In this week’s episode of Loving Wellness, I'm talking to Dr. Julie Greenberg. Dr. Greenberg is a licensed Naturopathic Doctor (ND) and Registered Herbalist RH (AHG) who specializes in integrative dermatology. She is the founder of the Center for Integrative Dermatology, a holistic clinic that approaches skin problems by finding and treating the root cause. Dr. Greenberg holds degrees from Northwestern University, Stanford University and Bastyr University. She lectures at naturopathic medical schools and speaks at conferences across the U.S. on the topics of hair, skin and nails. She is passionate about natural skin care and believes that many of today’s chronic skin diseases can be healed by using evidence-based alternative treatments.

In the episode, we cover: 

• The pathophysiology of acne
• Root causes of acne 
• The 2 functional lab tests that Dr. Greenberg runs on every acne patient
• The gut-skin connection
• What is pathogenic overgrowth in the gut? 
• Common pathogens that may be causing your acne
• The different gut imbalances in those with acne vs. those with eczema 
• H. pylori- why it’s a concern, common symptoms, & downstream effects of leaving it untreated  
• Foods to include & foods to avoid for better skin
• How to add more fiber into your diet without causing digestive distress 
• How long should it take to heal your acne?
• Supplements to consider for skin health (and which supplements to avoid)
• Is any amount of acne “normal”?
