Podcasts about Acne

Acne is often treated like a surface problem, but what if your skin is actually signaling deeper imbalances inside the body? On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared breaks down acne from a functional medicine perspective, exploring how hormones, liver function, gut health, stress, blood sugar, and the microbiome may all play a role in breakouts at every age. He discusses the connection between insulin, androgen balance, endocrine-disrupting chemicals, and inflammation, while also diving into the gut-skin axis and the importance of liver detoxification pathways. Jared also shares natural strategies he has used successfully for years, including targeted nutrition, probiotic support, endocrine detoxification support, and topical approaches that work with the skin rather than against it. Plus, he offers an honest discussion about Accutane, antibiotics, and why addressing root causes matters for long-term skin health.Products:LiverVitalityEndoCleanseBack On TractPrecision Probiotic Vital SporesTriple Action Nano-Silver Skin GelVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Acne is flexible, fixable, and 100% manageable. You just need the right plan and the commitment to stick with it. In this solo episode of Skin Talks, mother-daughter duo Beate & Natascha from Boutique Skin Envie break down what's really happening during a breakout, why spot-treating one pimple at a time keeps your acne coming back, and the proven products and in-clinic treatments they use with real clients every day. We cover the 4 root causes of every breakout, why mixing brands sabotages your results, the best acne lines we trust (ZO Skin Health, Vivier, GM Collin, Biologique Recherche, Biophora), pro treatments like chemical peels, microneedling, Morpheus8 and LED light therapy, plus the summer dos & don'ts and the everyday habits silently wrecking your skin (yes, your pillowcase and phone count). Whether you're dealing with teen acne, hormonal breakouts, cystic acne or post-acne scarring, this honest conversation will leave you hopeful and ready to take action.

In this episode of To The Root, the host for today is Abby Malloy, who sits down with Clear Skin Lab client Carita to discuss her long and emotional journey with cystic acne and the transition from conventional treatments to a functional, root-cause approach to healing.After developing severe acne in her mid-20s, Carita found herself struggling not only physically, but emotionally as well. She shares how acne affected her confidence, daily life, and overall well-being, including the frustration and fear that remained even after completing a full course of Accutane. While conventional treatments initially provided temporary improvement, the acne eventually returned, leaving her searching for answers beyond symptom management alone.Through comprehensive functional testing and personalized support, deeper imbalances were uncovered, including digestive dysfunction, gut imbalances, mineral deficiencies, chronic bloating, fatigue, and stress-related depletion that were contributing to both her skin concerns and overall health symptoms. Abby and Carita discuss the importance of addressing the body holistically and how foundational support for digestion, nutrient status, and gut health became key components of her healing journey.They also explore the emotional side of healing chronic skin conditions, including the patience required when progress feels slow, the discouragement that can arise during setbacks, and the mindset shift necessary to move away from chasing quick fixes. Carita reflects on how personalized guidance, data-driven testing, and long-term foundational care helped her build confidence not only in her skin, but in her overall health.Listen now!HighlightsCarita's experience developing cystic acne in her mid-20s after previously having clear skinThe emotional impact of chronic acne on confidence, mental health, and daily lifeHer experience with conventional acne treatments, including Accutane, antibiotics, and topical therapiesWhy symptom-based approaches failed to address the deeper causes of her skin concernsHow functional testing uncovered digestive dysfunction, gut imbalances, and mineral deficienciesThe connection between gut health, nutrient absorption, inflammation, and acneWhy mineral support became a foundational part of improving energy, digestion, and skin healthThe importance of patience and consistency throughout a long-term healing journeyHow progress tracking and retesting helped provide reassurance during setbacksWhy restrictive elimination diets were not the long-term solution for her healing processThe role of practitioner guidance and personalized support in navigating chronic skin concernsHow addressing overall health improved not only her skin, but also her energy, mood, and confidenceWhy true healing often requires supporting the entire body rather than focusing only on symptomsConnect with Robyn:Instagram: @nutritionbyrobyn Website: https://www.theclearskinlab.com

