Our skin is a reflection of what we put into our body. From breakouts to flare-ups, nutrition can be our skin's best friend or its worst enemy.

Joining Nicole is Dermatologist and Nutritionist Dr. Thivi Maruthappu who teaches us “G.L.O.W.”, her four-step solution to healthy and radiant skin, and explains how gut health and skin health are more linked than we think.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
