If your skin is dry or breaking out, your hormones feel chaotic, and your digestion is unpredictable - and you’re still avoiding fat - we need to talk.
In this episode, we unpack why dietary fat became so confusing in wellness culture, what actually matters when it comes to fat quality, and why under-eating fat can quietly sabotage your gut, skin and hormonal health.
This is not a keto pitch. Not a “cut carbs” conversation. And definitely not about drinking oil.
It’s about physiology, balance, and fuelling your body properly - without fear.
In this episode we’ll unpack:
Why fat became demonised (hello 90s low-fat culture, clean eating confusion, and social media extremes)
The flawed research that shaped our fear of fat — including sugar industry influence and outdated heart health studies
The four main types of fats, explained simply and without overwhelm
Why fats are essential for:
Skin barrier strength, hydration and acne recovery
Hormone production, cycle regularity and mood
Gut lining integrity, bile flow and nutrient absorption
Signs you might be unintentionally under-eating fat
How to add fats back in without going extreme or restrictive
I created With Blu because I know firsthand how frustrating gut and skin issues can be- and I also know that quick fixes don’t work. As a Bachelor-qualified Naturopath, I’ve helped hundreds of women heal their gut, clear their skin, and finally feel their best by addressing the root causes, not just the symptoms.
This podcast is your space for education, empowerment, and evidence-based wellness - without the extremes.
