Your skin is your indicator of your general health
What is your skin issue(s)? Acne, rosacea, psoriasis, dry, oily, wrinkled? We are always aiming for balance here no matter the skin issues. Numerous factors could be contributing to your skin issues. Stress increases oil production in the skin. Changes in hormones (cortisol/stress hormone, sex hormones, and thyroid) directly impacts skin function and appearance. Inflammation can increase redness. Dehydration can cause a lackluster, more wrinkled appearance.
So yes, your largest organ in your body is giving you signals about your health. Are you listening?
