In this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta welcomes Dr. Barbara Paldus, founder of Codex Labs, to explore breakthrough insights into eczema treatment. Dr. Paldus delves into the science behind the skin-gut-brain microbiome axis and explains how addressing both internal and external factors can revolutionize eczema care. Drawing on her recent TED Talk, she reveals that supporting gut health, reducing systemic inflammation, and restoring a balanced skin barrier can yield up to three times the benefits of traditional topical treatments.
Dr. Paldus outlines the two main theories behind eczema—whether it starts with a leaky gut or a weakened skin barrier—and emphasizes that true relief comes from a holistic approach. She shares compelling data and real-world results from Codex Labs’ innovative products, including the Bia Unscented Soap, Bia Eczema Relief Lotion, and Antü Skin Barrier Support Supplement. These products are designed to soothe, hydrate, and strengthen the skin from within, proving effective even in rigorous clinical trials.
The conversation highlights the importance of understanding the genetic and environmental factors that contribute to eczema, from mutations in the filaggrin gene to the role of Staphylococcus aureus. Dr. Paldus also offers practical advice on integrating dietary changes, stress management, and gentle skincare into a comprehensive routine that supports long-term skin health.
Tune in to discover how combining cutting-edge science with holistic wellness is paving the way for a new era in eczema treatment and learn why taking care of your skin from the inside out is the future of dermatology.
