin Tips

The main driver of unhealthy skin is 💥inflammation💥 which means a sustainable solution has to address this root cause.

We do that from the inside out, with things like:

✔️ Omega-3 Fats (essential fatty acids in fish, nuts, & seeds)

✔️ Sleep (disrupted sleep increases markers of inflammation)

✔️ Movement (exercise improves metabolic health to reduce inflammation)

✔️ Water (skin is approximately 64% water)

✔️ Colorful foods (antioxidants help to combat inflammation)

✔️ Probiotics (supporting the microbiome and gut-skin axis)

These are just a few examples of how we help our clients combat breakouts, redness, rashes, and irritated skin. The best solution for your skin will be unique to you, and we would love to help.

☀️ Want clear & glowing skin? ☀️

Not many people realize this, but your skin has an ecosystem of its own (the skin microbiome), which can be nurtured or harmed just like the gut microbiome.

Studies have shown that the composition of bacteria on your skin directly correlates with skin hydration and texture, which in turn affect how your skin looks and feels.

You can support your skin microbiome from the outside (by what you put on it) and the inside (through the gut-skin axis!).

For example:

1️⃣ Use gentle skincare products rather than harsh and alcohol-based products. 🧴

2️⃣ Eat a microbiome-friendly diet, rich in antioxidants, fiber, and probiotic-rich foods. 🥦

3️⃣ Work with a practitioner to identify the root cause of any skin concerns you have. 👩‍⚕️

Have you ever thought about healing your skin from the inside out?
