Rosacea: Why Your Skin Is Flushing (and How Functional Medicine Can Help)

Rosacea is more than adult blush — it’s a chronic inflammatory condition that can cause persistent redness, visible blood vessels, and irritations. Functional medicine helps identify internal triggers to manage symptoms effectively.

Understanding Rosacea Beyond Surface SymptomsRosacea is linked to gut issues, immune responses, and chronic inflammation rather than simply skin sensitivity. A deeper look at your internal systems can uncover the root concerns.

Common Internal Contributors to Rosacea:

• Gut Imbalance: Small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) and dysbiosis can play a role.

• Inflammatory Diet: Spicy foods, alcohol, and certain beverages may aggravate rosacea by increasing inflammation.

• Immune Activation: A hyper‑reactive immune system can contribute to persistent redness.

Functional Medicine Strategies for Rosacea:A personalized plan may include:– Gut‑healing protocols– Anti‑inflammatory nutrition support– Stress reduction and sleep hygiene– Targeted supplements to support immune balance

Rosacea doesn’t need to control your life. By treating the body holistically and addressing internal causes, functional medicine offers a more sustainable path to reduced redness and improved confidence.
