Manage episode 427275135 series 2608110
In today’s episode re-release from 2020, Dr. Lisa talks to Dr. Jen Newell, naturopathic doctor and founder of Connected Health and Skin. Dr. Jen sought out a naturopathic approach to skin health when she became dissatisfied with oral contraceptives, antibiotics and other conventional treatments for her own hormonal cystic acne and mild rosacea. Dr. Jen helps women overcome acne and other skin disorders to achieve a clear, radiant complexion, restored hormonal balance and renewed digestive function.
In this episode, we cover:
- How your skin changes due to hormone and structural changes with perimenopause including:
- Acne on chest, back, jawline or hairline
- Age spots
- Dryness
- Wrinkles and aging
- Thinning skin
- How different hair products you use could cause inflammation and impact your skin health
- Why daily mineral sunscreen use is a key component for maintaining skin health
- Why it’s important to protect you skin from UVA rays that travel through windows
- Why eating colourful fruit and vegetables is important for your skin
- Why drinking too much coffee and alcohol is not great for your skin
- Why you may want to drink more herbal tea like nettle, hibiscus, spearmint, licorice root
- The biggest factors that impact how your skin will age, outside of genetics (hint: they start with the letter S – sugar, sun, smoking, stress)
- How prescription medications like anti-depressants and insulin can impact your skin health
- The antioxidant supplements, like lycopene, CoQ10, astaxanthin, quercetin, that you may want to talk to your naturopathic doctor about adding into your regime
- Why supplementing with biotin could be worsening your acne
- Different ingredients you might want to look for in your skin care products, like retinoids, vitamin C, green tea extract, niacinamide
- What skin care products are the most important to use
- Why oil cleansing can help your skin health when you use it with another gentle cleanser
- If it’s worth it to use a collagen supplement
