Treating Acne From The Inside Out
Вставка
- Опубліковано 4 чер 2024
- Acne is the #1 skin condition in the United States, affecting not just millions of teenagers but an increasing number of adults as well. We spend over a billion dollars for prescriptions and over-the-counter (OTC) products to cure acne, yet at best these are short-term solutions. Conventional medicine deals with symptoms, so their solutions for acne include lathering on potions and lotions, and taking antibiotics or strong liver-damaging medications. Functional Medicine, on the other hand, addresses the problem’s root cause. From this lens, we can understand that numerous factors contribute to acne, including nutritional status, stress, toxicity, inflammation and hormonal and gut imbalances.
In this mini-episode, Dr. Hyman is joined by Dr. Elizabeth Boham to discuss the Functional Medicine approach to treating acne and other skin issues.
Dr. Elizabeth Boham is a physician and nutritionist who practices Functional Medicine as part of my team at The UltraWellness Center in Lenox, MA. Through her practice and lecturing, she has helped thousands of people achieve their wellness goals. She is part of the faculty of the Institute for Functional Medicine and has been featured on the Dr. Oz show and in a variety of publications and media including Huffington Post, The Chalkboard Magazine, and Experience Life. Her DVD Breast Wellness: Tools to Prevent and Heal from Breast Cancer explores the Functional Medicine approach to keeping your breasts and whole body well, a topic she is passionate about as a breast cancer survivor.

Please Mark stop interrupting your guest speaker, we want to hear what she has to say without interruptions by yourself. I have noticed comments like mine by others on many of your UA-cam presentations. Please listen to your viewers, please. 🤗
THANK YOU. I am a pre-PA student working at a dermatology office and every single day I hear providers telling teenagers: "Nothing that you are eating or doing is causing your acne. It is just hormones". They do not mention any of the important lifestyle changes and push the girls onto doxycycline, birth control or spironolactone immediately.
Had bad acne until I was 30. Decided to go gluten-free and have not had any acne at all since then. It was causing major inflammation in my body. I think each person needs to find the food trigger that is causing the inflammation.
Exactly! I don’t the same but also found I’m lactose intolerant but cut both them out and mad a huge difference also to much sugar isn’t good
Do you break out if you had one gluten treat meal a week?
@@haytch7934 not at this point that I know of. I have been really strict not eating any gluten. Some small amounts which I assume I eat while out or at someone's house hasn't bothered me at all.
That’s nice to be able to occasionally dabble otherwise makes you abit antisocial , plus you need a fix from time to time 😂
@@haytch7934I do. If I have some pasta today, in 2 days the pimples will certainly appear.
Maybe don’t interrupt your guests too much? Besides that it’s an amazing episode, thank you!
Really love the information. I have to say though, the constant interruptions of your guest are quite off-putting. Let her speak.
Wonder if he ever reads these comments (there have been hundreds). Never changes his ways.
The topic is so important and helpful, thank you so much!! It's just a bit hard to follow because Dr. Mark interrupts Dr. Elizabeth so often (sorry Mark! I know you are trying to guide the flow of the podcast to promote your work which is totally valid as well) A summary at the end to explain the process of treating acne might help, like a little review. Like for example: first, eliminate certain foods, detox, and then if that doesn't work try this or that test and supplement with these possible vitamins. In general, I think it really helpful and amazing that you are doing this work, I just think it would be helpful to keep on the topic the speaker is trying to communicate and then do a little review after - to provide a well-organized plan, simple guidance, for those who really suffer from this condition. Thanks and see you in the next one!
Great video with great pertinent information for many to learn from and can be of help in some ways
I hope so much to work at a clinic like Ultra Wellness Center one day. I listen to these podcasts constantly :) Learning so much
Thank you for posting doc. I developed hormonal acne in the beginning of March and I changed my diet and started taking a good probiotic and my skin has been looking amazing. I do have acne scars but hopefully gone in no time.
Hi do you mind sharing which probiotic you used? I'm also experiencing hormonal acne
KimmyCassy absolutely. It’s called garden of life, dr. Formulated probiotics, once daily women’s version. I bought it off amazon. A bit pricey but it’s really works
@@SalvaDORKiann YES!!! use that one too and love it!
Brilliant guys. If you can in future name what you use for us guys in the UK and can’t see a functional doctor because of the virus. I have most of your books and would appreciate more info please xx
Meet Elliot..
Hanging on every word.
Hello Dr Hyman is there any Functional DR in San Francisco area My Name is Lavinia Ma'u live in Hayward CA thank you so much
Nice video. It's worth getting the oils from Weedborn, though.
