    38. Is Your Gut Impacting Your Glow?

    Intro In the ever-evolving world of skincare, one thing has become increasingly clear: achieving radiant, healthy skin transcends serums and creams. The foods we eat, the supplements we take, and even our laundry habits can play a significant role in determining our skin health. And while hormone imbalances and cutting out acne-triggering foods like dairy have gained a lot of attention in recent years, there’s another critical factor to consider – the gut-skin axis. So, in today’s episode, we’ll be diving into how your gut may be impacting your glow.
