Acne isn’t just about what you apply to your skin — it’s deeply connected to the balance of bacteria in your gut and skin. Research shows that an imbalance in the gut microbiome, known as dysbiosis, can trigger inflammation through the gut-skin axis, worsening acne symptoms. Probiotics, both from supplements and fermented foods, help restore this balance, reduce inflammation, and improve skin healing. This blog explores the science behind the gut-skin connection, the role of acne-related bacteria like Cutibacterium acnes, and practical ways to enhance skin health through diet and probiotic support. If acne is a persistent challenge, incorporating gut health strategies offers a natural and promising approach to clearer skin.
