When I first started discussing digestion as a skincare expert, many of my business friends couldn’t believe I would combine such seemingly polar topics! It seemed outrageous.
Beauty and digestion?
But for me, after I discovered the truth, I couldn’t separate them… and since becoming a practitioner with a focus on detoxification, I am often amazed by the number of women struggling with bloating, constipation, stomach pain, body aches, brain fog, and so much more. It’s almost as if we’ve forgotten what it's like to be healthy.
We were never created to be sick, in pain, and tired. We were meant to thrive. You know?
We often think of constipation or digestive pain as something small or something to power through. But did you know that chronic constipation has been linked to higher risks of colon issues, toxic overload in the bloodstream, and even systemic illness? Most of us know someone within one degree of our circle who has digestive issues or a chronic illness… It's everywhere.
Here is the truth.
Our bodies are designed to heal, and elimination plays a crucial role at the very beginning of that process.
When waste sits in the body too long, toxins begin to reabsorb into the bloodstream. This “internal pollution” doesn’t just stay in the gut - it shows up everywhere. Headaches, fatigue, joint pain, mood swings, poor immunity, and yes, even skin problems, are all tied to what’s happening in digestion.
Studies show that unresolved constipation increases the risk of serious illness, including colon complications and systemic inflammation. In other words, the body is always talking, and digestion is one of its clearest voices.
And the miracle?
When you regulate digestion, your skin glows, wrinkles fade, your eyes brighten, and your face and body radiate health and healing!
That’s why I’m so passionate about helping women reclaim their vitality from the inside out. One of the simplest and most time-tested ways is through herbs like cascara sagrada, known for centuries as “sacred bark.” Unlike harsh synthetic laxatives, cascara works gently with the body to encourage healthy elimination and restore rhythm.
You were created to thrive, not just push through pain, fatigue, or brain fog. Let this be your reminder: your body is speaking, and healing begins with listening.
