Quotes
“[Immunoglobulins] were traditionally used and still are actually for more diarrhea-dominant problems. So if you've got a lot of loose soft stools, diarrhea, or even something like inflammatory bowel disease.”
“IgGs can be found in the serum of your blood, and they also can be found in the serum of the blood of cows. And so historically, when people supplement with colostrum, that's derived from dairy, and it contains IgGs. So they are similar in that colostrum has IgGs and it's one of the major components that makes it so helpful, but it's not as potent.”

376: Natural Remedies to Build Collagen For Skin Health w/ Dr. Barbara Paldus 31:42

منذ 4 أيام31:42

31:42

It’s pretty common to be frustrated by aging skin, especially if years of skin problems seem to have accelerated the process. Between common skin treatments and medications, the matrix of collagen for skin can become damaged. The loss of skin hydration (aka. Increased skin dryness) and overall skin barrier damage only make things worse! And this doesn’t take into account possible decades of sun exposure (and damage) along with poor diet choices and more that can all play a role in aging. What can you do to support your skin? My guest today – Dr. Barbara Paldus – joins us to explore natural strategies to support skin barrier repair, helping your matrix of collagen for skin health and reducing skin inflammation. Dr. Barbara Paldus founded Codex Labs, developing biotech solutions for nearly every skin condition, approaching skincare from the inside out with a focus on the skin-gut-brain axis, which was inspired by her son's severe allergies to mainstream skincare products. With a Stanford Ph.D., Barb began her founder journey at Picarro, inventing a leading greenhouse gas detection system, then at Finesse Solutions, advancing biotech equipment for vaccine production, and ultimately finding herself on the other side of two successful exits, holding over 50 U.S. patents. Let’s dive in! In This Episode: Surprising link between gut health + skin barrier function Why inflammation is more than a buzzword How genetics and filaggrin deficiencies play a role in eczema Skin turnover rate in babies vs adults What’s M3? (How it can help your skin barrier) The downside of overusing anti-aging products like retinoids and chemical peels. Tips to protect collagen for skin health so you can maintain hydration as you age Quotes “Inflammation isn’t just a buzzword; it’s a chemical process that, when unmanaged, can break down collagen, damage cells, and disrupt skin health.” “About 60% of skin improvement can be achieved through gut health, but to get to 90%, you need the synergy of supplements and topicals working together.” Links Get 20% OFF your Codex Labs order Healthy Skin Show ep. 355: Is It Just Bad Genes?

“Is melatonin bad for you?” is the most common question I get whenever I suggest melatonin. They’ve heard on a podcast (or read on a blog) the dangers of melatonin . And how you can become addicted to melatonin, wrecking your own body’s ability to produce it if you take melatonin supplements. I totally understand the concern – no one wants to shut down their own melatonin production. If you’ve been convinced that this melatonin side effect is real – you’ve been duped . And in today’s episode, you’ll discover WHY this claim is not only false, but physically impossible.

374: Mindset Of Successful Clients (Versus Those Who Struggle To Get Results) w/ Jennifer Brand, MS, MPH, CNS 52:58

منذ 18 يومًا52:58

52:58

Ever feel like your healing journey is stuck in a loop of disappointment even as you watch everyone else around you get better? And you wish you knew the secrets or even the mindset of successful clients who get results? The truth is, lasting relief from chronic skin issues like eczema and psoriasis often requires more than just finding the perfect supplement or diet tweak. Healing involves so much more than the collective “list of things to do” or supplements to take. It’s also how you show up for yourself and collaborate with your practitioner. As someone who’s walked this road both personally and professionally, I can tell you: healing is not linear . With trust, the right support, and a strategic mindset, it’s absolutely possible to see progress. Since I work with adults and Jennifer Brand works with parents trying to guide their rashy children through the healing process, we thought that sharing the mindset of successful clients could be really insightful. In case you’ve not heard her on the show before, Jennifer Brand, MS, MPH, CNS, LDN is a clinical nutritionist who helps babies and children with chronic rashes navigate the journey to healthy skin so they can enjoy a childhood free from disruptive skin symptoms. As one of the most trusted pediatric skin-focused nutritionists, Jen is passionate about helping families get to the root causes of the problem through her unique method called Rashes Be Gone. Dive in with us now! In This Episode: Why mindset and trust are crucial for long-term healing success How parents can help their kids overcome setbacks with chronic skin issues Why focusing on “one magical fix” can slow your progress Common traits + mindset of successful clients How to stay motivated when healing feels like a slow process The importance of asking for help and collaborating with your practitioner The dangers of comparison and unrealistic expectations from social media Quotes “The most successful clients are those who view obstacles as opportunities to troubleshoot, not reasons to give up.” – Jennifer Fugo “We’re not looking to put someone in a bubble; the goal is to make the body more resilient so it can handle everyday challenges.” – Jennifer Brand Links Find Jennifer Brand online | Instagram | Facebook | TikTok Rashes Be Gone Program (For Kids + Babies) Healthy Skin Show ep. 361: How To Change Your Mindset (So Your Skin Doesn’t Control Your Mood) Healthy Skin Show ep. 131: Mindset: What To Do When Nothing Seems To Help Your Rashes Healthy Skin Show ep. 350: What Drives Itchy Skin In Kids (And Natural Childhood Eczema Treatment Options To Stop It)…

