212. Dr. Barbara Sturm: How to Heal the Skin from the Inside Out

Your skin isn’t aging because of time, it’s inflamed, dehydrated, and systemically damaged by the very products marketed to save it. Join me and renowned skincare innovator Dr. Barbara Sturm as we dismantle the conventional dermatology playbook and rebuild skin health from a foundation of anti-inflammatory science. We touch base on the gut-skin connection, how seed oils trigger inflammatory cytokines linked to skin cancer, and why your skincare ingredients matter as much as the food you eat.
