Digestive Health

The foundation of a healthy body and healthy skin is a healthy intestinal tract. The largest part of the immune system in our body is in the mucosal lining of the gut. If the ecosystem of the intestine is out of balance, the immune system is compromised, the body suffers, and the skin reflects the imbalance. A plethora of disease processes is a direct result of poor gut health. Food allergens and sensitivities to gluten (wheat) can, to some, cause surprisingly poor health conditions that cannot be linked to anything specific especially when running conventional labs and imaging. Poor skin turgor, lack of luster and coloring, acnetic breakouts, and conditions such as rosacea can be indicative of poor digestive health.
