EAT FOR YOUR SKIN As a nutritionist, I’ve always believed in the powerful connection between our skin’s health and our gut health. Your digestion plays an important role in the appearance of your skin. You see, you’re not what you eat; you’re what you digest and absorb. The gut is the cornerstone of good health. In fact, it’s where 70 to 80 per cent of the immune system lies.
When your gut is functioning optimally, you will notice better energy, skin, mood and immune function. It is really important to take care of your gut health. On the flipside, if your digestive system is sluggish, you may experience constipation, diarrhea, bloating, hormonal imbalance, skin issues and more. Yes, it’s true that what’s happening on the inside will be reflected on the outside.
