EPISODE 137: Anyone who has ever struggled with chronic skin issues knows how devastating it can be and how hopeless it can feel. 

Well, today’s guest argues that this is because we spend too much time focusing on topical treatments instead of trying to heal our skin from within. 

Meet Jennifer Fugo, a clinical nutritionist empowering individuals with chronic skin issues who have been failed by conventional medicine. Jennifer holds a master's degree in Human Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport and is a licensed dietitian, nutritionist, and certified nutrition specialist. 

She has experience with conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, dandruff, and urticaria and has founded her own line of skincare products and nutritional supplements specifically for people struggling with these chronic skin conditions.

In our insightful conversation, Jennifer and I explore the skin from the inside out, focusing on gut health, food triggers, steroids, and the skin microbiome.
