268: Plant-based Vs Carnivore Diet: What’s Best For Chronic Skin Issues?


Listen Later

Have you read online that going plant-based or carnivore will totally heal your skin?

I’m sure you’ve probably come across this type of information on social media or in chat forums where people swear that what worked for their skin is the magic answer for everyone.

To be honest, I have intentionally steered clear of this topic for a long time now because I wasn’t sure how to cover it. I’ve certainly been pitched by staunch proponents of each diet to share their opinion here on the Healthy Skin Show about why their diet approach is best.

But my concern is that these conversations can be incredibly one-sided and, even at times, emotionally manipulative.

Diet is so deeply intertwined with what makes you who you are physically, emotionally and mentally.

So I wanted to find a way to share my clinical thoughts on both of these very popular diet trends without the dogma. AND while also being clear about my personal diet bias (based on my current clinical experience and how I personally eat).

My hope is that the insights shared here will help you make a more informed decision that truly is best for you, rather than an emotional choice that doesn’t center you in the equation.

In this episode:
  • Plant-based vs Carnivore diet – which is better in my opinion?
  • My clinical diet bias (so you can keep this in mind)
  • Pros + cons of a plant-based diet
  • Why plant-based diets may improve your rashes
  • Pros + cons of a carnivore diet
  • Why going carnivore could improve your rashes
  • My thoughts on diet dogma (especially as a nutrition professional)
Quotes:

I believe that each person bears the responsibility of figuring out the best way to support their body from a dietary standpoint.

No one should be bullied or shamed for their dietary preferences or choices.