373: What Causes Scalp Psoriasis + That Awful Itchy Scalp? w/ Dr. Jenny Bennett 42:10

منذ 25 يومًا42:10

42:10

Scalp psoriasis affects nearly half of those with psoriasis, yet it remains one of the most misunderstood and challenging forms of psoriasis to get under control. If you’re reading this, you might already know how awful the itching, flaking, and emotional toll can be. Especially as many medications for psoriasis don’t seem to work nearly as well for psoriasis on your scalp. Unfortunately, many people assume their scalp issues are due to dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis when, in fact, they are dealing with something far more complex. Especially as the inflammation worsens, there’s a greater risk that the hair thinning could turn out to become permanent hair loss. That’s why I’m thrilled to have Dr. Jenny Bennett back on the Healthy Skin Show . Together, we unpack the complexities of scalp psoriasis AND talk about some really fascinating organisms that could be lurking on the skin that are helping to drive the problem. Dr. Bennett is a naturopathic doctor, acupuncturist and founder of Aria Integrative Medicine, an autoimmune specialty clinic in Seattle, WA. She utilizes treatments from both Eastern and Western medical practices to find the best approach for treating autoimmune diseases. Dr. Bennett treats a wide variety of conditions such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, Graves’ Disease, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, lupus and scleroderma. You might recall that Dr. Bennett has shared her knowledge with us in the past on Psoriatic Arthritis and Nail Psoriasis . If you’re tired of the relentless itching, worried about thinning hair, or unsure where to begin, this scalp psoriasis episode is packed with actionable insights. Let’s dive in! In This Episode: Scalp psoriasis versus plaque psoriasis The link between scalp psoriasis + psoriatic arthritis Key differences between scalp psoriasis + seborrheic dermatitis How both your skin + gut microbiomes play a critical role in scalp inflammation Why hormonal changes + stress trigger scalp psoriasis flares Treatment options – scalp psoriasis meds + remedies Using UVB + red light therapy to help scalp psoriasis Can scalp psoriasis cause hair loss? Quotes “Scalp psoriasis is often mistaken for dandruff or seborrheic dermatitis, but the key difference is in the texture—psoriasis feels dry, while seborrheic dermatitis feels oily.” “Psoriasis always starts with damage to the top layer of skin, which allows bacteria or fungi to get inside, triggering an immune response and creating plaques.” Links Find Dr. Bennett online | Instagram | Facebook | TikTok Healthy Skin Show ep. 359: Finger + Toe Nail Psoriasis vs Fungus Infection (How To Tell The Difference) Healthy Skin Show ep. 336: Early Signs & Symptoms Of Psoriatic Arthritis (Don’t Ignore These!)

372: What Is Topical Steroid Withdrawal (And How To Advocate To Get TSW Recognized) w/ Briana Banos 51:37

