On today's episode, Luis discusses how our skin health is affected by our hormones, and by our liver health. Everything from acne, rashes, eczema, and psoriasis can be caused by impurities coming out through your skin when your liver is overtaxed.The focus is usually on sex hormones, but stress hormones can also tax your liver, which then can trigger flare ups.We can work with chronic stress externally, as well as internally by removing foods from our diets that can trigger an adrenal response.

In this episode of the Homeopathy 247 Podcast, host Mary Greensmith is joined by homeopath Tracey Campbell to explore the complex world of skin conditions—especially eczema—and how homeopathy can offer gentle, effective support. Tracey shares her journey into full-time practice and her passion for working with individualised homeopathic care. Why Skin Needs a Deeper Look Tracey explains that skin conditions like eczema are often signs of a deeper imbalance within the body—not just surface issues to be suppressed. She discusses how symptoms like fungal infections, sunburn, or rashes might look similar, but each person's underlying cause is unique. That's why homeopathy for eczema isn't a one-size-fits-all approach—it's tailored to the whole person. Understanding the Whole Picture Rather than focusing solely on the skin, homeopaths explore diet, stress, environment, emotional wellbeing, and personal history. Tracey highlights how symptoms like eczema often follow earlier issues like nappy rash or allergies, and might later be linked to conditions like asthma. Homeopathy looks to support the body holistically and prevent deeper health issues from developing. Matching Remedies to People, Not Just Conditions Tracey walks us through how homeopaths use repertories and materia medica to match skin symptoms—such as dryness, oozing, or itchiness—with constitutional patterns. For example, someone with moist eczema might need a completely different remedy than someone with dry, bumpy eruptions. Emotional state, digestion, sleep, and stress levels all influence remedy choice. Homeopathy Builds Long-Term Resilience Homeopathy for eczema doesn't just treat the symptom—it helps the body strengthen from within. Tracey describes how regular constitutional prescribing can reduce susceptibility and improve the immune system's ability to handle stress, allergens, and life changes. The goal is long-term resilience—not just short-term relief. Potency and Patience: A Gentle Approach Tracey also explains how potencies are selected with care. With sensitive skin, lower potencies and gentle prescribing are often best. Healing may take time—especially for chronic eczema—but meaningful change is possible, and the process is empowering. Connecting with the Body As clients begin homeopathic care, they also start reconnecting with their bodies—tracking changes, understanding patterns, and becoming more in tune with what their body needs. Tracey notes that this self-awareness is a beautiful part of the healing journey. Homeopathy for eczema is about so much more than skin—it's about understanding the whole person and helping the body heal from the inside out. With curiosity, patience, and support, long-term transformation is possible.

Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat, the podcast where we cut through the noise and myths swirling around modern healthcare—one evidence-based conversation at a time. I'm Dr. Mark Bonta, and in today's episode, get ready to hear from one of our returning guests: Dr. Samira Jeimy, allergist, immunologist, associate professor, and the straight-talking force behind Allergies Explained.Dr. Jeimy is here to tackle her “Top 10 Propaganda Pieces” as an allergy expert—the big healthcare myths, media soundbites, and outright scams that drive her up the wall. From debunking the so-called ‘immunity debt' theory and the raw milk craze, to exposing the truth behind pricey food intolerance tests and the seductive marketing of wellness supplements, she brings a blend of humor, clinical wisdom, and no-nonsense clarity.You'll hear why “natural” doesn't always mean safe, how supplement and testing industries prey on patient anxiety, and why stories—more than science—often shape the health choices we make. Dr. Jeimy also takes us inside the real conversations she has with patients confused by allergy myths, and how she helps untangle fact from fiction, one appointment at a time.Whether you're a healthcare professional, a chronic allergy sufferer, a concerned parent, or just tired of being bamboozled in the supplement aisle, this episode brings fresh perspective, sharp debunking, and a dose of laughter to your feed. So cozy up and get ready to ditch the misinformation, as we dive into the truth behind the top allergy and immunology myths with Dr. Samira Jeimy.Episode HighlightsImmunity Debt Myth Don't believe the narrative that lack of infection "weakens" your immune system; real harm comes from infections, not their absence.Food Intolerance Tests Are Useless Expensive food intolerance tests measure exposure, not intolerance, leading to wasted money and unnecessary diet restrictions.Natural Isn't Always Safe “Natural” products (like raw milk, plant oils) aren't automatically safe—many can cause harm or severe allergic reactions.Eczema Not About Food Eliminating foods often doesn't cure eczema; the real issue is inflammation of the skin, not food allergies.Overtesting Creates False Allergies Unnecessary allergy testing leads to false positives, unhelpful labels, and dangerous food restrictions.Episode Timestamps 4:16 — Influencer Impact on Health Information 6:35 — "Storytelling's Impact in Tech and Health" 12:51 — Health Concerns or Misdirection? 16:52 — Food Desensitization and Lifestyle Changes 20:07 — Countering Misinformation on Allergies 21:46 — Dietary Restrictions and Relationship Strain 25:24 — Immune System Overreaction Dangers 27:48 — Benadryl: Canada's Sole IV Antihistamine 31:12 — Dairy, Sugar, and Skin Health 35:08 — Unreported Complementary Health Treatments 38:52 — The Limitations of Unvalidated Diagnostic Tests 42:46 — Dr. Jamie: Compassionate Healthcare AdvocateDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

