#263 | MM - Heal Dry Skin Naturally

Alter Your Health

Dry skin is OH SO common with so many left dependent on moisturizers to manage symptoms.
Topical moisturizers do manage symptoms, at best, but often also exacerbate underlying imbalances!

In this episode, we get to the root of dry skin to empower you to create moist and healthy skin naturally from the inside out - but also the outside in!

Some highlights from today's MM episode...

• Dry skin is not normal, healthy, or a natural part of eating plant-based
• Some dry skin can be a response to changes in the environment (season change, travel, etc)
• Dry skin can be a result of systemic inflammation from gut imbalances
• Dehydration often shows up first at the skin!
• The skin has its own microbiome that is often disrupted through topical products
• Hot water (baths/showers) leaves pores open and causes moisture to be lost - end showers with cold!
• The best natural moisturizer is jojoba oil that most closely resembles natural sebum from the skin

Some products referred to in the episode that we recommend

• Wise Women Herbals All Purpose Salve
• Concentrace Trace Minerals