Your skin is more than what it looks like. It's the largest organ in your body, it's the first responder talking to your nervous system, your immune system, and your endocrine system, and it's covered in a living microbiome that's quietly doing protective work for you all day. Which means the stuff you put on it matters way more than you've been told. Today's guest is Jodie Scott, cofounder of Green Goo and a master's level expert in health psychology and psychoneuroimmunology, which is the connection between your immune system, nervous system, and psychology. Jodie spent years studying how the body actually works before building plant based alternatives to common first aid and personal care products. She knows what's in the products on most shelves, where those chemicals came from, and how they're affecting your body in ways you can't see. In this episode you'll hear what your skin microbiome actually is and why it matters, how phthalates, parabens, and petroleum can disrupt your hormones, mood, and sleep, why the "if it stings, it's working" myth is doing real damage to teen skin, and how to read product labels using free apps like Yuka and EWG Skin Deep. Plus the simple skincare ritual Jodie's own daughter uses ("Sanctuary Sunday") that pulls double duty as a stress reset for your nervous system. What your skin microbiome is and why it matters more than the products on top of it Why phthalates, parabens, and petroleum are called endocrine disruptors and how they mess with your hormones How modern skincare chemicals affect cortisol, inflammation, serotonin, and sleep (the negative feedback loop) Why "if it stings, it's working" is one of the biggest skincare myths and what it's actually doing to your skin The plant ingredients that calm skin without breaking the skin barrier (lavender, rosemary, calendula, beeswax) How to read a product label and check it in 10 seconds with the Yuka app or EWG Skin Deep database Why Korean skincare and other trending products aren't automatically clean The "Sanctuary Sunday" ritual that supports your skin and resets your nervous system at the same time How acne, eczema, and skin flare ups are tied to what you're putting on your skin every day Why your purchases are votes that actually change what brands put on shelves Parents: This one connects directly to so many of the things your teen is already navigating. Acne flare ups, hormone shifts during puberty, sleep struggles, anxiety, mood swings. Jodie breaks down the connection between everyday skincare ingredients and the systems that are already in flux during the teen years, and she gives you simple free tools (the Yuka app and EWG Skin Deep database) you can use the next time you're shopping together.

