That breakout, dryness, or redness might not be a surface-level issue—it could be a signal from your gut.

Your skin and gut are constantly communicating through what’s called the gut-skin axis. When the gut microbiome is imbalanced, it can trigger inflammation that shows up on the skin—think acne, eczema, psoriasis, or rosacea.

And while creams and prescriptions can help temporarily, real relief often starts within.

✔️ Skin and gut microbiomes work together
✔️ Gut inflammation is tied to skin flare-ups
✔️ Probiotics, prebiotics, and clean nutrition play a key role in healing

Your skin is talking. Your gut might be the key to understanding what it’s saying.

Wellness isn’t a luxury—it’s a lifestyle shaped by daily choices.

This Global Wellness Day, we’re celebrating the kind of well-being that goes deeper than fads and quick fixes. At Forum Health, we believe true wellness means getting to the root, listening to your body, and making intentional shifts that support the whole you.

• Move daily in ways that reduce stress, not add to it
• Choose nutrient-rich, anti-inflammatory foods
• Hydrate and rest—simple, essential, powerful

Small steps. Big change. Long-term wellness.

Your thyroid affects everything—from metabolism to mood to energy.
And the foods you eat play a powerful role in keeping it balanced.

An anti-inflammatory, nutrient-dense diet can help regulate thyroid hormones, reduce symptoms, and support long-term health—especially for those managing conditions like hypothyroidism or Hashimoto’s.

Here’s where to start:
• Avoid gluten, dairy, sugar, and refined carbs
• Focus on foods that support gut and hormone health
• Consider supplements like selenium, iodine, and ashwagandha

Prevention starts on your plate.
And for many, nutrition is the key to managing symptoms and feeling like themselves again.

In your luteal phase or navigating perimenopause? Your body is asking for rest—not more stress.

In this final part of her cycle syncing series, Alicia Barkholtz, FNP-C, explains why hormone dips in this phase (and in menopause) make low-impact movement like yoga and Pilates more supportive than intense workouts.

She shares her own journey of slowing down, tuning in, and feeling better than ever—with better sleep, more balanced moods, and no weight gain from resting when needed.
