My skin has become far less reactive the last few years due to some changes I’ve made to my skincare routine and my diet. Taking vitamins and minerals to supplement my diet where I’ve been deficient has helped lower inflammation and hormonal response noticeably. For a long time now, I’ve been seeking more holistic treatments rather than just treating symptoms or damage control. When my skin is reacting, it’s symptomatic of imbalance in my health. This video highlights the 5 supplements I believe have helped not just my physical well-being but have had a big impact on the inflammation in my skin. I will also explain why I avoid popular supplements like Evening Primrose Oil. Again, we are all built differently and this is what has helped me. All these supplements were recommended to me by a Dr. I suggest you get the approval of a medical professional before taking any supplement. Enjoy, my skinthusiast family!
Oh and I do take these vitamins daily but at different times as some require an empty stomach while others are better taken with food. Zinc is the only supplement I take periodically. When my immunity feels shot and needs a boost, which pretty much causes everything to go to hell, I will start taking Zinc supplements for that period.

Hi Rene, so very amazing to hear and see you make the connection between what we eat, our hormones, inflammation and our skin. As a health coach, I never stop talking about this connection and can appreciate that since in the conventional medicine world there is a disconnect, we are so wrongly informed about this….keep up the good work