Today, we're speaking to Dr Eliza Hutchinson, a dermatology registrar and academic clinical fellow based at the Centre for Applied Excellence in Skin and Allergy Research at the University of Bristol.Title of paper: Eczema, acne, and psoriasis in people with skin of colour: a qualitative UK-based studyAvailable at: https://doi.org/10.3399/BJGP.2025.0720This study is the first, to the authors' knowledge, to explore the experiences of living with an inflammatory dermatosis specifically in people with skin of colour. We generated eight themes important to participants: delayed or missed diagnosis; preferences regarding healthcare professionals; lack of online information and social media use; misunderstandings in cultural communities; concerns about treatment and lack of research; complementary medicine use; experiences and impact of dyspigmentation; and challenges with structural racism. These findings offer insight into the complex experiences and challenges faced by UK adults with skin of colour living with eczema, acne, and psoriasis. Our practical points for primary care clinicians are a step towards facilitating mutual understanding and improving care for people with skin of colour.TranscriptThis transcript was generated using AI and has not been reviewed for accuracy. Please be aware it may contain errors or omissions.Speaker A00:00:00.560 - 00:00:53.150Hi and welcome to BJGP Interviews. I'm Nada Khan and I'm one of the Associate editors of the BJGP. In today's episode, we're speaking to Dr. Eliza Hutchinson.Eliza is a dermatology registrar and an academic clinical fellow and she's based at the Centre for Applied Excellence in Skin and Skin Allergy Research at the University of Bristol. We're here to talk about the paper she's just published in the bjgp and the paper is titled Eczema Acne and Psoriasis in People with Skin of Color.A Qualitative UK based Study. So, Eliza, it's lovely to meet you and thanks again for joining us to talk about this paper.But before we talk about the paper itself, I'm just wondering what made you specifically interested in researching skin conditions in skin of color?Speaker B00:00:53.550 - 00:01:34.700Yeah, thank you so much for having me.So I think people with skin of color have been and still are massively underrepresented in kind of medical curricula, learning resources, clinical trials. And I certainly remember when I was at medical school, I don't think I had any teaching on diverse skin tones at all.And so it was as I sort of learned more dermatology, I just became very aware that they are so underrepresented. And I think earlier work in this area, I really tried to improve education for medical students and healthcare professionals around skin of color.That was kind of my starting point.And then I realised actually there's very little, if anything actually on the experiences of people with skin of colour, which is kind of what led me to this project.Speaker A00:01:35.820 - 00:01:38.380And you work in dermatology, is that right?Speaker B00:01:38.460 - 00:01:42.300Yes, yes, I'm a dermatology registrar based in the Bristol Bath area.Speaker A00:01:42.540 - 00:02:06.890Great. So it's wonderful to have your expertise in this especially.And we may get into this sort of about sort of your perspective from secondary care as well, looking back into general practice as well. But this paper focuses on eczema, acne and psoriasis and these are conditions that we see a lot as gps.So why did you feel that this was an important area to look at for people with skin of colour?Speaker B00:02:07.290 - 00:02:41.470Yes, I mean, as you said, we know that skin conditions are super common.They make up over 14% of GP consultations and eczema, acne and psoriasis are some of the most common inflammatory skin conditions we see and we know that they have a significant burden on everyone that experiences them.But I think particularly in people with skin of colour, we already know that these people experience kind of increasing things like Dispigmentation, so skin tone getting lighter or darker from their skin condition. And yeah, I think I just wanted to focus on some of the more common conditions that are seen kind of day to day in primary care.Speaker A00:02:42.110 - 00:02:54.890And this was a qualitative study and you emphasized that you really wanted to understand the experiences of people here. So talk us through a bit what you did. You spoke to people who had these conditions and had skin of colour?Speaker B00:02:55.050 - 00:03:26.060Yes. So we recruited using online methods for a couple of reasons, but really wanted to get kind of diverse range of experiences from across the uk.So we started off with an online survey and that was open to people of all skin tones. And we have written this up as a separate paper which should be out hopefully in the next few months.But based on these responses, we then kind of purposefully recruited people with skin of color to take part in an online one to one interview. And so we spoke to 20 different people with skin of colour as part of this.Speaker A00:03:26.460 - 00:03:40.300And I think one of the really interesting things that came out and is running as a strong theme through the paper is that skin conditions can present really differently in skin of colour. Can you explain a bit about what that means in practice as well?Speaker B00:03:40.700 - 00:04:49.210Yeah. So we know that skin conditions can look and behave very differently in people with skin of colour compared to white skin.So for example, eczema is typically in a kind of flexural distribution in people with white skin, so like in the elbow creases behind the knees.But in people with skin of colour it might be more likely to be on the extensor surfaces, it might be in a sort of discoid type pattern, so kind of well defined round patches or sort of a follicular pattern is another one we see. So if you look at medical textbooks and what we're taught at medical school, we just don't see pictures of these presentations.And I think another big thing is obviously redness is much less obvious in skin of colour. So that's typically what we would associate with skin inflammation is redness and it is much less obvious.And instead in darker skin tones it might look kind of purpley. Brownie might not be as obvious. And certainly in the interviews we found that patients were aware of this as well.So they were looking at their own skin and not picking up that it was kind of actively inflamed. They didn't know what it was and they'd go and see a GP or another healthcare professional in primary care and they also wouldn't know.And then it's just kind of leading to Delayed diagnosis, misdiagnoses.Speaker A00:04:50.140 - 00:05:16.780Yeah, And I think that's certainly something. So the people you spoke to described these delays in diagnosis and also this uncertainty from clinicians.And I do wonder if that is reflected in what we learn and what the wider public understand is what inflammation might look like as well. So I wonder what really stood out to you from these experiences.So how did people and clinicians sort of navigate those delays and uncertainty as well?Speaker B00:05:17.320 - 00:05:44.760What was quite shocking was in terms of the misdiagnosis a lot of the time, infection and infestation.So, for example, scabies was a big one that people were misdiagnosed with, and that in some circumstances did lead to kind of stigmatisation, psychological distress, embarrassment, and then people were more afraid to seek help. Further delays in diagnosis. Yeah, I think that was the thing that struck me the most in terms of this problem.Speaker A00:05:45.240 - 00:06:00.040And you've mentioned this, you talked about dyspigmentation, and that came through as well very strongly in the interviews. And I think that's probably a problem that's specific to skin of color as well.And can you talk through why that came up as such an important issue for patients in this study?Speaker B00:06:00.760 - 00:06:46.890Yeah, of course. So I think we already know that dyspigmentation.So skin tone usually getting darker, but sometimes lighter as a result of skin inflammation, we know that it is more common in darker skin tones just because they've got more melanin there to start with. But the thing that struck me in these interviews was just the profound impact that this can have on patients.So embarrassment, isolation, body dysmorphia. There's a lot of misunderstanding as well, kind of within certain communities about what causes it.And some people experience negative comments from within their own community, from friends and family, which really exacerbated that kind of psychosocial impact even more. And obviously, skin tone is massively tied into kind of identity, and the impact on people's wellbeing was just. Yeah, it was huge.Speaker A00:06:47.690 - 00:06:58.490And coming from a general practice perspective, it sometimes feels like the treatment options for dyspigmentation are really...

