What nutrients help make gorgeous skin? 

In this week's episode of the Less Stressed Life Podcast, I got the chance to talk to "the guy" for vitamins and minerals, Chris Masterjohn, Ph.D., about the different nutrient deficiencies related to skin issues and what nutrients support skin integrity.

Here are some of the key takeaways:

• [14:50] Skin manifestations and relief
• [32:47] Four nutrient deficiencies with similar skin manifestations
• [40:52] Vitamin A plant-based & animal-based food sources
• [47:01] Tips on Molybdenum intake

Mentioned in this episode:

• Vitamins and Minerals 101: How to Get the Nutrients You Need on Any Diet by Dr. Chris Masterjohn
• Nutrition and Physical Degeneration by Dr. Weston Price 
• Primal Defense Ultra by Garden of Life 
• Dexpanthenol cream 

Chris Materjohn earned his Ph.D. in Nutritional Sciences from the University of Connecticut in the summer of 2012. He served as a postdoctoral research associate in the Comparative Biosciences department of the College of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. From August 2014 to December 2016, he served as Assistant Professor of Health and Nutrition Sciences at Brooklyn College, part of the City University of New York. He decided to leave academia and pursue entrepreneurship in the Fall of 2016. In 2017, he's been conducting independent research, consulting, working on information products, collaborating on information and technology products, and producing tons of free content to help people gain better health. His mission is to grapple with complex science and translates it into practical principles that each of us can use to better support our health.
