About this episode
Tracy Duhs discusses eczema and its underlying causes with Dr. Diane Angela Fong, highlighting the gut-skin connection and emotional factors often overlooked in treatment.
Eczema flares feel like your body is betraying you — even when you're doing everything right. Clean products, good food, the supplements. And you're still itchy, inflamed, and frustrated. Tracy sat down with Dr. Diane Angela Fong, naturopathic doctor and eczema specialist, to break down what's actually happening beneath the surface. The big reveal: your skin might not be the problem — it might be the signal. And the root is often where no one thinks to look. We get into microbial imbalance, why antibiotics and C-sections matter more than you think, the gut-skin axis, and — most importantly — the emotional and nervous system piece that most people completely miss.