Sisley Fraser - The Acne Nutritionist, holistic nutritionist, and one of the leading voices in functional skin health - joins Dr. Will Cole for a comprehensive, root-cause conversation on what acne is actually communicating and what to do about it. They cover the gut-skin axis, TCM face mapping, how acne timing in the menstrual cycle points to specific hormonal imbalances, the A1 vs. A2 dairy debate, phytoestrogenic foods as gentle estrogen modulators, xenoestrogens and the toxic bucket, why most people's skincare routines are making their acne worse, and the case for going pro-fruit. Sisley also shares her minimalist skincare protocol - including Manuka honey as a morning mask - and why the conventional "avoid all dairy, restrict everything" approach is creating more problems than it solves.

In this episode of To The Root, the host for today is Abby Malloy, who sits down with Clear Skin Lab client Jamie to discuss her long journey with acne and the transition from conventional treatments to a functional, root-cause approach to healing. After years of relying on Accutane, birth control, topical treatments, antibiotics, lasers, and restrictive diets, Jamie found herself frustrated by temporary solutions that never addressed the underlying causes of her skin concerns.Following the decision to come off birth control, Jamie experienced severe post-pill acne that significantly impacted her confidence and quality of life. Through comprehensive functional testing and personalized support, deeper imbalances were uncovered, including iron dysregulation, cortisol imbalances, digestive dysfunction, and mineral deficiencies that were contributing not only to her acne, but also to fatigue, poor sleep, and overall stress on the body.Abby and Jamie discuss the foundational strategies that helped support lasting skin improvements, including prioritizing hydration, balancing meals, supporting digestion, improving stress resilience, and focusing on nutrient-dense foods rather than restrictive elimination diets. Jamie also shares the emotional side of struggling with chronic acne and how gaining a deeper understanding of her body transformed both her skin health and confidence.This episode offers an encouraging perspective for anyone navigating persistent acne and highlights the importance of addressing the body holistically rather than relying solely on symptom-based treatments.So, listen now!Highlights:Jamie's experience with acne began during puberty and worsened after stopping birth controlThe limitations of conventional acne treatments, including Accutane, antibiotics, and topical therapiesWhy temporary symptom management failed to address the root causes of her skin concernsHow functional testing revealed iron dysregulation, cortisol imbalances, digestive dysfunction, and mineral deficienciesThe connection between low iron, fatigue, and inflammatory acneThe role of nutrition, hydration, digestion, and stress management in supporting skin healingWhy a non-restrictive, nutrient-focused approach made long-term healing more sustainableThe emotional impact of chronic acne and rebuilding confidence throughout the healing processHow understanding the body holistically created lasting improvements in both skin and overall wellnessConnect with Robyn:Instagram: @nutritionbyrobyn Website: https://www.theclearskinlab.com

The skincare advice that we see on social media is often not the skincare advice that's going to help our skin the most. In fact, it's often the opposite. The stuff that goes viral that we're like, "Wait, this is everywhere. Should I try this?" can cause us to waste our money and sometimes wreck our skin. So today, celebrity dermatologist Dr. Sam Ellis joins me to rank skincare advice from the internet (from superior advice to advice you should ignore). Dr. Samantha Ellis is a board-certified dermatologist who has hundreds of thousands of followers online and is basically impossible to get into to see in real life, but today we get to pick her brain for free. 

We've all been through puberty. It was sometimes traumatic, mostly awkward, it even had its endearing moments - and going through it shaped the way we think about ourselves and how we show up in the world.

