Clear skin, anti-aging, and lasting beauty don’t just come from skincare products — your gut health, diet, and nutrition play the most important role in how your skin looks and feels. In this episode of the Dr. Gundry Podcast, Dr. Steven Gundry reveals how what you eat affects acne, dryness, wrinkles, and premature aging — and why real skincare starts from the inside out.
Most people waste money on creams, serums, and expensive skincare routines while ignoring the hidden cause of skin problems: gut imbalance and inflammatory foods. Dr. Gundry explains the shocking link between diet, gut microbiome health, and skin conditions — and shares the exact foods that could be sabotaging your complexion, as well as the skin-friendly foods you should eat daily.
Whether you struggle with acne, eczema, dullness, or just want a youthful glow, this episode gives you the science-backed secrets to nourishing your skin through nutrition.
