Beauty begins in the bowel! 💩 ✨

If you’re experiencing acne breakouts, the crap in your pores might be directly related to what’s in your bowl. Breakouts can occur when our gut is overloaded with toxins + not enough water to help flush them out. Those who struggle with chronic constipation tend to experience a surplus of acne as well. This occurs when toxins and waste are re-absorbed back into the bloodstream via the colon, rather than being eliminated. From the bloodstream, these toxins can exit the body by its largest detoxification organ - the skin. The other mechanism by which constipation can impact skin is through the alteration of gut bacteria. Drinking plenty of water daily, plus having a well balanced microbiome - including pro & pre biotics + other healthy flora - has been proven to reduce symptoms. You can consult with a certified naturopath / wellness practitioner of your choice to help you achieve a healthy gut - it takes time and consistency but your skin will certainly benefit.