This week on The Dr. Youn Show, Dr. Anthony Youn is joined by dermatologist Dr. Emily Levin for a special “Ask the Dermatologist” episode, answering real listener questions about the most common, and most frustrating, skin concerns people deal with every day.  They break down everything from seborrheic dermatitis, cystic acne, rosacea, melasma, keloids, KP (“chicken skin”), stretch marks, and spider veins to GLP-1 related skin changes, hair loss, sunscreen, Korean skincare, and whether red light therapy can worsen melasma. They also discuss Accutane myths, the truth about collagen loss during weight loss, scar treatments that actually work, and why some viral skincare trends may be doing more harm than good. Plus, Dr. Levin shares her honest thoughts on cosmetic treatments, laser therapy, pregnancy-related skin changes, eczema triggers, and the biggest misconceptions people have about dermatology and anti-aging.

Health/lifestyle consultant, 14-year carnivore and drummer Phil Escott got chronically ill as a vegetarian, and his body revolted with psoriatic arthritis and other autoimmune conditions in 2010, leaving him unable to move without severe pain, let alone drum or exercise, and he had to throw out all his existing “expertise” and start from scratch. Phil's eventual combination of a carnivore diet with EMF and artificial light avoidance, cold thermogenesis and a range of other health enhancing practices reversed the “incurable” diseases that he suffered from. His book “Arthritis, The Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me” gained a foreword by Dr. Jack Kruse and has become an Amazon Kindle bestseller and is now available in print. Phil talks from personal experience about contemporary lifestyle and diet choices, disconnects from our ancestral heritage, emotional balancing and the simple but often misunderstood nature of spiritual awakening. He now consults with clients worldwide helping them to reverse their metabolic and autoimmune issues and runs The Big Fat Challenge with Ben Hunt as his main project. His latest book, the "Red Pill Revolution" is awesome. Melissa Lim is a Canadian American Pharmacist and volleyball player/enthusiast. She was inspired by a previous episode with "meat militia" member Phil Escott and leader Dr Bart Kay. Her journey on completely overhauling her diet has had life changing results, from getting rid of Acne she has had since age 9, to an energy level and clarity that is shooting through the roof. The chronological path of paying it forward continues. 02:39 - Melissa's journey to carnivorism, the ailments the journey, the right path, Phils tells his journey of the same that led to his first book 26:23 - Why carnivorism is now a growing culture, not a diet but a species appropriate way of life, how to maintain sources of vitamin C, discussing the notion that athletes "need" carbohydrates or not, the glycemic chart and how to use it 39:33 - Having the difficult discussion with loved ones on the benefits or health changes, perhaps best to lead by example and show the results, first-hand, understanding that the opposition is not monolithic, the division between the stubborn, the willfully ignorant, and how the sales pitch can help people or turn them off 50:01 - Getting rid of foods that are addictive and diminishing your quality of life, who needs this more than most and how to help 1:12:33 - The silly notion of this being a "grift" (the censorship, the loss of reputation, the amount of work being done for free), the perfect "stool" lol, the attack by General Mills on our breakfast index, and why none of it was scientific 1:23:42 - Meds that help and meds that kick the can down the road, the leaky gut, inflammation, HDL and LDL and how people misinterpret it, what you are being told to do, vs the one who has to live with the results (you), plus, what feeds the gut Biome? 1:37:39 - HDL and LDL and how people misinterpret it, seed oils, and throwing away the meat for the sins of the bun, plus, new events, retreats, seminars and getaways

