And this is something that I've actually 28 00:01:26,321 --> 00:01:28,521 Speaker 3: struggled with from a young age. So when I was 29 00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,041 Speaker 3: a little girl, like my mum couldn't even buy shampoo 30 00:01:31,081 --> 00:01:33,681 Speaker 3: conditioner from wool Worse because it would make my head 31 00:01:34,121 --> 00:01:35,801 Speaker 3: raw red raw. 32 00:01:35,721 --> 00:01:36,481 Speaker 2: Like my skin. 33 00:01:36,681 --> 00:01:39,521 Speaker 3: It was just it would strip my skin so badly anyway, 34 00:01:40,161 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 3: so that I would get like crisis all over my head. 35 00:01:42,481 --> 00:01:44,601 Speaker 3: I'd get it all over my chest, all over my back, 36 00:01:44,721 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 3: and I actually, funnily enough, have it at the moment. 37 00:01:47,681 --> 00:01:50,561 Speaker 3: And this is something over the years I've learned how 38 00:01:50,601 --> 00:01:52,761 Speaker 3: to deal with because I've learned about my body and 39 00:01:52,801 --> 00:01:54,721 Speaker 3: what my body can take and not take, and what 40 00:01:54,801 --> 00:01:56,001 Speaker 3: I have come to learn this. 41 00:01:55,881 --> 00:01:56,641 Speaker 2: Is for me personally. 42 00:01:56,641 --> 00:01:58,881 Speaker 3: It might not be the same for you, but for me, 43 00:01:59,281 --> 00:02:02,001 Speaker 3: my crisis comes out when I eat gluten. I'm intolerant 44 00:02:02,001 --> 00:02:04,681 Speaker 3: to gluten, and I have learned that through a natural path. 45 00:02:04,721 --> 00:02:06,561 Speaker 3: I went go tested and everything like that, and my 46 00:02:06,641 --> 00:02:09,441 Speaker 3: body just cannot digest it properly. And that is what 47 00:02:09,441 --> 00:02:12,441 Speaker 3: seems to be the thing that sparks mysiasis. So when 48 00:02:12,601 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 3: I don't eat gluten, it completely goes away. So there's 49 00:02:16,561 --> 00:02:18,961 Speaker 3: no steroid cream that works that gets rid of it. 50 00:02:19,001 --> 00:02:21,401 Speaker 3: Because steroid creams you're not supposed to use for a 51 00:02:21,401 --> 00:02:23,961 Speaker 3: long term. They're supposed to be a temporary fix. I 52 00:02:24,001 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 3: personally think they're a band aid fix. I don't think 53 00:02:25,841 --> 00:02:28,601 Speaker 3: they're a solution. I don't personally use them. I have 54 00:02:28,721 --> 00:02:31,081 Speaker 3: in the past to help when it's been really bad, 55 00:02:31,481 --> 00:02:34,441 Speaker 3: But honestly, my best suggestion for you is to go 56 00:02:34,761 --> 00:02:37,921 Speaker 3: get your gut checked, like, go to a naturopath if 57 00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:40,121 Speaker 3: you can, if you can afford to do it, go 58 00:02:40,161 --> 00:02:42,441 Speaker 3: to a nutropath. Go see what it is that's happening 59 00:02:42,441 --> 00:02:45,321 Speaker 3: within your body, because your skin conditions have to do 60 00:02:45,361 --> 00:02:47,761 Speaker 3: with either your gut or your liver, so something in 61 00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:51,201 Speaker 3: your body is not happy right now. And yeah, honestly, 62 00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:53,641 Speaker 3: for me, the best thing that I did was go 63 00:02:53,721 --> 00:02:56,281 Speaker 3: on a gut protocol. Basically, in simple terms, without you 64 00:02:56,321 --> 00:02:57,761 Speaker 3: having to go and fork out all the money for 65 00:02:57,841 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 3: a protocol, what you can do. You may be intolerant 66 00:03:01,401 --> 00:03:02,961 Speaker 3: to gluten, you can try it. I don't know if 67 00:03:03,001 --> 00:03:04,441 Speaker 3: it's going to be the best solution because it's not 68 00:03:04,481 --> 00:03:07,441 Speaker 3: specific to your body. But see what it is that 69 00:03:07,441 --> 00:03:09,721 Speaker 3: your body reacts to. Like if there's something you know 70 00:03:09,761 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: that you're eating and you feel a bit bloated and 71 00:03:11,401 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 3: you feel a bit sick in the tom, cut it out, 72 00:03:13,921 --> 00:03:16,441 Speaker 3: Drink filtered water. If you can get on bone broth, 73 00:03:16,441 --> 00:03:18,641 Speaker 3: get on bone broth. What else do I do? 74 00:03:18,841 --> 00:03:19,561 Speaker 1: Be organs? 