My Vitamins Article on Immunity, Skin and Gut Health
Check out my article on immunity and the impact on skin & gut health or vice versa 🤗.
The key points are to be cautious of chemicals and think about your diet.
We absorb 60% of what we put on the skin, so it’s crucial to think twice about the creams we lather on every night. Avoiding harsh chemicals can support liver health by protecting the internal inflammatory and detoxification responses in the body. The liver is one of the body’s major detoxifiers. Therefore, an overload of toxins from our skin can lead to imbalances in the immune system, such as Psoriasis.
Our diet and lifestyle habits can affect our skin immunity. Introducing healthier foods to feed the gut microbiome can support the immune system. Eating a rainbow of vegetables each day and introducing fermented foods such as Sauerkraut, miso and bone broths will help to feed the microbiome.

Please note I do stand by the nutrient recommendations in this article, however any reference to particular supplements are based on the nutrient content only, not on this exact brand of supplement.
As a nutrition practitioner I would always work with food first and only use supplements to support any imbalances when required.
Any recommendations for supplements I make, would always be based on the individuals needs at that time, to address any potential imbalances, as we are all biochemically different, with varying nutritional requirements, intolerances or allergies.
So when I see clients in a clinical setting I wouldn't stick to one brand alone, I would research for a brand based on effective ingredients for their individual needs. And I would always recommend you seek advice from a Nutrition professional before buying any supplements.