Today, I have the honor of interviewing Dr. Doris Day, a board-certified dermatologist who specializes in cosmetic and longevity dermatology. She is also a clinical professor of dermatology at NYU, recognized for her dedication and excellence in teaching, and is widely regarded as a leader in the aesthetic dermatology field. In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Day is a medical journalist and a prominent media figure. In our discussion, we examine the basics of perimenopause and menopause from a pathophysiology perspective, including the 30% decline in collagen synthesis that occurs during the first five years of menopause. We explore the skin microbiome, inflammation, and inflammaging, and why hydration, electrolytes, reducing processed sugars, and eating a nutrient-dense diet can have such a visible impact on skin health. Dr. Day also explains her approach to facial balancing and how our bones, fascia, muscles, and fat pads age. We discuss topical agents, advanced interventions including lasers, microneedling, PRF, PRP, stem cells, and growth factors, and even touch on emerging research suggesting that certain laser treatments may help reduce the risk of skin cancer. Throughout the conversation, I also openly shared what I have done to support my skin. Stay tuned for today's fascinating conversation about menopause, skin health, collagen loss, and the evolving science behind modern aesthetic dermatology. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: The sudden skin changes many women experience during early perimenopause Dr. Day explains how she personalizes skincare routines for each patient How collagen synthesis rapidly declines during the menopause transition How hydration, sleep, and nutrition can visibly improve skin tone and puffiness How inflammation, blood sugar issues, and poor metabolic health contribute to inflammaging and visible skin aging Why facial balance is more important than trying to erase every wrinkle or line Dr. Day shares how she combines lasers, topicals, and recovery protocols to support skin healing and collagen production How fillers and other cosmetic procedures can create an unnatural appearance when used incorrectly Bio: Dr. Doris Day, MD, is a board-certified dermatologist specializing in cosmetic and longevity dermatology.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Oliver Liu of Hypothesis to unpack one of the most misunderstood areas in skincare today: the microbiome. While the term has become a marketing staple, this conversation reveals just how early we still are in understanding the microbial ecosystems that shape skin health—and why most current treatments fail to reflect that complexity.Oliver reframes common conditions like acne and eczema as problems of imbalance, not simple bacterial overgrowth. In eczema, a weakened barrier, immune dysregulation, and the presence of Staphylococcus aureus create a self-reinforcing cycle of inflammation and irritation. In acne, it's not the presence of bacteria that drives breakouts—but which strains dominate. This shift challenges the long-standing idea that eliminating bacteria altogether is the solution.That insight exposes a deeper flaw in traditional treatments. Broad-spectrum approaches like benzoyl peroxide and antibiotics remove both harmful and beneficial microbes, often leading to temporary relief followed by recurrence, increased sensitivity, and long-term imbalance.The conversation then turns to a new model: precision skincare. Inspired by naturally occurring enzymes, Oliver explains how targeted approaches can selectively eliminate harmful bacteria without disrupting the surrounding ecosystem—preserving balance while addressing the root cause.This episode ultimately reframes skincare as ecosystem management, not correction.Listen to the full episode to hear Oliver break down the science of the microbiome and why the future of skincare lies in precision, not force.Shop HypothesisDon't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!*This is a sponsored collaborationSupport the show

Have you ever noticed how some women walk into a room and instantly feel grounded, calm, elegant, and magnetic? In this episode, I share why posture is about so much more than “standing up straight.” Your posture reflects your nervous system, emotional state, stress patterns, confidence, and how safe your body feels internally. We also explore how chronic stress, hypervigilance, over-responsibility, emotional tension, and even nervous system dysregulation can subtly shape the body over time and how small shifts can completely change the way you feel, move, and present yourself.Shop my skincare products to keep your skin looking radiant this season: https://alwaysradiantskinshop.com/Step into your Radiance Sanctuary in the Membership https://www.theschoolofradiance.com/membershipFor more resources related to today's episode, click here for the podcast episode page: https://www.theschoolofradiance.com/podcasts Follow Rachel Varga Official on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachelvargaofficial/ —Catch full episodes of The School of Radiance Podcast here on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@RachelVargaOfficial —Subscribe to the YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@RachelVargaOfficial —Follow me here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachelvargaofficial/ Facebook: https://www.instagram.com/rachelvargaofficial/ Website: https://www.theschoolofradiance.com —FREE STUFF: Download my FREE Skincare Checklist, sign up for my FREE 30 minute biohack your way to clear skin and slowing aging training now, and my newsletter for promos and exclusive events just for you! https://www.theschoolofradiance.com/freebiesEveryone gets one FREE call!

Teen periods are getting worse — and it's not just "normal hormones."

We also get some sweet insight into her newborn baby's acne and sneezing. And finally, she tells us about how she used GNM to help her friend's kids resolve an ongoing cough.It is so incredible to hear how this German New Medicine can give us such an in depth insight into our children's lives and help them resolve symptoms before they become chronic. So many good lessons here, thank you Jane:)

In this episode of To The Root, Robyn Spangler provides a clear, evidence-informed breakdown of three common skin concerns: the connection between H. pylori and acne, why breakouts often flare after travel, and the deeper physiological factors that can contribute to persistent neck acne.Robyn explains how infections like H. pylori rarely occur in isolation—they often take advantage of underlying vulnerabilities such as low minerals, poor metabolic function, or digestive imbalance. She also explores the mechanisms behind post-vacation skin disruptions, from halogen exposure in water to microbiome shifts and changes in environmental toxicants.For those struggling with neck acne, Robyn emphasizes the importance of evaluating the lymphatic system, iodine status, mineral balance, and gut health, rather than relying on generic or surface-level solutions. Her professional yet practical guidance underscores the core principle of functional dermatology: meaningful, lasting skin improvements come from addressing the internal terrain—not just the symptoms.Listen now!If you're ready to understand your skin on a deeper level and want professional support in interpreting your labs or developing a personalized plan, the Clear Skin Lab team is here to help.

