With rising dairy intolerance and the popularity of plant-based alternatives, it’s easy to wonder if milk still belongs in our diets.Traditional dairy like yogurt, kefir, and cheese have nourished cultures for thousands of years, yet modern processing may play a role in today’s issues.Joining me is Dr. Bill Schindler, archaeologist, primitive technologist, and chef, who studies ancestral diets and runs the Modern Stone Age Kitchen. Together, we unpack whether dairy is truly “bad” for you, why dairy intolerance is on the rise, and what you can do to better tolerate dairy. ⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references 👉 http://www.skinterrupt.com/393 - Join me in the conversation at http://instagram.com/jenniferfugo - Stop My Rashes FREE eGuide - https://bit.ly/stopmyrashespod - Fix your skin using Jennifer’s method (trusted by 900+ skin rash warriors)!

Best known for weight loss and blood sugar control, GLP-1 drugs might also reduce the stubborn inflammation behind hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). Early research shows they may impact key inflammatory pathways—and even improve HS symptoms (including painful skin boils) without major weight loss.But big questions remain: How do they interact with current HS treatments? Who can prescribe them? What happens if you stop?Dermatologist and HS expert Dr. Steven Daveluy returns to unpack the science, share insights, and explore what this could mean for the future of HS care.

It’s official—I’m no longer gluten-free.After 16 years of strict adherence (and evangelizing about the benefits of a gluten free diet), I’ve reintroduced gluten into my life. It’s been a surprising and liberating part of my healing journey.In this episode, I share my personal story of overcoming fear around gluten and offer guidance for those considering reintroductions—especially if you’re gluten-sensitive.FYI – this isn’t advice for anyone with Celiac or a wheat allergy. But if you’ve got gluten sensitivity and find yourself questioning long-held food restrictions, this episode is for you.Because healing isn’t always about cutting more out—it’s about reclaiming what truly nourishes you.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- See all the references 👉 http://www.skinterrupt.com/391 - Join in the conversation with Jennifer at http://instagram.com/jenniferfugo - Stop My Rashes FREE eGuide - https://bit.ly/stopmyrashespod - Fix your skin using Jennifer’s method (trusted by 900+ skin rash warriors)!

Histamine intolerance is typically mild, but Mastocytosis is the most severe form of mast cell disorder—often taking nearly a decade to diagnose. Symptoms can affect multiple organs, from rashes and GI issues to life-threatening anaphylaxis, and standard treatments like low-histamine diets and antihistamines often fail.Many doctors aren’t familiar with testing or treatment options for mast cell issues like Mastocytosis and MCAS.Today, I’m joined by Dr. Mariana Castells, a leading expert in allergy and immunology at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. She directs the renowned Mastocytosis Center and the Drug Hypersensitivity and Desensitization Center.Even if you have histamine intolerance or MCAS, this episode offers key insights on histamine, testing, and finding real relief—because no one should suffer needlessly.⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Connect with Dr. Castells at https://bit.ly/3ItFhU2 - Histamine Overload Masterclass 👉http://bit.ly/histamineresetMC-pod - HistaGut Relief IgG 👉http://bit.ly/histagut-pod - See all the references 👉 http://www.skinterrupt.com/392 - Join in the conversation with Jennifer at http://instagram.com/jenniferfugo - Stop My Rashes FREE eGuide - https://bit.ly/stopmyrashespod - Fix your skin using Jennifer’s method (trusted by 900+ skin rash warriors)!

What’s the best treatment for Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW)? While answers are still emerging, we’re getting closer.TSW is a misunderstood, drug-induced condition that goes far beyond typical eczema. Many sufferers feel dismissed by doctors since there’s no formal diagnostic criteria and many dermatologists deny its existence. Yet symptoms like relentless itching, flaking, insomnia, “zingers,” and even depression can be life-altering.In this episode, I speak with Dr. Olivia Hsu Friedman—a compassionate, research-driven Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioner who reveals how TSW differs from eczema, and explains how Traditional Chinese Medicine addresses the “toxic heat” behind symptoms. If you’ve been told “it’s just eczema” or feel like nothing is working, this episode offers fresh hope and validation!⭐️Mentioned in This Episode:- Connect with Dr. Friedman 👉 https://amethystacu.com/ - See all the references 👉 http://www.skinterrupt.com/389 - Join me in the conversation at http://instagram.com/jenniferfugo - Stop My Rashes FREE eGuide - https://bit.ly/stopmyrashespod - Fix your skin using Jennifer’s method (trusted by 900+ skin rash warriors including TSW)!
