Today we've not only got a fan favorite back on the show, we are going to talk about a topic that I've only had ONE other guest talk about- perioral dermatitis. I know firsthand from a handful of clients I've worked with that perioral dermatitis is not only frustrating because it's hard to diagnose and find the root cause, but it's embarrassing because it is a lot of times on the face.

Some natural treatment options to consider Quotes "Malassezia is a fungal organism. It's a yeast, which is a single-celled fungal organism. It's on everybody, but sometimes it can cause skin disease. And in the acne section, we talked about acne can be both bacterial acne, that kind of classic cutibacterium acne, but it can also be fungal acne, which is like a Malassezia folliculitis." [07:42] "I have recommendations for toothpaste, mouthwash, tongue scraper, and dental flosses, because whatever's in the mouth, that oral microbiome, it is going to come out and affect around the mouth."

So let this be a reminder that PCOS is not just a fertility disorder because it can + does impact the entire body in ways you might not even realize. This is the first-ever episode to focus on PCOS and my guest today knows exactly how challenging it can be for women to just get a diagnosis. We're going to dive into PCOS testing, PCOS root causes, the PCOS-gut connection and of course, the PCOS-skin rash connection that is often overlooked (with the exception of acne).

She's a Functional Dietitian and Women's health specialist, the owner of the private practice Jillian Greaves Functional Nutrition & Wellness, and the creator of the PCOS Root Reversal Program.

Nutrition labels should make your diet + nutrition choices easier, but sometimes they do they exact opposite. And that’s the case when it comes to the Daily Value %. Over the last few months, I’ve repeatedly seen the Daily Value % used or discussed in ways that just don’t make sense. As well as people who are afraid to take a particular supplement we might recommend to them because the Daily Value looks like an astronomical number. And that’s troubling for me as a nutrition professional who firmly believes that the Daily Value % (%DV) is misleading and, frankly, total garbage. Since these values are so confusing to people in general as well as my community, I figured it was time to set the record straight. My hope is that you’ll see how pointless this required section is on a US nutrition label + why you should never, ever bother using it as a guide for diet + nutrition choices. In this episode: Why the Daily Value on a US nutrition label should be ignored History of the Daily Value + the RDA (important context!) Concerns from industry experts about lobbyist influence over nutrition information Real life example showing why the Daily Value is worthless Huge problems with the Daily Value Quotes: What you need to know is that the RDA is supposed to be used as a metric or goal of nutrient intake specifically for healthy individuals – not those who are sick or chronically ill. The Daily Value is misleading because an amount higher than 100% could scare someone that they were potentially overconsuming that nutrient.Ready to figure out your skin’s root causes so you can finally fix your skin + break free from meds to manage your skin?My virtual clinic works with adults worldwide struggling with eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, urticaria, hives, dandruff, perioral dermatitis + more.Trusted by over 1000 clients, we get results WITHOUT restrictive elimination diets.Schedule an assessment call at https://skinrepaircall.com/

Get ready for the "squirmies" if talking about worms and parasites (living INSIDE your body) makes you a bit squeamish! Parasites tend to get a bad rep, but in reality, they are a part of life. Most everyone HAS parasites already but doesn't need to do a parasite cleanse. Today's guest is the Queen of Parasites, and she gives insight on when you should consider doing a parasite and worm cleanse for your skin condition. My guest today is Robin Foroutan, a leading expert in Integrative and Functional Nutrition and holistic health. She firmly believes that the body is able to heal itself given the right conditions, which is why she offers her clients a more natural approach to health and healing. By seeking out root causes and underlying imbalances that cause symptoms, and using an advanced, natural and biological approach to address those root causes, she helps her clients create the conditions that encourages the body to heal itself. She sees clients through her virtual practice, Nutrition by Robin, and is a nutrition consultant, lecturer, and writer. Have you ever done a home parasite cleanse or gone with a practitioner? Tell me what worked (or frankly if you're just grossed out!) in the comments below! In this episode: What are parasites and what are the different types? How are parasites ignored as a root cause of symptoms? Can you test for parasites? The LONG list of symptoms connected to parasites What can go horribly wrong if you do a true parasite purge without an expert Quotes "If somebody has a fungal infection that they just can't kick, if that candida just will not quit, you have to think something else bigger is shielding the candida." [09:41] "There are periods of time that coincide with the moon cycles where parasites and worms are more active. So that's full moon, new moon. So if you are having cyclical symptoms where once or twice a month, you have a really itchy butt, your stomach is bothering you, you get a skin outbreak, or just feel exhausted or cranky or whatever... cyclical symptoms are typically infectious in nature."
