Read about the microbiome discoveries set to shake up skincare on my website www.honest.scot/skincare/the-skin-biome-discoveries-set-to-shake-up-skincare-forever/
I read recently that blastocystis (a gut parasite) is more active in the gut when we are stressed. This means that our emotions/ nervous system can influence our microbiome, a facet of health which is rarely discussed. Blasto is linked to acne.
Fascinating. I have been coming to this awareness on my own. I'm past 65. I have become a scientist of my own skin and although I don't know the answers, I observed that there is more going on than a need for moisturizers or other standard treatments. Thank you!
😂so that makes you a scientist? That’s called basic logic. Anyone who thinks moisturising is the sole reason for skin issues, is an imbecile. Don’t toot your own horn, seriously. Past 65 too… So basically, you’d like to THINK you’ve become a scientist of your own skin. Jeez the amount of ego I see in people who post nowadays.
@@nihilisticprophet6985 Iv'e done that too, about a tablespoon of it (Braggs brand). I don't think everyone's skin is sensitive to apple cider vinegar to the same degree though. I'm fine with using it on my skin undiluted, at least the Braggs brand. I also used it undiluted on my breakouts when I had shingles. That really helped to dry them up. People do it without any issues.
Cosmetic series based on a concept of recreating microbiome of a young skin are very popular in Korea nowadays, just like collagen or HA were the promoted key ingredients in skincare maaany years ago.
I'm only at the beginning of the video but let me tell you that this system has enabled me to learn and change my lifestyle a lot throughout the years and I think all these investigations and sharing of information are really enabled by this freedom of initiative in the American way of doing things. I am French and never would this be allowed in Europe, which is why you don't get the latest news that enable you to understand your health and take the necessary steps there. You don't know if this is valid or not without trying it. But there's absolutely no reason why the people sharing their own research and discoveries wouldn't also be the ones formulating new products, in fact, it makes perfect sense. Nobody forces you to buy anyway, just like nobody is forbidden you to actually "be the change you want to see", or to even try to investigate and research the topic to determine if it seems valid and is worth trying. It's all presented here for you to make choices. It's the result of a LOT of work and research. If you only have bad things to say about it you're giving these innovations no incentive, which is sad, because they really are so needed. Take what you want out of it and what you're not interested in, by all means leave out, but if you can't appreciate it at least respect it.
This guy really seems to get it and I love how he calls out old info that just keeps getting repeated so people think it's truth. We are always advancing our knowledge and industry shouldn't fight it but keep up IMO :)
Agreed; that was really the best part in my opinion when he said basically the internet and bodies of research have become nothing but echo chambers. It's true of _everything_ not just skin health.
..my experience: give a try to rose hip oil.. it cured me from that.. Also, drink water, wear sunblock zinc based, and micelar gel to clean skin. Dont use hialuronic acid, nor any other kind of oil. Pat dry with tissue paper, change your pillow case frecuently. Avoid drastic temperature changes. Clean your eyebrows and eyelashes. Use antibiotics/retinol for acne (just where is needed) In a few months your skin will be fantastic!
It is because certain signaling is taking place that is leaking all the moisture out. I have the same issue. I could decrease the numbers of flare ups with non processed high fruit and vegetable foods and previous IPL treatments. I tried to moisturise heavily and it didn't really go away. I toned down all skin care instead because it contributed to the flushing
@@silvana8737 Hey. Do you mind pointing me to a source, it reminds me a lot about theories I'd read about a long time ago and that had proved very useful, but still different.
I was pleasantly surprised at how much of this I followed. Your guest knows his stuff and I like his scepticism and acknowledgment of the complexities too. V interesting
@@thehonestchannel well English is not my first language (I am Swedish) so I might listen to it again as the subject is really interesting! Thank You for answering back!
I am in my late 70's. I have had very good skin all my life. Even as a teenager, is was clear and soft with never a spot. I'm often asked what I do to keep it like this. I have thought and analysed, as a one time RN and Biologist major in microbiology. 1. Pick the right parents. A certain amount is genetic. I am a Celt, we are renown for our skin. and both my parents had clear soft skin up to their passing. 2. Never, ever, use soap on your face as a cleanser. Use a non-petrol based cleanser which you wash off with clear water. Only ever use natural products. 3. Never, ever, use makeup. At most all I ever used all my life was a little light lipstick for special occasions, and as I got older, some mascara again, only for special occasions. 4. Never, ever smoke, or drink alcohol to excess. 5. Always eat a good diet. Stay away from all junk and fast food. Eat only two meals a day, of moderate size, consisting of a protein source you can recognise, ie. a piece of meat ,eggs, and fresh vegetables. 6. Never eat white sugar, and keep carbs like bread and potatoes to a minimum 7. Always use UV blocker on the your face and neck and decolletage, every day, summer and winter alike, but get plenty of sunlight for the good InfraRed which can penetrate the UV blocker. 8. Drink plenty of clear water. Get plenty of sleep or rest.
