Skin Health & Beauty

For optimal skin health we should think about nourishing it from the inside as well as treating the outside. Top areas to consider are a whole food diet full of nutrients, keeping sugar intake low, and drinking lots of water. Supplements can help, especially Vitamin C and Zinc and there is increasing evidence of the link between the gut and the skin so a quality probiotic should be considered.

The skin’s outer layers are home to densely populated micro-organisms known collectively as the microbiome. These organisms have a symbiotic relationship with the skin’s health, boost the balance of healthy microbiota to help improve skin health. This article presents the latest findings from scientific research on the balance of our skin’s microbiome and its relationship with the gut microbiome, and how improvements in microbiome health can help counter acne, breakouts and other skin conditions as well as slow the signs of ageing.

Recent scientific research suggests gut & skin microbiota behaviours are different when skin experiences acne or breakouts. Probiotic skincare solutions can help rebalance the skin's microbiome, boost immunity and help reduce acne and breakouts.
