The Eczema Podcast

What if eczema is connected to more than just the skin?

In this episode, Abby welcomes Ivan Galanin, founder of Adipeau, to talk about an area of skin health that isn't often discussed: fat cells and inflammation. They explore how the health and size of fat cells may influence inflammation, skin structure, the skin barrier, and the way the skin responds to eczema.

Ivan also shares what led him to study fat cells after experiencing severe skin damage himself, along with some of the research and observations behind his work. The conversation touches on hormones, pregnancy, stress, nutrition, exercise, red light therapy, skin regeneration, and why supporting the body's natural ability to repair itself may matter.