The logic of having good healthy food is actually well mentioned in ancient Ayurvedic medical science. As per the Ayurvedic belief, what you eat does effect your skin, your body and mind. Proper healthy diet is the key to having a healthy body n mind. Good to see that western world has been adopting the Ayurvedic approach
OMG I feel like you were talking about me-chronic ear infections in kidergarten, a round of antibiotics like every month for a while... When I was 13 I went through a severe stress and then I started developing acne-I had like 3 big zits, that wouldn't heal or go away. I got prescribed antibiotics for a month-after that, for a month it was better, but after... OMG my skin looked worse with every week, nothing would help, I looked horrible, got really bad acne all over my cheecks-it was that bad, that even my zits would break with slight touch. Now I have ton of scars. Kids, never use antibiotics if you have other chance to heal, it is really destroying your gut and immune system. We, the people of Western culture, we don't even have the microbiome the tribes hava in Africa or living by Amazon river-and we actually don't have very important species of bacteria, that would benefit us a lot, but we have species bad for us, that people from these tribes don't
Me too
I work at a children's home in south Africa and if there was a cure for HIV, I thank I would literally cry my eyes out for a week straight!🩸 so many precious little lives. born with this horrible disease. Thank you for your research and please don't sell out to big pharma!🙏 I am begging you❤❤😮😮
What labs do we need to have our doctors order???
Dr. Hyman sure talks a lot. I wish he’d let his guest have more control of the conversation.
I feel the same. Really wanted her to share more: what brand of vitamin A, what kind of zinc, etc. She was interrupted all the time:(((
Hold on ! I always thaught gut dysbiosis was too much of some "otherwise" good bacteria and then they are minimizing other smaller important cultures. If there is BAD bacteria in the gut it's a different approach. I just think it's a little bit misleading to say certain bacteria is good or bad.
“This country” - remember the internet is not just contained within the USA.
Nah american diet is horrible. Places outside America ban certain ingredients in food. Plus obesity is high here
I feel like I need to go see a functional medicine doctor. I’ve done everything...I’ve basically eliminated everything from my diet but meat.
Well in Germany wie dont have such good doctors
So much interruptions
heal my rosacea plsssss
Vit d 10000 iu,zinc 30 mg, b complex 100 and vit c 1500 mg
Make sure u get a good brand ....
A good diet..carnivore / keto or a diet without grains and sugar with green veg juice
Beavis and Butthead say at 17:16 she says foreskin lol.
I wish this dude will stop interjecting at the most inopportune moments. He does it in his other videos too. So distracting. Makes listening stressful and annoying. There is room for improvement here. Hope he heeds.
Name of the stool test ?
Infancy vaccines causes acne in teens, eczema psoriasis and dermatitis, my son very rarely eats sugar no even gluten almost never since he was 4 years old and we have a very natural diet meaning nothing is processed or industrial like seed oils etc but recently we decide to go keto carnivore and my son's skin is much been improved, still some spots at the forehead after been on 2 months in keto carnivore diet but all the other spots in his back, face and eczema in his scalp all gone, even the smell of yeast it's gone. I think even organic vegetables aren't what they were 20 years ago. The use of artificial fertilisers are making our veg not optimal but inflammatory in the guts. Something about the biology toxic cocktail in the vaccines and food chain changed my son's microbiome making it weaker to processes fibre even trying all sorts of home made pre pro biotics like sauerkraut did not help or supplementing with zinc neither no even fasting for 2-3 days. The food today is toxic even the organic vegetables or those vaccines done a lot of harm in our systems.
I also did vit D3 cod liver oil, eating liver etc before the carnivore diet, nothing worked for my son until carnivore.
Conclusion: Sugar is our enemy. 12:06
sugar, starch, gluten, dairy. ye i wonder what the hell i can eat soon.
@@maltezzliterally
sugar and grains omega 6. and all industrialised food in the market.
I took away my skin microbile
Mark is so funny 😂 if you realise in his podcasts he always tests the guests on the spot randomly.
Mark you talk too much. Let the expert talk a bit more
right 🤣
Im confused about the effect of fruits on our body and skinnn!!!!
Doc help us
Please
They just did - fruit juices have way too much sugar and otherwise most fruits have a lot of sugar so moderation is key. Avocado is low in sugar and next are most berries and tomatoes. Search in her for fruit sugars etc. Good luck. Forgot something in case u are concerned about sugars etc. Minimize starchy foods also as well as veggies that are high in sugars and starches such as: carrots, beets, grains, potatoes, rice. This is dependent on just what u are looking for as far as health issues go. Search this site first as Dr. Hyman is a great site
@@ethimself5064 Thank you .

Modern fruits are just tree candies! Skip the fruits and see if your conditions improve.