We explore how collagen production changes over time, why fibroblast activity is key for maintaining structure and elasticity, and what happens when senescent (“zombie”) cells begin to accumulate in the body.Radiance isn't created through one treatment or one product.It's built through consistency, through supporting your body at a cellular level, and through making choices that allow your skin to repair, regenerate, and thrive over time.Shop my skincare products to keep your skin looking radiant this season: https://alwaysradiantskinshop.com/Step into your Radiance Sanctuary in the Membership https://www.theschoolofradiance.com/membershipFor more resources related to today's episode, click here for the podcast episode page: https://www.theschoolofradiance.com/podcasts Follow Rachel Varga Official on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachelvargaofficial/ —Catch full episodes of The School of Radiance Podcast here on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@RachelVargaOfficial —Subscribe to the YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@RachelVargaOfficial —Follow me here:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachelvargaofficial/ Facebook: https://www.instagram.com/rachelvargaofficial/ Website: https://www.theschoolofradiance.com —FREE STUFF: Download my FREE Skincare Checklist, sign up for my FREE 30 minute biohack your way to clear skin and slowing aging training now, and my newsletter for promos and exclusive events just for you! https://www.theschoolofradiance.com/freebiesEveryone gets one FREE call!

Holden Hughes was a 14-year-old freshman and football player at an elite CaliforniaCatholic school when he put on a friend's prescription acne mask at asleep over. Three years later, in the summer of 2020 during Covid shutdowns andBLM protests, a parent obtained that old photo, posted it to social media calling it “blackface,” and organized a protest at the school, all within hours. By the next day, St. Francis High School told Holden and his family:withdraw or be expelled. No investigation. No hearing. No due process. In spring 2024, a California jury sided with Holden and set a legal precedent that private high schools must provide fair procedure before expelling students. Dr.Phil sits down with Holden and his parents, Frank and Wendy, to hear his story: what really happened that night, what the mob did to his family, and whether a jury verdict can give back the senior year, and the reputation, that was taken from him.Thank you to our sponsors that made this episode possible:You Can Do It Foundation supports meaningful media that reflects faith, family, personal responsibility, and freedom.

Have you spent probably hundreds of dollars over the years on skincare and haircare and wondered why you're not getting the results you want? Well today, we're going to change that. I chat with a top dermatologist about every common skincare concern (acne, skin barrier damage, dark spots, pores, aging, hair loss) and we get into the real root causes, what actually works, what's a waste of money, what you're probably doing wrong, and the one thing that you can do tonight that will make your skin look better by tomorrow morning. My expert guest is Dr. Samantha Ellis, a board certified, celebrity dermatologist who teaches at UC Davis. She's become one of the most trusted voices in dermatology with hundreds of thousands of followers online who rely on her deeply science grounded advice. Today, she's going to help all of us get the skin and hair that we deserve.

If there are five people in a room with eczema, they're probably all dealing with it for completely different reasons.And that's something we don't talk about enough.Eczema, acne, psoriasis… these are rarely just skin issues. They're often a reflection of what's happening inside the body, particularly in the gut.So instead of just asking what to put on your skin, this episode is about asking a better question. What's actually driving this underneath?My guest today is Farzanah Nasser, a registered nutritionist and certified functional medicine practitioner specialising in gut health, immune health and chronic skin conditions.She works with people every day, dealing with long-standing skin issues using a practical, gut-first approach.She's also the author of “The Everyday High-Fibre Plan”, full of simple, gut-friendly recipes… including those cookies on the table if you're watching on YouTube

If your skin has been dry, tight, red, bumpy, stinging, or just… not responding to anything you throw at it, start here. Almost every skin concern you're dealing with is either caused by, worsened by, or masking a barrier problem — and today we're going all the way back to the foundation.