In this week's episode, Dr. Fiona Lovely sits down with Kim Casaburi, co-founder of Serotonin Centers, esthetician, and passionate menopause wellness advocate, for a powerful and empowering conversation about reclaiming midlife health through hormone optimization and functional medicine. After facing years of unexplained weight gain, fatigue, and emotional struggles, Kim shares how her search for answers led her to hormone replacement therapy (HRT)—a turning point after being dismissed by traditional medical professionals. She opens up about the medical gaslighting many women face and how she found her vitality again through functional, whole-body care. Kim also dives deep into the connection between hormones and skin health, sharing why aesthetic treatments like microneedling and HydraFacials fall short when hormones are out of balance—likening it to “pouring water into a bucket with a hole.” She explains why testosterone is not just for men and how it supports women's confidence, energy, and emotional resilience. Together, Dr. Lovely and Kim explore the need to shatter outdated medical narratives around menopause, embrace personalized care, and prioritize thriving—not just surviving—in midlife and beyond. What You'll Hear: Kim's personal journey through misdiagnosis and healing The overlooked impact of hormone imbalance on skin and vitality Testosterone: the misunderstood hormone women need too How Serotonin Centers blend HRT, aesthetics, and wellness coaching The stigma around menopause in conventional medicine Why hormone health is a cornerstone of longevity A call to action for women to own their needs and advocate for themselves You can learn more about Kim Casaburi and the services offered at Serotonin Centers by visiting www.serotonincenters.com. Offerings include hormone optimization, PRP microneedling, IV therapy, HydraFacials, and more.. Final thoughts from Kim: “Stand up straight. Stop hiding your pain.

What do your skin, your gut, and your daily habits have in common?  Dr. Mary Alice Mina and Dr. Katrina Coulter take a deep dive into the powerful connection between gut health, skin health, and the impact of today's food systems. They explore the importance of maintaining a healthy microbiome through a diverse, fiber-rich diet, fermented foods, and mindful antibiotic use. You'll learn how hydration, sleep, exercise, and lifestyle choices shape gut microbiome diversity—and why even small daily habits matter. They also discuss the effects of antibiotics on both gut and skin, discuss the role of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics, and share insights into GLP-1 agonists and gut health. Plus, they explain simple ways to assess gut health through digestion and other key indicators. If you've ever wondered how to support your skin and gut without overcomplicating things, this is your go-to guide for simple, everyday shifts!   Key Takeaways: - The gut microbiome consists of trillions of microbes essential for human health. - Skin and gut health are interconnected, with imbalances leading to inflammation. - Industrialized food systems contribute to the loss of microbiome diversity. - Fiber is crucial for gut health, with most people consuming far too little. - Fermented foods provide beneficial bacteria and support gut health. - Prebiotics are the food that gut bacteria thrive on, primarily fiber. - Probiotics are live beneficial microbes that support gut health. - Antibiotics can disrupt both gut and skin health, leading to various side effects. - Minimizing the use of antibiotics is important for maintaining gut health. - A diverse diet rich in whole foods is essential for a healthy microbiome.  - Hydration can significantly impact health, including skin and urinary tract health. - Antibiotics are often overprescribed; not every condition requires them. - Sedentary lifestyles negatively affect gut microbiome diversity. - Basic lifestyle changes can lead to significant health improvements. - The gut plays a crucial role in immune function and overall health. - Eating locally can enhance gut health and biodiversity. - GLP-1 agonists may shift gut microbiome profiles positively. - Regular bowel movements are a key indicator of gut health. - Keeping a food diary can help identify gut health issues. - Skin conditions may be linked to gut health and dietary choices.

