We chat with Ash from DLC Nutrition on the benefits of nurturing your gut in order to achieve that glow from within.
Tell us a bit about yourself:
Ash: My name is Ashleigh, I’m the owner at DLC Nutrition and I’m passionate about holistic health and wellness. I believe in the power of nourishing both the body and the mind for overall well-being. Our vision at DLC Nutrition is to grow our community to 5,000 local people, with a strong emphasis on Nutrition, Association & Education.
How do you believe nutrition plays a role in achieving radiant skin and overall wellness?
Ash: Nutrition serves as the cornerstone of radiant skin and overall wellness, as what we consume directly influences our skin’s health and appearance. Considering that your gut functions as your “second brain,” a valuable tip is to integrate aloe vera concentrate into your routine. Not only does it aid digestion, but it also boosts skin radiance with its hydrating and antioxidant properties.
Additionally, maintaining a balanced diet rich in proteins, complex carbohydrates, healthy fats, and hydration provides essential nutrients that support skin health, promoting a natural glow from within.
"Consider your gut functions as your second brain."
Can you share some insights into the connection between dietary habits and skin health?
Ash: Our dietary habits influence various aspects of skin health, including hydration levels, collagen production, and inflammation. For instance, foods high in sugar and processed fats can lead to inflammation. Conversely, incorporating nutrient-dense foods and smart supplementation can nourish the skin and promote a clear complexion.
How do you envision the combination of DLC Nutrition’s drinks and Empowering Beauty’s self-care treatments benefiting clients?
Ash: The combination of DLC Nutrition’s drinks, packed with skin-loving ingredients, and Empowering Beauty’s self-care treatments offers a holistic approach to skincare. DLC Nutrition’s drinks provide targeted nutrients to support skin health from within, while Empowering Beauty’s treatments offer external care and relaxation.
Together, they provide clients with comprehensive support for achieving and maintaining radiant, healthy skin.
What specific nutrients or ingredients should individuals focus on to enhance their skin’s natural glow?
Ash: To enhance skin’s natural glow, individuals should focus on nutrients like vitamins C and E, and antioxidants like those found in our hydration drinks. Additionally, omega-3 fatty acids from sources like fish support skin hydration and elasticity.
Hydration is also crucial, so drinking plenty of our incredible smoothies and herbal teas can help maintain skin moisture levels. Lastly, aloe vera, a key ingredient utilised at DLC, not only promotes digestive health but can also enhances skin radiance.
In your experience, how can a holistic approach to wellness, including both nutrition and self-care treatments, contribute to a healthier lifestyle?
Ash: By integrating nutrition, supplementation and self-care treatments, individuals can address their health from multiple angles, leading to improved overall well-being. Nourishing the body with nutrient-rich foods and smart supplementation supports physical health, while self-care practices such as meditation, skincare rituals, and massage promote mental and emotional balance. Together, they create a foundation for a healthier lifestyle, fostering radiance inside and out.
