266: Eczema-Gut Connection (PART 1)

If you haven’t considered the potential gut connection to eczema, then this will be quite surprising to you!

Many of my atopic dermatitis clients struggle with chronic gut issues.

And some have extremely imbalanced gut microbiomes, but don’t even have any gut symptoms!

Testing and certain patterns that I see in my clinical practice have underscored the importance of considering the impacts that the gut has on the skin, so we’re going to start diving into that today!

In this episode:

• Factors that impact the eczema-gut connection
• When gut microbiome imbalances can start (HINT: it’s earlier than you think!)
• Specific types of bacterial overgrowth I see in eczema clients
• Imbalances that current research is highlighting in the “eczema gut”
• What tends to be skewed in the gut microbiome of young babies + kids

Quotes:

Inflammation that impacts the skin often doesn’t originate in the skin… but actually somewhere else in your body.

The gut of someone with eczema may look different compared to someone who does not have eczema.
