What You'll Learn
Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) is a multifactorial disease caused in part by changes in the skin microbiome. But what about the gut? And the impact of nutrition on HS? The health of the gut microbiome is increasingly being shown to be an important factor in health. This course will explore the evidence supporting the relationship between the gut-skin axis, nutrition, and HS.
Learning Objectives
- Define the connection between the gut and skin microbiome and HS
- Examine the association between weight, metabolic syndrome, and HS
- Discuss the role of food based testing in HS management and list the foods that are associated with worsening HS