منذ 6 weeks51:37

51:37

If you’re not sure what is Topical Steroid Withdrawal… Imagine living through a condition so painful and misunderstood that it disrupts every aspect of your life, yet the medical community largely dismisses it. That’s the reality of topical steroid withdrawal (TSW) that also creates life-altering health challenges making it extremely difficult to function, sleep or work ; show up as a present partner or parent; or live a fun care-free life for kids with TSW. And it presents significant challenges for parents caring for children with TSW who may end up being threatened with having the authorities (or child protective services) called on them for refusing more steroids. As of today, Topical Steroid Withdrawal Syndrome still isn’t accepted by the medical community, often labeling those worried about TSW as “steroid-phobic.” Platforms like TikTok have given TSW warriors a voice thanks to millions of views for these videos, helping to raise awareness globally and sparking legislative efforts which document what causes TSW.. In this eye-opening episode, filmmaker and advocate Briana Banos returns to share her journey and the powerful impact of her documentaries, Preventable, and the newly released follow-up, Still Preventable . Briana Banos is the creator of the first ever Topical Steroid Withdrawal documentary, Preventable, and the newly released TSW documentary, Still Preventable, which expands on her previous film. From anecdotal stories and doctor interviews, to the history of topical steroids and avenues of reform, Briana continues to shed light on this underrepresented subject. Her battle with TSW began after years of using topical steroids prescribed for eczema—a common treatment that left her dealing with a condition far worse than the original problem. Her first documentary, Preventable , brought awareness to a scattered and overlooked community. But as her own TSW journey stretched into its seventh year, Briana felt compelled to dig deeper, creating Still Preventable to highlight the systemic issues keeping this condition in the shadows and to empower others to use their voices. If you’re ready to learn what is topical steroid withdrawal (TSW) and discover ways to make a difference, this is an episode you don’t want to miss. Let’s dive in! In This Episode: The inspiration behind Still Preventable and why Briana felt compelled to create it What is topical steroid withdrawal and how it’s misunderstood in medical settings Shocking historical facts about the FDA’s role in approving topical steroids Why TSW is being updated to include the term “syndrome” What does being a “long hauler” mean in terms of TSW Advocacy wins: how states like Florida and Maine are acknowledging TSW Why telling YOUR TSW story helps shift narratives and drives change How to get your state to recognize what is topical steroid withdrawal (it’s easier than you think) Long-term effects of untreated TSW Tips to support individuals and families affected by TSW Quotes “We need to stop feeling helpless—if we use our voices together, we can push the needle forward and create change, even if it takes time.” – Briana Banos “The FDA told us, ‘This is not our problem—you need to bring it up with your doctor,' but patients shouldn’t have to educate their doctors on adverse effects.” – Briana Banos Links Find Briana Banos online | Instagram | YouTube ITSAN Advocacy Page: https://itsan.org/advocacy/…

371: How To Stop Feeling Overwhelmed (And Balance Nervous System Regulation) For Healing w/ Eliza Kingsford 46:49

منذ 7 weeks46:49

46:49

Most people who need help with nervous system regulation, don’t realize that they need this type of help on their healing journey. So, have you ever felt like no matter how hard you try, you’re stuck in a cycle of frustration with your skin or health? Maybe you’ve diligently followed every protocol, adjusted your diet, and practiced mindset shifts—yet progress feels just out of reach. It’s not your fault. In today’s episode, we uncover why mindset alone isn’t enough and how your nervous system could be the missing piece in your healing journey. I’ve long known that surface-level strategies like “positive thinking” or “stress management” don’t actually do anything. Maybe you’ve noticed this too. So if you’re familiar with “fight or flight” mode, then you likely know that staying in that state for an extended period is problematic for nervous system regulation. But what’s missing from the conversation is “shutdown”… essentially a third state that is your body’s ultimate protective mechanism—a state that often goes unnoticed because it doesn’t require a catastrophic event to trigger it. Eliza Kingsford joins me for this episode that is perfect for you if you’ve ever been paralyzed by overwhelm or struggling to follow through with even the simplest self-care steps. Eliza is a licensed therapist who helps people experience breakthroughs using a unique combination of applied neuroscience and nervous system regulation training to guide her clients to permanent change, even if they’ve been struggling for decades. Because how balanced your nervous system is directly impacts chronic skin issues. This is why learning practical ways to shift your nervous system out of overwhelm and into a state of healing can be a significant step you need toward lasting progress. Let’s dive in! In This Episode: The nervous system’s role as the body’s “control panel” for healing and balance. What most people don’t realize about “Fight or flight” mode. How nervous system regulation that’s out-of-balance can block mindset work from being effective. Signs that your nervous system is in overload or shutdown mode. The connection between nervous system health and chronic skin flares. Simple tools for nervous system regulation to reduce stress. How to manage your nervous system so it doesn’t hit shutdown Why addressing your nervous system is foundational to root-cause healing. Quotes “Your nervous system is your control panel—it governs everything you think, feel, say, and do. Without addressing it, true healing can’t happen.” “It’s not your mindset holding you back; it’s your nervous system’s ability to handle the load. Without tools to regulate it, even small stressors can feel overwhelming.” “Mindset hacks won’t work if your nervous system is stuck in a protective state. You can’t think your way out of a physiological response.” Links Find Eliza online | Instagram Get Eliza’s FREE Guide: Transform Your Life by Mastering Your Nervous System Healthy Skin Show ep. 361: How To Change Your Mindset (So Your Ready to figure out your skin’s root causes so you can finally fix your skin + break free from meds to manage your skin?

