Naturopath and nutritionist, Ananda Mahony and fx Medicine ambassador Emma Sutherland deep dive into the triggers and causes of rosacea, and the intricate connection of the gut-skin axis.

Ananda helps to unravel the complex nature of this progressive inflammatory condition, the causes and risk factors of rosacea, and how the gut plays a pivotal role in symptom manifestation and progression.

She stresses the importance of treating holistically, both internally and topically, and how as clinicians we can help our patients in down-regulating inflammation associated with rosacea through diet and lifestyle and targeted supplementation.

This podcast is full of clinical pearls to support clinicians to identify, manage, and treat rosacea using a holistic approach.
