09. If You Aren't Eating Enough For Your Body, Your Acne Will Keep Coming Back

What if the reason your skin isn’t clearing — despite eating clean, cutting out "acne triggering" foods, and taking acne supplements ... is because you’re just not eating enough?

Today, we're going to unpack why not eating enough WILL backfire, keeping your skin inflamed & breaking out, your hormones imbalanced, and your gut struggling (AKA making the root causes of your acne worse).

Because low calorie doesn't always mean healthy if your skin is still breaking out because of it 🫣🤷🏽‍♀️

📝 Here's What We're Going Over:

• Why eating 1200–1400 calories is not enough—even if you're trying to lose weight
• How under-eating makes your body stressed, slows down your metabolism, and messes up your hormones
• The surprising way constipation, bloating, and fatigue are all connected to low calorie diets
• Why acne is a visual sign of being nutrient and mineral deficient
• The difference between eating "high calories" and eating nutrient-dense meals
• How eating more can lead to easier periods, easier digestion, more energy in the afternoon, and clearer skin

📍 And if you take nothing from this episode PLEAAASSSEE remember: you can’t fix deeper root causes (like gut imbalances or hormonal issues) if your body doesn’t have the energy to heal.
