"It's not really true that if you just fix your gut, you're fixing everything."

If you have eczema, psoriasis, rosacea, or hives and nothing seems to work... if you've tried every elimination diet and "heal your gut" protocol only to see your skin get WORSE... if you've bounced from functional doctor to functional doctor without answers... this episode changes everything.Dr. Terri sits down with Jennifer Fugo, a clinical nutritionist who specializes exclusively in chronic skin conditions (and host of the Healthy Skin Show podcast with nearly 400 episodes), for one of the most eye-opening and controversial conversations about skin health you'll ever hear. This isn't your typical "just heal your gut" advice - it's the truth about why that approach FAILS for most people with skin issues and what actually works.

WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER:

→ Why "heal your gut" advice is incomplete and does a MASSIVE disservice to skin patients

→ The shocking truth: elimination diets can cause IgE anaphylactic food allergies in adults

→ Why you're bouncing from practitioner to practitioner and getting worse, not better

→ The Phase 2 liver detox pathway that 99% of practitioners overlook→ How milk thistle and dandelion root could be making your skin WORSE (ragweed allergens)

→ The cross-reactive allergen problem that practitioners don't check for

→ Why food is just a Band-Aid (not the root cause) for most skin conditions

This isn't about ONE thing fixing everything. It's about finding YOUR root cause combo.
