Understanding Skin Issues & Autoimmune Diseases


Skin issues such as acne and psoriasis, along with autoimmune diseases, can profoundly impact your quality of life. These conditions are not just surface problems; they often signal deeper imbalances within the body. Acne, for example, can stem from hormonal fluctuations, an imbalanced diet, or heightened stress levels. Psoriasis, on the other hand, is an autoimmune condition where an overactive immune system erroneously targets healthy skin cells, causing flare-ups and discomfort. Likewise, autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and Hashimoto's thyroiditis involve the immune system mistakenly attacking the body's own tissues, resulting in chronic inflammation and a variety of debilitating symptoms.

Here are some examples of conditions I work with:

The Role of Nutritional Therapy

Nutritional therapy offers a holistic approach to managing these conditions by addressing the root causes rather than just alleviating symptoms. Through personalised dietary plans, lifestyle modifications, and targeted supplementation, nutritional therapy aims to restore balance within the body, reduce inflammation, and promote healin
