112. Eczema Triggers: How Sleep, Food, Hydration, and Stress Affect Your Skin with Christa Biegler


Listen Later

At least one in ten children struggle with eczema and parents are often left wondering what the cause is and how to help. Eczema is multi dimensional and trying to determine the root cause of it in the individual can be more beneficial than just using a cream to reduce symptoms. Christa Biegler is joining us today to break down the relationship between the gut and skin conditions. Plus she shares the impact that food, sleep, hydration, and alcohol has on eczema, and the relationship between hormones and skin conditions.

Christa Biegler is an author, podcast host and private practice owner helping health-savvy women overcome food sensitivities and fatigue without restrictive dieting to beat bloat, burnout & eczema breakouts. She has a passion for subclinical thyroid issues, the nervous system & stealth biotoxins. She lives with her unicycling husband & kids in the Midwest.

Join me and Christa as we talk all about eczema. Christa is explaining what the presentation of eczema says about its root cause, the relationship of eczema with things like what we eat, how we sleep, how much water we intake, and if we consume alcohol. We are also discussing the relationship between the gut and skin issues. 

In this episode we discuss:

  • The statistics of how many people struggle with eczema
  • Looking at presentations and root causes of eczema 
  • Different ways to build the foundation and nutrients needed to resolve skin and other issues
  • The best ways to intake amino acids
  • Christa’s thoughts on plant vs animal proteins
  • The relationship between sleep, food, hydration, and alcohol and eczema
  • Possible causes behind a rash that develops on the face during PMS and what can be done to help
