Could your daily salad be sabotaging your skin? Dr. Stacey Shillington and nutritionist Holly Corkum-Sears flip the script on conventional nutrition wisdom, revealing why raw foods might not be the holy grail for acne sufferers.

Drawing from both ancient wisdom traditions and modern nutritional science, this eye-opening conversation explores how cooking transforms not just the taste of food, but its impact on your skin. While we've been conditioned to believe massive salads and green smoothies are detoxifying powerhouses, the reality is far more nuanced – especially for those with compromised digestion.

The discussion weaves through fascinating territory: how oxalates in leafy greens can deplete essential minerals, why cooking makes certain skin-supporting nutrients more bioavailable, and how even "healthy" habits like juicing can trigger hormonal cascades that worsen breakouts. You'll discover practical modifications to make smoothies more digestible, learn why bone broth contains healing compounds that directly repair both gut and skin, and understand the surprising connection between food temperature and your body's ability to heal.

Perhaps most shocking is the revelation about food safety – those pre-washed salad greens might be harboring more than just vitamins. The experts share their personal routines, including how they prepare nutrient-dense broths enhanced with medicinal mushrooms and herbs, and why they're embracing warming foods as temperatures drop.
