Whitney Bowe
Every year nearly 80 million Americans will consult their doctors about their skin. In fact skin disorders beat out anxiety depression back pain and diabetes as the number one reason Americans see their doctors. Unfortunately however the vast majority will receive only a surface-level treatment leaving the underlying conditions at the root of their skin issues unresolved. Skin doesn't lie; it reflects overall health in unimaginable ways.

As a pioneering researcher on the cutting edge of the gut-brain-skin axis she explains how the spectrum of skin disorders -- from stubborn acne and rosacea to psoriasis eczema and premature wrinkling -- are manifestations of irregularities rooted in the gut. Lasers scalpels creams and prescription pads alone will not guarantee the consistently healthy glowing skin we all seek. Instead Dr. Bowe focuses on the microbiome -- where trillions of microbes "speak" to your skin via the brain -- and highlights the connection between sleep stress diet gastrointestinal health and the health of your skin.
With simple explanations of the science do-it-yourself practical skincare strategies and a life-changing 3-week program Dirty Looks is your roadmap to great skin from the inside out and the outside in.