The intersection of nutrition, dermatology, and skin health is an area of growing interest, yet one that remains riddled with misinformation and oversimplified claims. The influence of dietary patterns, specific nutrients, and lifestyle factors on conditions such as acne, eczema, psoriasis, and skin aging has been widely debated, with varying levels of evidence supporting different interventions. While some nutritional strategies may play a role in optimizing skin health, the challenge lies in distinguishing practical, evidence-based approaches from overstated or anecdotal claims. A significant issue in this space is the naturalistic fallacy—the belief that diet alone can replace medical treatments, or that conventional dermatological interventions should be avoided in favor of “natural” approaches. This has led to widespread vilification of certain foods, such as dairy, gluten, and sugar, despite a lack of strong supporting data. Similarly, supplements and probiotics are often promoted with broad claims, while their actual efficacy is highly context-dependent—varying based on individual nutrient status, disease severity, and baseline dietary intake. In this episode, Dr. Thivi Maruthappu, a consultant dermatologist and researcher in nutritional dermatology, joins Danny Lennon to explore the current state of evidence in this field. Guest Information Dr Thivi Maruthappu MA PhD FRCP ANutr is a consultant dermatologist, nutritionist and leading researcher. As the UK's first and only dual-qualified dermatologist and nutritionist, her pioneering expertise bridges the gap between diet and skin health. Dr Thivi continues to work in the NHS and has her own practice based at London's renowned Cleveland Clinic. Dr Thivi studied Medicine at Oxford University and completed Dermatology training in London. She undertook a PhD to understand the links between our skin and internal health and this research featured in top tier scientific journals. She is one of a handful of dermatologists to have completed training in severe eczema and psoriasis during a fellowship at St John's Institute of Dermatology, London and achieved a Certificate in Nutrition Science from Stanford Medical School, USA.

In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Ekta is joined by Alanna Tran, the visionary founder of BiotechBeauty, for a conversation that redefines what beauty products can be. After battling acne and feeling let down by harsh skincare and pore-clogging makeup, Alanna set out to build a new kind of beauty brand—one that merges scientific rigor with skin-first performance. What began as a personal quest turned into a clinical, research-backed mission to create makeup that actively supports skin health.BiotechBeauty is disrupting the industry by going beyond surface-level claims and buzzwords. Alanna breaks down how the brand conducts clinical trials, tests for microbiome safety, and avoids “science washing”—the all-too-common practice of adding tiny amounts of active ingredients just for marketing. Instead, BiotechBeauty includes meaningful levels of skin-benefiting ingredients that have measurable, proven effects.Listeners will get an inside look at how BiotechBeauty's signature products, like the BiomeBlush®, are formulated to support acne-prone and sensitive skin without compromising on wear, pigment, or performance. Alanna also shares how biotech-derived ingredients, like sugarcane squalane and vegan collagen, are helping the brand deliver sustainable beauty solutions with integrity.If you're tired of choosing between makeup that looks good and skincare that works, this episode is a must-listen. Alanna's approach is proof that beauty can be clean, effective, microbiome-safe—and gorgeous.

In this thought-provoking episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ben Johnson, founder of Osmosis Skincare, returns to challenge everything you think you know about skincare. From overprescribed medications to the obsession with exfoliation, Dr. Johnson breaks down why the industry's go-to methods might be doing more harm than good.He takes us behind the scenes of traditional dermatology, calling out harsh treatments like antibiotics, Accutane, and peels that treat symptoms but ignore root causes. Instead, he promotes a whole-body approach—one that starts with gut health, hormonal balance, and inflammation control.One standout topic? The exfoliation myth. Dr. Johnson explains why that post-peel “glow” might actually be trauma, not health. Rather than stripping the skin, he advocates for strengthening it—protecting the barrier, supporting circulation, and embracing intelligent ingredients that nourish rather than inflame.The conversation also rethinks cleansing, highlighting Osmosis's Purify Cleanser as a model for how skincare can be both gentle and effective. Plus, Dr. Johnson shares new insights into the gut-skin axis, the post-COVID microbiome shift, and how popular supplements might be contributing to skin issues like SIBO and H. pylori flares.If you're tired of the same old skincare advice, this episode offers a refreshing, science-driven alternative. It's not just about looking good—it's about helping your skin function as it was meant to. Tune in for a deep, transformative look at what it really means to have healthy skin.CHAPTERS:(0:02) – Introduction: Welcoming Dr. Ben Johnson(1:11) – Realizing the Flaws in Traditional Dermatology(3:50) – The Obsession with Exfoliation in Skincare(5:16) – The Truth About Exfoliation and Its Harmful Effects(7:23) – How Exfoliation Affects the Skin's Natural Barrier(9:02) – The Concept of "Glow" and Alternative Approaches(11:01) – The Importance of Proper Cleansing in Skincare(12:50) – The Right Balance for Cleansing: Lipids and Surfactants(15:18) – The Microbiome: Keeping It Intact for Healthy Skin(19:24) – The Connection Between Skin Health and Gut Health(22:57) – Exploring the Role of Epigenetics in Gut and Skin Health(25:25) – H.