In this episode of Derms and Conditions, host James Q. Del Rosso, DO, is joined by Heather Woolery-Lloyd, MD, for a treatment-focused discussion on acne management in an era where patient expectations, product awareness, and regimen complexity continue to rise.   The conversation opens with a shift many dermatologists are seeing in practice: patients arriving more informed and more influenced by social media, asking detailed questions about ingredients, formulations, and skin care routines. This evolving dynamic requires clinicians to not only select effective therapies but also contextualize an expanding array of over-the-counter and adjunctive options.   Dr Woolery-Lloyd and Dr Del Rosso revisit foundational therapies such as benzoyl peroxide, addressing concerns around benzene and reinforcing its continued role as a reliable, effective agent. They emphasize the importance of formulation and tolerability, noting that lower concentrations (around 4% or less) can offer similar efficacy with reduced irritation when well-formulated.   A central theme is the growing importance of the skin barrier and microbiome in acne management. The speakers highlight how barrier-supportive skin care, including moisturizers and adjunctive products, can improve both tolerability and clinical outcomes. They underscore that regimen success often depends on the full system of care, not just prescription therapies.   The discussion also explores newer over-the-counter formulations, including polyhydroxy acids for gentle exfoliation, multifunctional moisturizers targeting post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and emerging adjuncts like hypochlorous acid sprays (particularly useful for truncal acne).   Throughout, the episode reinforces a practical message: effective acne management today requires thoughtful integration of prescription therapies, formulation science, and patient-centered skin care guidance. Tune in to the episode to hear how clinicians are navigating increasingly informed patients, optimizing tolerability without sacrificing efficacy, and building acne regimens that account for both therapeutic impact and real-world adherence.

Before launching her wellness brand, Katie spent 14 years in television, working with Hockey Night in Canada and as an on-air location host for a lifestyle magazine show. But behind the scenes, she was quietly battling stubborn acne that no cream or cleanse could fix.  Determined to find answers, Katie went back to school to study holistic nutrition. What she discovered changed everything: breakouts are often a reflection of what's happening inside the body. That led her to develop The Five Acne-Clearing Pillars—gut health, detoxification, hormonal balance, emotional well-being, and nourishing skincare.  Today, Katie and her all-female team walk clients through The Clear Skin Solution—a 6-month program combining personalized nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle support to help women feel confident in their skin again.  She also hosts The Clear Skin Chronicles, the #1 Nutrition Podcast on Apple, sharing expert insights and stories to empower women from the inside out. As a podcast host, Katie uses her platform to share her story and inspire women to reclaim their health and confidence. Acne once dominated her life, but by taking control, she turned it into a force for good—empowering women to glow from the inside out. https://katiestewartwellness.com/  https://www.instagram.com/katiestewartwellness/ https://www.facebook.com/katiestewartcoaching MY PARTNERS: HERBAL FACE FOOD Stubborn eczema, red spots, aging spots, or acne on your face, chest, arms, or back from hormones or hard water damage? I have something SO amazing for you. Our mineral-heavy water started impacting my skin the moment we moved, and I had never experienced eczema or skin issues in my life. Hard water can strip natural oils, disrupt the microbiome, and weaken the skin barrier — leaving you inflamed, reactive, and stuck in flare-ups. That's exactly what happened to my neck, and within almost two weeks of using Herbal Face Food, my eczema is almost gone. This stuff is legit — and I only share my favorite things that actually work. Their formulas are made with ultra-potent, organic, whole-plant botanicals rich in antioxidants, polyphenols, and phytonutrients that calm inflammation, rebuild the skin barrier, and fight visible signs of aging instead of masking symptoms. The Cure is their most targeted antioxidant treatment designed to visibly improve stubborn concerns like eczema, melasma, rosacea, scarring, sun damage, and deeper signs of aging. The Cream is a deeply hydrating, ultra-potent botanical moisturizer that firms, smooths, strengthens the skin barrier, and helps reduce fine lines and wrinkles. The Soap gently cleanses without stripping, using powerful plant concentrates to protect, nourish, and support healthy, youthful-looking skin on both the face and body. If your skin has been struggling from hormones, environmental stress, hard water damage, or premature aging, I'm sharing exactly what I'm using and why it's working.
