Very interesting post! Could your diet be making you more susceptible to getting skin cancer!?

I've been telling you for years that your cell membranes are made of phospholipid molecules, & that phospholipid molecules are made of meat & fat. (See my phospholipid molecule post, or take my Amazing Cell course [link in linktree]).

The phospholipid molecule has a head & two tails. One tail is rigid & made of saturated fat (so YES! we need to eat it!), & the other tail is flexible & made of unsaturated oil. Ideally our unsaturated tails would be made of monounsaturated (MUFA) oils, but we also need a mix of polyunsaturated (PUFA) omega 3s & 6s. Remember nature provides us with everything we need in the QUANTITIES we need. Omega 3s are found in fish (mostly), & omega 6s are found in seeds.

We all (should) know by now that seed OILS are problematic in the diet because of the quantity we eat them in. We were never meant to eat seeds or their oils in the quantities we do. Add to that the horrible manufacturing processes that heat these already unstable PUFAs creating a ready-to-use rancid product sold as a healthy alternative to actually-healthy animal fat.

With regard to the skin, a diet rich in omega-3 fats reduced skin inflammation & tumor incidence during UVB exposure when compared with an equivalent dietary level of omega-6 fats.

Studies indicate that omega-3 fatty acids have beneficial effects against UVB-induced initiation of skin cancer formation, & these effects may be associated with an inhibition on UVB-induced inflammatory responses.

Study groups fed omega 6 corn oil had a 6x greater increase in inflammatory markers, induced acute inflammation, & increased UV cancer expression.

It has now been demonstrated that both the level of dietary lipid intake & the degree of lipid saturation have pronounced effects on photoinduced skin cancer, with increasing levels of unsaturated fat intake enhancing cancer expression. The level of intake of these lipids is also manifested in the level of epidermal lipid peroxidation.

Eating a balance of stable saturated fats like animal fats & coconut oil, & MUFA olive or avocado oil, or PUFA fish oil will give you resilient & flexible skin.

✅️
Eating processed seed oils like soybean oil, canola oil, shortening (Crisco), hydrogenated oils, corn oil, margarine, sunflower oil, & safflower oil, will make your skin more sensitive to sun damage.
🌞
A "healthy" person has about 2% of PUFA in their body fat on average, however, people eating a SAD may contain as much as 30% of PUFA in their body fat.
🤢
Higher than normal levels of PUFAs can lead to bodily inflammation & reduced energy, which, in turn, can contribute to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, & skin cancer.

All of the skin irregularities in this video (with the exception of the last one discussed - molluscum) are something I can treat! There's a little bit of misinformation about milia in this video so ignore that. If you have a lesion on your skin you want to get rid of contact me so we can discuss if it's something I can help you with or if I need to refer you to a derm. I use a high frequency device called electrodessication for these irregularities.

It's been awhile since I've posted about myself and you all seem to enjoy these posts the most. Hi! 👋 I'm Kalley, the owner, Licensed Esthetician and Certified Acne Specialist at Origin Skin Studio Holistic Acne Clinic in Neenah, WI. If you haven't had the chance to meet me yet here are a few things that I spend my time doing outside of work.

✨ I spend as much time as I can with my fur daughter, Winifred Sanderson aka Winnie. She is the sweetest baby and unfortunately has lymphoma so we're spoiling her while we can!
✨ I also spend as much time as I can with my wonderful boyfriend and his amazing family (as pictured here with his mother)
✨ My current ADHD hyper fixation is reading. I've read 3.5 books in the past 4 days. Love, Mom made it's way into my top favorites this week. 5/5 recommend!
✨ I love to get tattooed as often as possible! After 4 sessions and 7 months we finally finished my Bigfoot riding a unicorn while getting abducted by a UFO tattoo (I love the paranormal and cryptids) 5/5 recommend Bea from black Thorn tattoo in Menasha!
✨ I'm big into true crime podcasts and listen to them daily. Morbid is my favorite! Shout out to the "Weirdos"!

That's all for now. If you're new here I hope to meet you soon! 🖤

GLYCOLIC ACID is commonly found in over the counter skincare with 10% or less potency. Professional peels can contain 20%-70% glycolic acid. These peels can have a wide range of pH which can also alter how effective they are. Depending on the pH sometimes a 20% is even more effective than a 70% glycolic acid. Glycolic acid is amongst the most dangerous acids for your skin barrier because it's molecular structure is the smallest (which means it penetrates the deepest). So how do these peels "work"? They break down "dead" skin cells to exfoliate the skin and clean out pores. "Dead" skin cells are in fact dead, but they are nonetheless important for healthy skin. They provide protection for immature cells beneath them. They are NEEDED and a very necessary part of the skin barrier defense system. Removing too many of them will leave your skin inflamed, sensitized, and in survival mode until those cells can be replaced which can take weeks. Removing them creates a direct pathway to damaging your lipids which are absolutely crucial for skin health.

Guess what else glycolic acid is used for? To clean out cement trucks. Yup. You heard me right. 50%+ glycolic acid is used to break down HARDENED CONCRETE and that's the same ingredient (albeit in different percentages and levels of pH) you're putting on your FACE.

"This acidic cleaning solution, primarily composed of glycolic acid (50%-60% by weight), effectively breaks down and removes hardened concrete from tools, trucks, scaffolding, and other hard surfaces. " (Source: ecolink.com)

🛑 STOP USING GLYCOLIC ACID ON YOUR SKIN!

"But I eat very healthy!" If I had a dollar for every time a client said that to me .... But guess what? Sometimes a "healthy" diet is actually problematic. These two photos were taken two weeks apart and we only made one change. His products stayed the same, lifestyle and stress levels remained unchanged. So what changed? We cut strawberries and peppers out of his diet. Could your diet be part of the reason why you're breaking out? Book your Diagnostic Facial to find out!
