As we move into the colder months, the team at Combe Grove have been talking more about skin and best practices to maintain skin health. After listening to a recent radio programme by the Van Tullekens where they discussed skin conditions such as eczema and its triggers, it got us thinking about how metabolic health plays a vital role.
Studies have shown the high blood sugar can drive inflammation in the body which can increase redness, conditions like acne and aging of the skin. This can be caused by ultra processed or high sugar foods for example.
Adopting healthy nutritional choices, reducing stress through mindful activity and finding joy in daily movement to boost blood circulation can vastly improve skin health, including fewer breakouts, a stronger skin barrier and improved collagen production.
