Does the digestive system play a role in the appearance and overall vitality of your skin? YES. It’s true. In fact, there is a huge connection between the health of our gut and the health of our skin. Let’s break down that connection.
Breaking Down The Connection
- When your gut is functioning properly, it can eliminate toxins easily. In contrast, if it is not removing such toxins from your body, then they can show up in your skin — in the form of acne, pimples, etc.
- When your gut is functioning properly, it can effectively absorb nutrients. As a result, the vital nutrients the skin needs to stay healthy are absorbed. If the gut isn’t breaking down and absorbing such necessary nutrients, then the skin will not get the nutrients it needs.
- When your gut is functioning properly, you can reduce inflammation. In contrast, if there is an imbalance in the digestive system, it can lead to increased inflammation. This will show itself on your skin in the form of breakouts, redness, rosacea, acne, etc.
So, Where Does That Leave Us?
