    About the Episode:

    What is acne and how can you treat it while also improving your overall health? In this episode Caralyn Hale helps explain where a teenager (or anyone) struggling with acne can get started to help heal and stop breakouts. She explains what a healthy skin routine looks like, how to find the right products and insure you aren’t destroying your skin barrier. She goes on to also look at what is happening internally when acne is an issue, how to tell if your acne is hormonal, and what to do if it is. She covers realistic diet strategies to help maintain a healthy relationship to food but also understand how to increase nutrient dense foods and to decrease known acne triggers. She also talks about how she helps women dealing with post-pill acne and why the pill doesn’t fix—and can even cause—acne. “Things will get better!” she says to teens struggling with acne. “Acne has been my greatest teacher. It has encouraged me to find the best version of myself.” If your teenager wants more, but doesn’t want to listen to this whole episode, then my teenager simplifies the episode in her “Teen Splain”.

    About the Show and your Host:

    Are you a parent to a teenager? For most parents, the teenage years can be the most challenging. Parenthood will make the best of us rethink our fundamental values and question our preconceived beliefs. The Raising Greener Teens podcast invites listeners to use their skills of curiosity, research, and humour to further develop as experts in the care of their family and to help guide the teens in their care to do the same.

    Host Manda Aufochs Gillespie is the author of Green Mama & Green Mama-to-be, creator of the award-winning website thegreenmama.com, and founder of Folk University (folku.ca) and FolkU radio. She interviews doctors, naturopaths, sex educators, brain researchers, drug counsellors, parents who seem to be doing it better, and all sorts of interesting people in this series to provide inspiration to parents of teens and pre-teens, and—hopefully—teens themselves. Join Manda and her teenage daughter as they ask the experts: Is this the way it’s supposed to be?
