✨ “We were afraid of steroids… and still had no answers.”

That’s what Lindsey told me when she came to me for help with her daughter’s nonstop itchy rashes.

They were losing sleep.
The diet was shrinking.
Creams weren’t cutting it.
And no one could tell them what was actually going on.

💥 Until we worked together.
I took them through my Rashes BeGone™ framework—a root-cause strategy that doesn’t rely on creams, elimination diets, or guesswork.

The result?
✅ Itching gone
✅ Diet expanded
✅ Everyone could finally sleep
✅ Their child felt comfortable in her skin again

“Thank you Jennifer for this miracle—for giving us answers when no one else could.”

That’s what this mom told me after just one personalized plan.

🛑 If you’ve been told to just “wait it out,” cut more foods, or try another product…

Stop.

Avoiding antibiotics to “protect” your child’s gut?
You may be putting their life at risk.

I need to say this—loudly—because the natural health world isn’t telling you the truth:

⚠️ A skin infection left untreated can turn into something life-threatening.
⚠️ Skin will not heal if it’s infected.
⚠️ No herbal balm, probiotic, or gut protocol can override an active bacterial infection.

I’ve had parents proudly tell me they avoided antibiotics…
while their child’s skin was red, hot, weeping, and painful to the touch.

One child recently suffered for weeks—because his parent was scared to give him medication.
If he had been old enough, he would’ve begged for relief.
There’s nothing to be proud of in withholding what he needed.

💥 Infected skin is not something to “wait and see” on.
💥 You don’t get points for avoiding antibiotics.
💥 You don’t get a gold star for ignoring medical advice.

What you get is:
➡️ Delayed healing
➡️ More suffering
➡️ The risk of that infection spreading systemically

You want to protect your child. I know that.
But protecting them means knowing when to act.

📌 Signs of possible skin infection:
— Skin that’s hot, red, or oozing
— Flares that don’t subside at all
— Swelling, tenderness, or pain
— Your gut says “something’s not right”

🩺 Antibiotics, when necessary, are not the enemy.
They save lives. They stop suffering.
And YES—you can repair gut health afterward. That’s what I’m here to help with.

✨ Bottom line: If your child needs medical attention for their skin, go. now.
Get them relief. We’ll support their body from the inside—after they’re safe.

🚫 “But it’s natural!”
That’s what I hear when parents tell me they’ve been using colloidal silver on their child’s skin.

Let’s clear this up 👇

It's ""natural...""
But that doesn’t make it safe—especially not for use on irritated skin.

💥 The truth?
Colloidal silver can build up in the body over time and cause permanent toxicity.
It can even turn the skin blue-gray (a condition called argyria).
And it’s not reversible.

Kids with chronic rashes already have underfunctioning detox systems. Adding toxic metals into the mix isn’t helping.

Here’s what is safe:
✨ Products that support barrier repair
✨ Protocols that address root causes
✨ A clear plan based on clinical expertise—not influencer advice

🚨 Are hidden food sensitivities driving your kid’s itching?

Nope. Not even close.

Those IgG food sensitivity tests?
They’re not showing you what’s wrong.
They’re showing you what’s familiar.
👀 That’s tolerance—not intolerance.

So if you’ve pulled every food off their plate…
And they’re still itchy, flaring, and miserable…
That’s because food was never the problem.

The real issue?
It's coming from problems inside their body.
Not strawberries. Not gluten. Not eggs.

Have you fallen down the food sensitivity rabbit hole? Did it stop the itching? Let me know in the comments.

🛁 Eczema bath quiz!
Which one is actually safe for itchy skin?

A. Oatmeal
B. Baking soda
C. Bleach
D. Apple cider vinegar
E. Dove Sensitive Bar soap + water

💥 Answer: E. Always E.

Every child’s skin is different. But across the board, I see E help my clients most.

Baths aren’t bad… but they’re not all good either.
What matters most? Root cause.
Because no bath will fix what’s driving the flare from the inside.

🚨 The biggest scam in functional medicine?

Food sensitivity testing 👎
And the elimination diets that come after.

Here’s the truth:

Those IgG food panels?
They don’t show intolerance.
They show exposure and tolerance.
(Yes—tolerance.)

So when your child eats something regularly, it flags high.
Not because it’s harming them…
Because their immune system recognizes it.

Then you’re told to cut it.
You spiral into restriction.
And your child still flares.

Mic. Drop.

👉 If you’ve spent $$$ on food testing and still don’t have answers—it’s not you.
You were given the wrong map.

📍Let’s fix what’s actually driving the reactions.

Comment ENOUGH and I’ll send you the link to stop the itching and start the healing (without chasing food triggers and restricting your child's diet).

No more guessing. Just real relief, a bigger diet, and a thriving child.

❌ “Kids with eczema should…”
✅ Bathe less?
✅ Avoid sugar?
✅ Quit gluten?
✅ Take zinc and probiotics?
✅ Just grow out of it?

Think again. 👀
Every one of these common tips? Myths.

Most well-meaning advice online focuses on surface-level fixes…
💥 But that’s not how you actually stop the itching.

Let’s be real:

🧼 Skin gets better when the internal terrain improves
🥣 Cutting foods ≠ healing (especially when they’re not the real trigger)
🧬 Random supplements ≠ strategy
🧒🏽 Kids don’t just “outgrow” chronic inflammation—they carry it

Let’s stop repeating advice that doesn’t work—and finally heal that skin from the inside out.

08/24/2025

🚨 Your child’s flare isn’t contact dermatitis. It’s progress. But your allergist won’t tell you that.

A client’s allergist recently said the MegaSporeBiotic probiotic used topically (which I often recommend because it helps many kids) “caused a contact dermatitis” reaction.

Here’s the truth:
❌ That’s highly unlikely. True some probiotics contain allergens or irritants. MegaSpore contains neither.

💥 What’s more likely?
Her daughter’s compromised skin barrier met a microbiome shift.
When you rebalance the skin’s bacteria (especially in eczema), overgrown bugs like Staph aureus or Malassezia can die off—and release irritating byproducts as they go.
That can look like redness or a flare, but it’s not the same as a contact derm reaction.

It’s a sign of change, not damage, not a contact derm reaction.
It’s the skin doing its job.

Same goes for this (same allergist was fast to point this out):
⚠️ “Supplements aren’t FDA-approved.”
True. But neither are vitamins when you eat an orange.
We’re using compounds the body already makes or uses to support biochemical processes in the body that support growth, development, and healing.

What's FDA approved? Steroids, antihistamines... Let's be real, your kid doesn't have eczema because they have a deficiency of either.

And this:
⚠️ “Allergies are causing the eczema.”
Maybe. But what if high IgE levels are actually telling us there’s a hidden infection or immune dysregulation happening inside? Because they most often are.

👉 This is why we test deeper.
👉 This is why we stop guessing.
👉 This is why your child still isn’t healing with the usual advice.
