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 te…

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…

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 g…

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. Ig…

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 share…

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 exp…

If you have discolored, yellow nails, you could be dealing with finger + toe nail psoriasis. Often, brittle, raised nails can be tricky to figure out what’s going on especially when you consider how similar nail psoriasis vs fungus nail infections can look. Nail psoriasis actually forms under the nail bed and can be easy to miss! Eventually, though…

Did you know that skin problems can be signs of hidden parasites-gut imbalances? And that if you have a skin rash like chronic hives, psoriasis, or eczema, the chances that you have gut parasites are quite high? In fact, some symptoms of parasites might seem totally unrelated to your skin or gut health. And my many years of clinical experience has …

“Why am I so itchy?” If you have itchy skin without rash, including issues like eczema, psoriasis, or chronic hives, you might have neuropathic itch. Though itch is caused primarily by inflammation, neuropathic itch is actually caused by dysfunction of your nervous system! Put simply, this type of itch has no primary skin rash, so you won’t see inf…

If you didn’t know, markers for candida in stool tests aren’t very trustworthy. This is a challenge when you’ve invested money to figure out what’s going on in your gut that is also impacting your skin. Candida overgrowth is tricky to pinpoint if you don’t take several factors into account (and often they aren’t things you can test for). Sometimes …

What are the causes of eczema? Can you get eczema genes? Is psoriasis genetic? These are common questions especially since many doctors still blame skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis on genetics. Many people have been told “Oh, you just got bad genes!” So is it true that the genes are the reason explaining WHY you got the skin condition that…

If you’ve ever been told to “just stop googling” when you’ve met with a doctor to get help for a skin flare-up, this episode is for you.

Ever heard of a tick meat allergy (also known more formally as alpha-gal syndrome)? This is caused by the bite of a very specific type of tick which then triggers an allergy to mammalian meat (that comes from cows, pigs, sheep, etc.). Alpha-gal syndrome is different to other food allergies. Take peanut allergies, for example. Symptoms like hives an…

Let’s talk about hemp seed oil for skin benefits! This powerful, nutrient-rich seed oil is loaded with skin-friendly vitamins and fatty acids that are fantastic for your skin — especially when it’s dry and itchy. But there’s also some confusion around hemp seed oil. Even though it’s from a plant that’s been cultivated for thousands of years for med…

Childhood eczema treatment options can get confusing fast, especially if you don’t know what’s driving your child’s itchy skin rash in the first place. If your child is scratching constantly, it’s easy to blame histamine (and think it’s a histamine intolerance issue). Or if they have scaly eczema skin, it’s easy to blame food and start to cut more …

Ever wonder what insights could be gained from small intestine bacterial overgrowth testing when you’ve got IBS gut symptoms? Last week, Dr. Ken Brown and I discussed various reasons why Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is a problematic diagnosis that has become a “catch-all” for any digestive symptoms. We also spoke about how SIBO inflammation can s…

Adult hormonal acne can start to affect every facet of your life. It can cause self-esteem issues, stress, and anxiety.

That’s why digging de…

I’ve discussed topical steroid withdrawal symptoms and TSW skin concerns extensively on the Healthy Skin Show, but there is still so much about this condition that isn’t well understood. Partly because we don’t yet have much research on TSW. So when I heard that Dr. Ian Myles was looking into topical steroid withdrawal symptoms, I had to get him on…

A couple of months ago, I discussed black seed oil benefits on the podcast and was taken aback by the response I received!

Did you know that what’s living up in your nose could be a trigger for what causes sinusitis? The nasal microbiome is a vast new frontier and when things are out of balance, there is a ripple effect that can drive inflammation not just in the sinuses, but also in your body.

If you’re serious about figuring out what type of diet is best for you – your answer is nutrient dense foods.

Nutrients are the raw materials that the human bo…

If you’ve ever wondered the best way to test for food allergy sensitivity, this episode is for you! What do I mean by food allergy sensitivity? Many people think that you’re either allergic (and thus highly reactive) to specific foods or you’re not.

If you’ve found it frustrating that no one can tell you why you have chronic urticaria hives (including chronic spontaneous urticaria, dermatographia, and even angioedema), I feel you. Especially when IgE allergies are ruled out (testing is negative) or even avoiding what you’re allergic to isn’t helpful. At that point, most doctors will say that t…

If you have psoriasis, you have a 30% chance of developing psoriatic arthritis symptoms! This type of psoriasis is notoriously difficult to diagnose because, unlike rheumatoid arthritis, there are no blood tests to easily confirm it. Psoriatic arthritis can be triggered at any age, but its onset is most commonly between 35 and 55 years old. One of …

When you’re dealing with rashed skin, you can’t just slather on any moisturizer, cream, or the latest miracle potion promoted by beauty influencers. You’ve got to make sure the ingredients in your skincare formulas are clean, free of questionable ingredients, promote a healthy skin barrier, and soothe instead of potentially irritate your skin. And …

Did you know that non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common type of liver disease? (And it absolutely is tied to skin issues too!)

Struggling with SIBO symptoms like bloating, abdominal pain, constipation, gas, and diarrhea, can be very frustrating.

Did you know that the severity of eczema symptoms + skin color have a unique relationship? That certain eczema symptoms can be WORSE for skin of color versus white or lighter skin tones?

If you have a dairy allergy, it probably doesn’t surprise you that it’s one of the more complex common food allergies.

Spotting food allergy signs quickly can be tricky, especially since they don’t manifest in everyone in the same way. But it’s so important to be able to identify the symptoms of food allergies, because a whopping 1 in 13 kids have at least ONE food allergy. And that number is surprisingly high for adults, too. Food allergies are an IgE immune-media…

Tempted to try a bleach bath for eczema skin rashes? Did your doctor recommend them? Before you go dumping Clorox into your bath water — you need to hear this. Because honestly, the science doesn’t support bleach baths which was highlighted by Dr. Peter Lio at the Eczema Expo 2023 meeting. Turns out that the research on this outdated practice isn’t…

If you've been disappointed by keratosis pilaris treatment options + natural remedies -- you're not alone! Keratosis Pilaris (aka.

Women are very poorly educated on perimenopause and perimenopause symptoms! So much so that we often assume that the subtle, annoying signs of perimenopause are the result of something else. You probably know some signs of menopause like hot flashes or night sweats. But as you hit your late thirties to early forties, things start to change that you…

Before you buy food sensitivity testing, you need to hear this because so many people are harmed by these tests. For one thing, food sensitivity testing is touted as a miracle, cure-all answer for skin rashes.

Many health experts swear that to be truly healthy, you’ve got to “move the lymph” using some sort of lymphatic drainage routine – often with expensive tools or techniques. The hope is that you’ll somehow clear infections, lose the bloat, and clean out toxins. While yes, lymphatic drainage is important, it’s not a miraculous solution. The type of l…