Very interesting Clare. I find this topic to be so fascinating. Would love to know what skin care we put on our face that really does nothing, and vice versa.
@@tumbleweeduk7479 that's interesting cuz my brother and his daughter both have true celiac disease. i tested negative for celiac. but maybe i should try gluten free for awhile.
If you don't want wrinkles stop using soap on your face, I found this out when COVID had us washed out hands every time we touch some thing all of a sudden wrinkle hands🤔
Super interesting video thanks so much can't wait for the second part. Wondering if you use his skin care products as they're quite pricey? if not would love for you to give them a try and see what you think because some of the before and after shots are quite unbelievable.
I’d love to try the Biojuve products as the before and afters do look genuinely impressive. I think I’ll need to wait until it becomes more widely available though.
I know that some people claim that their skin or hair improved when they stopped washing it and only using water to cleanse it, could this be related to the microbiome?
Hello Clare- this is fascinating stuff. Please ask the doc how we regular people can buy his products. They are available only through doctors and estheticians. Is there a reason for this? Thanks
It’s quite new but if you google Biojuve some clinics are selling it online. I’d also like to try it at some point so I’m hoping it becomes more widely available.
Good information. Not so good interviewer. He’s having to think on his feet to appropriately give her background info beyond her. I”m glad she did it and put up the video..but clearly hasn’t enough knowledge of biology to catch 1)key points 2)ask in depth questions on those points. Not disparaging, here and again I thank her for the video ! Will seek the sequel..
Thanks for interviewing this scientist. He presents us with facts based on rigorous scientific data and research which can be relied upon and used for improving skin health and wellness.
Hi Claire, that is absolutely fascinating and very complex indeed. It tested the old grey cells! I had never even considered any of this before - but can’t wait to hear how in fact the ph can be lowered. Thank you x
Multi-pronged approach or an ‘Inside and out’ approach. 1. Nutrition 2. Prevention(SPF UV damage) 3. Effective topicals: vit C, vit A(retinoids), B3 & B5 vitamins (panthenol and niacinamide). Not a one and done thing. Then of course there’s other options like additional treatments laser and biostimulators to keep your skin in the best health.

I've always believed that a healthy gut has a strong, less-diverse biofilm of bacteria which forms a mostly-impenetrable safety net from pathogens. This biofilm gets impregnated at a very young age and is really difficult to considerably change. The (external) skin should have similar qualities. It's probably useful to think of both as an ecosystem, with all the complexities. There's a niche for all different forms of life, but certain things will flourish and predominate in some areas, though all play a role in keeping the others in check, or fit (on their toes so to speak). But, just like an ecosystem, the terrain is also important to what can live in and on it. Old skin may be victim to more pathogenic bacteria because the "soil quality" has gone down, there is less moisture and nutrients, etc., and that shifts what will live on it. Similarly, not all humans, at any point in their life, would be capable of supporting an optimal flora. Yes the flora help the human, but let's not forget it's a symbiotic relationship. Due to things like, e.g., poor digestion, an organ weakness, or genetic variation that produces more this or less that, we may be less capable of supporting an "optimal" biome (likely a simplified idea that there is a universal optimal).
This is beautifully put. The ‘holobiont’ is definitely something I want to spend more time exploring with different experts on this channel. It’s endlessly fascinating and I feel like we’re only just beginning to understand it.
I’m sure wrinkles have to do with many factors, not just skin bacteria. Probably genetics play a part, as well as how much processed foods one eats, for example.

OMG, I'm literally awaiting results of a fecal bacteria test by Thorne that purports to give insights into "gut health,", and now I'm hearing that maybe stool contains what we _don't_ have or need?! Thank you so much for this wildly informative interview.
@@thehonestchannel Yes, that's true, but I spent $300 assuming I was getting an analysis of what _is_ in and being used by my gut without any knowledge at _all_ that it might not be and, in fact, might be the opposite of that. If I'd known better, I wouldn't have spent $300 on a crap shoot (get it, LOL?).
Check out super gut by William Davis. 96 percent of the American population is missing the "keystone" species of bacteria that are still present in indigenous populations that haven't been modernized.
So this researcher is saying, condemning C. Acnes based on how one strain’s characteristics is within that group is like looking at the poisonous nightshade plant and condemning all of its related related plants(tomatoes, potatoes, eggplants, etc)?
toxin's such as in tobacco damage from within, and UV sunlight from without. While controlling for both, and assuming skin needs air contact to avoid the wrong environment. Then what sort of clothing would provide enough protection without compromising the environment by too much insulation. Our skin sensor feedbacks to the brain may also allow awareness, and care if allowed. We wouldn't dream of covering our face after all for the feedback it gives.
Thanks for your question. We're talking about how to lower the skin pH in this Sunday's video so hopefully that helps. I will ask this question specifically though when we record the follow-up.
There's a list of US stockists (some sell online) on the Biojuve website (www.biojuve.com) or you can try googling Biojuve with your location to find a stockist closer to you.