370: Why The Leaky Gut Diet Doesn’t Work (And Other Ways Functional Medicine FAILS Eczema, Psoriasis + Other Skin Problems) 1:13:12

منذ 10 weeks1:13:12

1:13:12

If you’ve ever googled “leaky gut” or “leaky gut diet” because you’ve seen wellness experts claim that leaky gut is why your skin is a mess … This episode is for you. To be fair, there’s a pretty big chance you have leaky gut. BUT, it’s not a root cause of chronic eczema or psoriasis or any of the other skin issues we talk about on the show. Leaky gut syndrome (also known more formally as gut permeability) is caused by other factors. So while it’s a problem, it’s just not THE problem . So in today’s episode I’m sharing an interview that I did on the Balanced Bites podcast hosted by Liz Wolfe where we got into this topic along with others that I know will hit home for you. It’s my hope that this perspective will offer you some much needed insight about what’s really causing skin problem. (If you want to learn more about this, JOIN ME HERE .) So let’s dive in! In This Episode: My inspiration to work in the integrative health field (beyond my own skin problems) What functional medicine gets wrong about skin issues by treating them like autoimmunity + leaky gut Why an elimination diet + leaky gut diet often make skin worse Can you “starve” yeast if you have candida overgrowth? “Steroid phobia” + being traumatized by conventional medical system Quotes “Functional medicine does a really bad job of actually helping people understand chronic skin problems because they treat them like autoimmunity and they're not.” “If you have chronic skin problems, it's likely you have leaky gut.

369: Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) Review (Especially If You Have Psoriasis, Liver Detox or Metabolic Health Concerns) 24:32

منذ 11 weeks24:32

24:32

If you’re curious to try a continuous glucose monitor (CGM), this episode is a must-watch! Blood sugar regulation and metabolic health are HOT topics right now, and considering that some skin issues (like psoriasis) make you prone towards having issues, I frequently have these conversations with clients. Being that I’m perimenopause with a family history of diabetes, I thought it would be a good idea to try a over the counter CGM monitor purely to gain insight into my blood sugar balance and metabolic health. The most frequent question is “is trying a continous glucose monitor worth it?” While using a CGM monitor is quite straightforward, I can see why someone might wonder about this. And while I went into my two-week experiment with a bit of skepticism, I discovered a few crazy important things that I couldn’t have figured out any other way. So let’s dive into why I do believe that a continuous glucose monitor can be a useful tool, who should (and shouln’t) use this type of device, what the experience was like putting on and removing the CMG monitor, and what I wish I knew before I tried it the first time. Let’s dive in! In This Episode: Who should (and shouldn’t) try a continuous glucose monitor How to use a CGM monitor What I learned about my blood sugar from using an over-the-counter continuous glucose monitor What NOT to do with a continous glucose monitor (I wish I knew this when I tried it the first time) How often should you use a CGM (if you’re not diabetic)? CGM monitor tips: What’s actually stuck to your arm? The over the counter continuous glucose monitor I tried Quotes “And the group of people who I think…should probably work with a nutrition or medical professional while using a CGM would be somebody who has a history of eating disorders…and those who have significant disordered eating patterns. If you feel like knowing that a particular meal or food is going to make you terrified to eat that food, don't do this on your own.” “The other thing that did seem to spike my blood sugar was when I didn't eat soon enough…if I just pushed through the hunger and pushed off eating in a window of time, that's when I would start to see my blood sugar spike on its own.” Links Use THIS LINK to save $50 off of your first month on Nutrisense Healthy Skin Show ep. 217: Health Concerns Linked to Psoriasis (You SHOULD Know About) Healthy Skin Show ep. 347: Adult Hormonal Acne + Blood Sugar Dysfunction: What’s The Connection?

