The conventional two-dimensional approach to treating skin issues like acne is typically topical creams, along with pharmaceuticals like antibiotics or birth control pills.

The problem with this approach is that these things only suppress the symptoms while failing to address the underlying root causes of WHY these problems are happening. And even more problematic are the more significant health issues that these treatments can lead to.

In this episode, I’m discussing the what the common root causes of skin issues are, and a four-dimensional functional approach to take instead!

At some point in your life, whether during puberty, adolescence, or even well into adulthood, that acne, or other skin issues became a big concern for you. It’s frustrating, depressing, confusing, and leaves you feeling soooo self-conscious.

You may have even taken medications to treat it, but they never entirely worked, and you still had to supplement with other over-the-counter products. Have you ever wondered why this is?

In this episode, we’ll take a look at why the conventional approach to treating skin problems isn’t effective, common myths about them, and I share my story on how I struggled with acne for over thirty years and what finally resolved it!

My behind-the-scenes mini-series continues with a very frank and honest conversation on the emotional side and mindset of weight gain.

You’ll hear me share all about how I developed an unhealthy obsession with calories and the sense of control counting them gave me. I also talk about the temptation and effort it takes not to fall into old habits and limiting beliefs.

And I share with you the one question that helps me reframe my mindset and perspective on weight gain.

In this new episode of The Live FAB Life Podcast, I share how I came to the decision to remove my mercury dental fillings, how I prepared my body for it by focusing on supporting my immune system, adrenals, and liver, and how I’ve responded to the procedure.

Have you ever had that uncomfortable feeling of fullness after eating even the tiniest amount of food? Or had your belly swell so much you look like you’re five months pregnant?

In this episode, I’m joined by two of my clients for a roundtable interview on their experience with the 21-Day Sugar Detox. You’ll hear them share their fears in doing the program, how they approached it, what their experience was like and how the program has changed them - physically, as well as their mindset towards food. What I loved most about coaching Vicky and Judy is that they’re friends, who decided to do the program TOGETHER - and you’ll definitely hear them talk about how they’ve been able to support each other, not just during the program, but after it ended too!

When it comes to food allergies, making a diagnosis is pretty straightforward. That’s because a typical allergic reaction happens right after you eat or ingest a certain food. Symptoms like a rash, hives or even swelling show up almost immediately after you eat the offending food. But food sensitivities are sneakier to pinpoint...

It’s not “You are what you eat”, rather it’s, “What your body can do with what you eat.”