75 00:03:19,761 --> 00:03:22,481 Speaker 3: Yeap organ tablets, So I take organ tablets. Those are 76 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:25,921 Speaker 3: really really helpful. And I highly suggest getting a shampoo 77 00:03:25,921 --> 00:03:27,041 Speaker 3: and conditioner that is. 78 00:03:27,041 --> 00:03:28,961 Speaker 2: Not store board because you might not get it here. 79 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,161 Speaker 2: It might be a body yes that's true. 80 00:03:31,361 --> 00:03:33,441 Speaker 1: Yeah, like a body wash or something that could like 81 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:35,401 Speaker 1: strip because I remember the other day you said you 82 00:03:35,441 --> 00:03:38,361 Speaker 1: used to cleanser on your chest and it kind of stripped, 83 00:03:38,361 --> 00:03:41,001 Speaker 1: and it's a really gentle, beautiful cleanser. But any kind 84 00:03:41,001 --> 00:03:43,801 Speaker 1: of product, I suppose soap wise, whether it shampoo or 85 00:03:44,001 --> 00:03:46,241 Speaker 1: a body wash, would strip your skin. And then if 86 00:03:46,241 --> 00:03:48,161 Speaker 1: it has fragments in it or yes, just a shit 87 00:03:48,161 --> 00:03:50,921 Speaker 1: on the other ingredients. You need to go cold turkey 88 00:03:50,961 --> 00:03:52,481 Speaker 1: on what you're putting on your body. 89 00:03:52,521 --> 00:03:53,241 Speaker 2: You definitely do. 90 00:03:53,361 --> 00:03:55,641 Speaker 3: So I would cut out anything that has fragrance, like 91 00:03:55,641 --> 00:03:58,161 Speaker 3: well actually said I can't, especially not at the moment 92 00:03:58,201 --> 00:04:00,481 Speaker 3: while my body is flat. I can't use anything with fragrance, 93 00:04:00,521 --> 00:04:04,041 Speaker 3: So things like w Letta, which is a really clean, natural, 94 00:04:04,041 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 3: no fragrance brand that I find has been good for me. Yeah, 95 00:04:07,481 --> 00:04:10,161 Speaker 3: anything with no fragrance body washes, stay away from those 96 00:04:10,521 --> 00:04:11,441 Speaker 3: if they have fragrance. 97 00:04:11,561 --> 00:04:14,321 Speaker 2: Stripping the oil strong sense, Yeah, not good. 98 00:04:15,201 --> 00:04:16,761 Speaker 1: I like what you're talking about the gut health though, 99 00:04:16,801 --> 00:04:20,241 Speaker 1: because even though you're intolerant to gluten, if your gut 100 00:04:20,281 --> 00:04:22,081 Speaker 1: is in flame, which gluten is in flame your gut, 101 00:04:22,081 --> 00:04:24,481 Speaker 1: but if your gut has any type of inflammation, your 102 00:04:24,481 --> 00:04:27,281 Speaker 1: skin is a representation of that. Yes, So regardless of 103 00:04:27,361 --> 00:04:29,681 Speaker 1: products to use not to use, if you're not going 104 00:04:29,681 --> 00:04:31,881 Speaker 1: to the root cause, which is your gut health, then 105 00:04:31,921 --> 00:04:32,841 Speaker 1: it's not going to get better. 106 00:04:32,961 --> 00:04:33,161 Speaker 2: Yes. 107 00:04:33,201 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: So, whether it's through a natch path or whether it 108 00:04:34,961 --> 00:04:38,361 Speaker 1: is through like eliminating things, going on a gut protocol, 109 00:04:38,641 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: doing a lot of research depending on where you're at 110 00:04:40,241 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: and what your budget is, butus definitely getting help to 111 00:04:43,201 --> 00:04:45,641 Speaker 1: really clean out your gut, rebuild the lining back up. 112 00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:48,961 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, there's actually a gut powder that I use. 113 00:04:49,681 --> 00:04:51,361 Speaker 3: I mean, I personally don't know if it helps with 114 00:04:51,401 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 3: my skin, but I take it anyway because I know 115 00:04:53,281 --> 00:04:54,361 Speaker 3: my gut is inflamed. 