Acne Root Causes, Gut Health, Hormones

If you want to stop your breakouts for good, you must be addressing the health of your gut. Here’s how gut health and the skin are connected.

Acne Root Causes, Hormones

Even if you’ve never had breakouts before, post-pill acne can start popping up within a few months. This happens for a number of reasons and can be fixed.

Acne Root Causes

The conventional route of treating acne through topical products is a symptom management approach and does not address the actual root causes of acne.

Recipes, Soups + Salads

This is my go-to recipe for a dairy-free stracciatella soup. I love that it’s not only full of nutrients that work to heal your gut lining but also improve the health of your skin.

I’m Katie

I’m a Registered Holistic Nutritionist specializing in helping women with chronic acne clear their skin from the inside out.

Hey!

After years of dealing cystic breakouts, I cleared up my skin for good by fixing my gut, liver and hormones. I went back to school for nutrition and then said seeya later to my job in television. I launched an online nutrition business (before working from home was a thing) so I could help as many women as possible feel confident AF in their own skin, too.

Testimonials

"I just wanted to let you know that this program works!!!

I have never struggled with acne but then I turned 21 and then I broke out all over my fave. I never wanted to go anywhere and didn't want to talk to anybody. I became very depressed and angry. There were times I wanted to quit the program because I felt like nothing was working! By the grace of God, He got me through and I am healed! I just wanted to encourage everyone to keep going!!! You got this! Don't give up! Good things are coming!"

"I actually enjoy the look of my face with less make-up."

 I used to wear a lot of powder and concealer to cover the break out areas, as well as to hide my scars. Both my breakouts and scars are lessening in amount and redness!!
