Dry Skin

Author: Nutritional Weight & Wellness, Inc. January 20, 2025 Duration: 29:52

We are deep into the cold winter here in Minnesota where dry skin starts to become a problem. Check your hands and heels before jumping into this episode! There are helpful things we can do externally to help support our skin through these drier months or if you live in a drier climate, but often the INTERNAL environment within us gets overlooked. Join registered dietitians Teresa and Leah as they discuss ways to hydrate (and how electrolytes can help!), why healthy fat is important to the lipid matrix in the outer layer of your skin, how to incorporate healthy fat through food and supplements into your routine, how omega-3s and omega-6s impact your skin, and other nutrients to consider that help with skin hydration and vibrancy.

Each episode features licensed nutritionists and dietitians from Nutritional Weight & Wellness, Inc., drawing on more than twenty-five years of hands-on experience.

You'll hear practical strategies for making tangible changes, grounded in the understanding that what you eat fundamentally shapes how you feel.