116 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:55,921 Speaker 2: It's metagenics. 117 00:04:56,001 --> 00:04:59,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, metagenics and it's called glutagenics is actual product. I 118 00:04:59,481 --> 00:05:02,161 Speaker 3: take that like twice a day regardless, just to help. 119 00:05:02,161 --> 00:05:05,401 Speaker 3: And those other supplements I mentioned really do helps well. 120 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:07,321 Speaker 3: So if you can kind of get enough nutrients into 121 00:05:07,361 --> 00:05:10,361 Speaker 3: your body and help your skin internally, that's going to 122 00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,401 Speaker 3: be the best option. I would stay away from all 123 00:05:12,401 --> 00:05:15,081 Speaker 3: the topical stuff unless it is really bad where you're like, oh, 124 00:05:15,401 --> 00:05:17,361 Speaker 3: I need to just you're scared and you want to 125 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,121 Speaker 3: hide it and you scared of other people seeing it, 126 00:05:19,201 --> 00:05:21,761 Speaker 3: or you're feeling really insecure about it, then I understand. 127 00:05:22,401 --> 00:05:24,561 Speaker 3: But I think for me personally, like I know, when 128 00:05:24,561 --> 00:05:26,241 Speaker 3: I can see it on my body, I'm like, okay, 129 00:05:26,241 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 3: I haven't solved the problem yet, you know. 130 00:05:28,681 --> 00:05:30,841 Speaker 2: So if you can be willing to be patient with. 131 00:05:30,801 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 3: Yourself, it may take a lot longer for it to 132 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,401 Speaker 3: go away, but at least if you know that you're 133 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,161 Speaker 3: healing it from the inside, then you know that the 134 00:05:37,161 --> 00:05:39,561 Speaker 3: problem is actually being solved, as opposed to like whacking 135 00:05:39,561 --> 00:05:40,721 Speaker 3: a band aid solution on it. 136 00:05:40,921 --> 00:05:42,681 Speaker 1: And don't let it sound scary when we say like 137 00:05:42,721 --> 00:05:44,161 Speaker 1: cut something out. I think a lot of people get 138 00:05:44,161 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: really scared to cut things out. But I mean, at 139 00:05:46,121 --> 00:05:47,561 Speaker 1: the end of the day, I don't know, when you 140 00:05:47,601 --> 00:05:48,921 Speaker 1: go back to Cape Ma and days, what were we 141 00:05:48,961 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 1: surviving off eat berries, nuts, fruits. There was nothing process, 142 00:05:53,241 --> 00:05:55,321 Speaker 1: There was nothing in packages, there was nothing being sprayed 143 00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,121 Speaker 1: with all the crap that our fruits and vegetables even 144 00:05:57,201 --> 00:06:00,121 Speaker 1: being sprayed with these days. Like even I hate say it, 145 00:06:00,121 --> 00:06:02,561 Speaker 1: but the venue some coals and woolies are being sprayed 146 00:06:02,601 --> 00:06:05,801 Speaker 1: by a million pesticides. They're grown in oil, and they're 147 00:06:05,801 --> 00:06:07,641 Speaker 1: plucked when they're not even ready to pluck, so they're 148 00:06:07,681 --> 00:06:10,481 Speaker 1: lacking nutrients. They're then frozen. Like, there's just so much 149 00:06:10,521 --> 00:06:14,361 Speaker 1: wrong with our food sources these days. If I was 150 00:06:14,361 --> 00:06:16,081 Speaker 1: in your position too, like I would be cutting it 151 00:06:16,161 --> 00:06:19,081 Speaker 1: back to basics. Yes, I'll be eating as quote unquote 152 00:06:19,121 --> 00:06:22,161 Speaker 1: clean and natural as possible, getting rid of all the process. 153 00:06:22,401 --> 00:06:26,241 Speaker 1: Obviously alcohol, drugs, cigarettes, vaping.
