Today on the podcast we’re continuing with our chat all about acne.
If you’ve suffered with acne, you’ve likely been blown off by multiple medical professionals.
Acne is certainly nothing to scoff at, especially not if you have debilitating painful cystic acne, or you’re getting it well after your teens.
And most importantly it can be the giant squawking canary in the coalmine telling you that there is something not right in your body.

P.S If you’re listening to Erin and thinking ‘hot damn, that program sounds exactly what I need!”, here’s all the info. As a quick summary, it’s an 8 module program that we deliver to you over 12 weeks to make sure that you have time to implement it all. We start by identifying what’s likely contributing to your PCOS i.e. ‘root cause’ (like Erin’s insulin was). Then we give you the most important changes you can make to what you eat, and how you live to fix that ‘root cause’. Any questions?