368: How To Create A Positive Mindset (Even If You Have A Negative Outlook Right Now) w/ Dr. Sue Varma 51:07

منذ 12 weeks51:07

51:07

There is power in having a positive mindset, even if you have a negative perspective right now. No, I’m not talking about toxic positivity, which encourages people to always look on the bright side (often ignoring or glossing over loss, pain, grief, etc.). I’m talking about practical optimism, a concept I learned about from the book Practical Optimism by Dr. Sue Varma. Practical optimism is a way to change your mindset that holds space for negative feelings and experiences, while equipping you with skills to deal with what you are facing and even possibly turn your challenges into opportunities. This may seem impossible, especially if you are dealing with mental health challenges as a result of debilitating chronic skin rashes. But I encourage you to give this episode a listen with an open mind! Joining me to discuss this concept and how to develop a positive mindset is Dr. Sue Varma who is a distinguished psychiatrist and cognitive behavioral therapist based in New York City. With over two decades of private practice experience, she has made significant contributions to the field of mental health, including serving as the pioneering Medical Director and Psychiatrist for the esteemed 9/11 mental health program at NYU for which she was awarded the Mayoral Proclamation. She’s also the author of the book Practical Optimism: The Art, Science, and Practice of Exceptional Well-Being . In This Episode: The devastating situation where Dr. Varma discovered optimism Are optimism and a positive mindset genetic? Toxic positivity practical optimism Pessimism vs skepticism: what's the difference? Which personality type are you? The eight pillars of practical optimism How to change your mindset even if you feel like you are “broken” How to know if you're emotionally dysregulated Benefits of committing to therapy Quotes “A lot of times people dismiss optimism as a variety of things. It's woo-woo thinking, it's pollyannaish, it's very naive, it's toxic positivity, or it's something you're either born with or not. So why do we bother studying it? And what I found instead was that optimism, yes, there is a genetic component, but the reality is that only 25% of it is genetic. Seventy-five percent of it is learned.” “Practical optimism…says, ‘I invite space for your loss and your grief, but I'm also going to equip you with skills that will help you deal with what you're facing right now, but also in the future, and help you prevent some of the bad things that might be coming your way.’” Links Find Dr. Varma online | Instagram Get Dr. Varma’s book Practical Optimism HERE !

367: Is Your Rash From Mold (And Should You Get Mold Testing)? w/ Jennifer Brand, MS, MPH, CNS 39:38

منذ 13 weeks39:38

39:38

Wondering if you have a skin rash from mold? This episode is for you! If you or your child has a skin rash and you can’t figure out the cause, you may start to look at mold illness or mold toxicity as a possible trigger. And if you suspect that you live or spend time in “fungally” environments with a high likelihood of mold, perhaps doing a mold test has crossed your mind. I’m often asked if mold testing is necessary or if a chronic skin rash (and other health issues) could be caused by mold. So in this episode, we’ll discuss mold illness vs mold allergy, sneaky places mold likes to hide, signs of mold exposure, and much more. Joining me to talk about whether you’ve got a skin rash from mold is Jennifer Brand, MS, MPH, CNS. She’s a clinical nutritionist who helps babies and children with chronic rashes navigate the journey to healthy skin so they can enjoy a childhood free from disruptive skin symptoms.

Surprising places mold hides Quotes “I think one of the things that gets chased nowadays, and it's popular to go down this rabbit hole, is mold. Now, yes, it absolutely can be a problem and I have seen it be a problem. However, what I tell parents is that it really isn't the place to start.” “When it comes to mold testing, we are talking more about a mold toxicity, where the mold is in the person's body. That's what that's detecting, versus a mold allergy, which is like another environmental allergy. So you could be allergic to mold that's in the grass outside of your home.” Links Find Jennifer Brand online | Instagram | Facebook | TikTok GOT RASHY KIDS?

