The SECRETS to Glowing Skin - Tackling Breakouts, Wrinkles & Skin Barrier Damage with Dr. Sandy Skotnicki

In today’s episode of Bite Back with Abbey Sharp, we chat with Dr. Sandy Skotnicki, a Toronto-based dermatologist, professor at the University of Toronto, podcast host of Skin to It and author of the book Beyond the Soap. As an expert on all things skin, I am so excited to be chatting with her on what women actually need in their skincare routine, skincare facts vs fiction, the role of gut health, stress and sleep play in our skin health, how the skin barrier is damaged (and repaired), tween beauty and “natural” skincare products that may be doing more harm than good. At the end of the episode, I will go through the unique role that diet plays in conditions like acne, eczema and psoriasis, and the best foods for support.
