Food is cellular information.

No matter how many products you use, the food we consume determines the fate of our skin and our overall health. If our gut health isn’t healthy, our skin won’t be either. A daily probiotic is a MUST. As Hippocrates, the father of modern medicine once said, “All disease begins in the gut.” It’s blunt but it’s the truth… and no skincare company will tell you this.

Wheat, dairy, sugar, eggs, fat, and nuts tend to be culprits for most but it completely depends on your body and how you react to different foods. A food sensitivity test will show you everything you need to know about the various foods that are causing problems for your skin (and general health and well-being). You might never have thought that your daily avocado toast and eggs were wreaking havoc on your skin’s health…  

After eliminating problem foods, conditions such as acne, rosacea, and eczema are likely to improve tremendously. Other health issues such as brain fog, anxiety, depression, lethargy, and insomnia may improve as well. When you remove anything in the body that causes inflammation, your health and various ailments are bound to improve and even disappear entirely.

While products play a heavy role in the appearance and health of our skin, they can only do so much if your body is inflamed. It always goes back to the food and lifestyle choices we make. Working with a holistic doctor can do wonders for your health. Testing your blood for any underlying issues is critical. Most medical doctors in the American and global healthcare system do not run comprehensive blood panels. The typical response is “your insurance won’t allow me to run these tests” or “you aren’t exhibiting any health conditions that indicate I need to run such tests.” On the other hand, a holistic health doctor will run every test under the moon to determine the root cause of your health condition. Gut issues, adrenal issues, hormonal imbalances, and any other medical conditions may be the underlying causes of your skin issues. The mind is more powerful than the body… Your skin issues may be the result of high stress, anxiety, or depression. 

Always put yourself first. Without our health, we have nothing. Our health is our most prized possession. Treat yourself with endless love, kindness, and all the self-care you need until you feel your best.