366: What Are Topical Steroids (aka. Glucocorticoids) + How They Actually Work In Your Body w/ Dr. Luis Franco 52:09

منذ 15 weeks52:09

What are topical steroids? Often prescribed for chronic skin conditions, I’ll bet you’ve probably used them at some point during your treatment. Sure, they work quickly, but are they without side effects? To answer that question, we need to talk about glucocorticoids, which are hormones naturally produced by the adrenal glands as part of the stress response. Topical steroids fall under the glucocorticoids category, and due to those who’ve experienced something called topical steroid withdrawal, some people are described by physicians as “steroid phobic.” While there are serious downsides, glucocorticoids can have some incredible anti-inflammatory effects on various health conditions. That’s why it’s crucial for us to have a nuanced conversation about this! Dr. Luis Franco joins me to discuss everything you’ve wanted to know about topical steroids, types of glucocorticoids, and concerns about side effects from using topical steroids. Dr. Luis Franco is a Tenure-Track Investigator at the National Institute of Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS). He was born in Colombia and grew up between Colombia, Brazil, Mexico, and the United States. He attended medical school in Colombia before returning to the United States, initially as a postdoctoral fellow at Duke University. Dr. Franco attended Baylor College of Medicine for specialty training in internal medicine and medical genetics. In 2014, he moved to the National Institute of Health (NIH). In This Episode: What are topical steroids versus glucocorticoids? Are topical steroids + glucocorticoids bad? Cortisone vs cortisol (and glucocorticoids examples by name) Side effects of glucocorticoids What is topical steroid withdrawal? How glucocorticoids modulate your immune system Quotes “Glucocorticoids exist naturally. They are hormones that are produced by our bodies. And they're produced by this very particular gland that's above our kidneys, that's called the adrenal gland or the suprarenal gland. And so our adrenal glands produce these chemicals called glucocorticoids. And those chemicals have many, many roles in biology and the one that is sort of best understood is that they are part of the stress response.” “I think the side effects that are important to know for topical glucocorticoids are one, something called skin atrophy, which is kind of a thinning of the skin that people notice when they've been applying glucocorticoids for a long time. Some people also notice little, kind of red, blood vessels that come up. These are called telangiectasias. These are like reddish blood vessels that become very visible on the skin of people who have used topical glucocorticoids.” Links Find Dr. Franco online Healthy Skin Show ep. 344: NEW RESEARCH On Topical Steroid Withdrawal Symptoms + TSW Red Skin Trigger Topical Steroids Potency Chart Immune regulation by glucocorticoids can be linked to cell type–dependent transcriptional r Ready to figure out your skin’s root causes so you can finally fix your skin + break free from meds to manage your skin?

If you’ve wanted to start growing your own sprouts, this is for you! I learned how to grow sprouts after becoming fed up with the expensive packages from the store getting slimy a day or so after buying them. I’ve continued to sprout different types of seeds and encourage clients to also do this, since sprouts (especially broccoli sprouts) are so good for your liver detoxification. So if you think that sprouting is hard to learn – it’s not! In fact, it’s so easy that my husband who doesn’t even eat sprouts helps me. It takes less than a minute to care for them, and they add so much nutritional value to your meals. To help you learn more about how to grow sprouts in a jar, the difference between sprouts and microgreens, AND how to keep the mold and slime away, I’m joined by Doug Evans, who is considered to be an early pioneer in the natural food industry. In 2002, he co-founded Organic Avenue, one of the first exclusively raw, organic, and plant-based retail chains in the country. He then founded Juicero, the first fresh, farm-to-glass automatic cold-press juicer. Doug is now the founder of The Sprouting Company and lives in the Mojave Desert at Wonder Valley Hot Springs. He wrote The Sprout Book to teach people about the power of sprouts and how to start sprouting. So let’s dive in! In This Episode: Why sprouts are so nutritious How to grow sprouts at home (to avoid the slimy store-bought ones) Difference between sprouts, shoots + microgreens Best method to grow sprouts (jar vs tray vs paper towel) Picking the right seeds to sprout to avoid glyphosate + low nutrients Food-borne illnesses + sprouts How to store sprouts so they last to avoid MOLD! Tips to add sprouts to your diet Beginner-friendly options to start your sprouting journey Quotes “For me, there's nothing better, fresher, healthier than consuming sprouts that you get to grow on your own.” “So the sprouting seeds, you can have top shelf and bottom shelf. So just getting a seed from a bulk bin…in a grocery store. We don't know where it came from, we don't know how old it is, we don't know what it's been exposed to. So since we're using these seeds to grow food for you know ourselves and our family, we want to have the best.” Links Find Doug online | Instagram | Instagram | Tiktok Get Doug’s book, The Sprout Book Healthy Skin Show ep. 177: Liver Detox – Skin Rash Connection, PT 1 Ready to figure out your skin’s root causes so you can finally fix your skin + break free from meds to manage your skin?

364: Immunoglobulin vs Colostrum Benefits (For Leaky Gut, Histamine Intolerance, Itchy Skin + More) 30:45

Ever heard of immunoglobulins? While colostrum is experiencing a renaissance, you should seriously weigh the immunoglobulin supplement versus colostrum benefits. Partly because colostrum is a LOWER potency option, that sometimes isn’t even standardized (depending on the brand) to guarantee how helpful it will be. That said, immunoglobulins (aka. IgGs) can be incredibly helpful for things like leaky gut (gut permeability), histamine intolerance, recovering from a stomach bug or food poisoning, and supporting your immune system during cold + flu season. Plus, I’m going to share why I prefer immunoglobulin supplements over colostrum, what the difference is between the two, and how to use them. Also, I want to how you how to avoid the fake, over-hyped colostrum + immunoglobulin supplements found online (even on Amazon)! Let’s dive in! In This Episode: How I learned about the amazing benefits of immunoglobulin supplement Why you should use immunoglobulins Difference between immunoglobulins and colostrum benefits How do immunoglobulins work? Benefits of immunoglobulins How to take an immunoglobulin supplement Best immunoglobulin supplement + where to get it Quotes “[Immunoglobulins] were traditionally used and still are actually for more diarrhea-dominant problems. So if you've got a lot of loose soft stools, diarrhea, or even something like inflammatory bowel disease.” “IgGs can be found in the serum of your blood, and they also can be found in the serum of the blood of cows. And so historically, when people supplement with colostrum, that's derived from dairy, and it contains IgGs. So they are similar in that colostrum has IgGs and it's one of the major components that makes it so helpful, but it's not as potent.” Links GET REAL, VERIFIED IMMUNOGLOBULINS HERE Healthy Skin Show ep. 188: Histamine Intolerance + Skin Rashes (PART 1) Healthy Skin Show ep. 192: Histamine Intolerance + Skin Rashes, PART 2 Ready to figure out your skin’s root causes so you can finally fix your skin + break free from meds to manage your skin?

363: The End Of Extreme Diets + Exercise: Why Protein, Creatine + Metabolism-Boosting Foods For Perimenopause Weight Gain Are Better w/ Liz Wolfe 53:49

منذ 18 weeks53:49

If you’re over extreme diets or exercise (especially if you’re in perimenopause or menopause), metabolism-boosting foods such as higher protein intake with amino acids and creatine is a better way to go. This is especially important if you’re currently struggling with hormonal or perimenopause weight gain that you just can’t seem to lose! The shared challenge that many women face has a lot to do with confusing and mixed messaging you’ve been exposed to for decades – from counting calories and viewing “thinness” as your marker of being healthy to pretty extreme fitness routines that overtax your system and increase the risk of injury. So how should you eat and move to best prioritize your health? And what intelligent questions should you be asking about worthwhile changes For example – Do fasting benefits that people rave about online apply to you (or could fasting make things worse)? Are the benefits of creatine for women true or overblown?

منذ 19 weeks41:44

Gut parasites can be so frustratingly tricky to get a clear answer whether you have them or not. The topic of and how they impact chronic skin issues is a fascinating once, especially since it’s entirely possible to have parasites, but have NO gut symptoms. Additionally, it can be quite difficult to get accurate test results. So yes, it’s worth exploring a parasite and skin rash connection, even if you live in what’s considered a “first world country”. Certain skin symptoms (like hives) can be a significant clue, while other signs of gut parasites infection are sneakier (like certain nutrient deficiencies). Joining me to discuss all things gut parasites testing related is Jennifer Brand, MS, MPH, CNS. She’s a clinical nutritionist who helps babies and children with chronic rashes navigate the journey to healthy skin so they can enjoy a childhood free from disruptive skin symptoms.

Could adults have a parasite and skin rash but NO GI issues? Relationship between biofilms + gut parasites Quotes “Often, if there is an H. pylori finding and it doesn't necessarily have to be flagged as high, if it's even detected, I consider that a problem. H. pylori often comes along with something parasitic happening.” – Jennifer Brand, MS, MPH, CNS “Parasites move. They don't necessarily all stay in one spot.
