When it comes to problematic skin, nutrition is key. In addition to providing the base ingredients the skin is comprised of, our diet can influence other processes in the body such as hormonal function, inflammation and organ health. At Aescend we aim to provide patients with long term solutions to their skin concerns. This is why we have partnered with Orenda Women's Health to bring you convenient, targeted and individualised dietary and lifestyle guidance.
NUTRITION SERVICES
Orenda Women's Health was founded by Jacinta Barbagallo, a nutritionist and women's health educator. Like many of our patients, Jacinta struggled for 15 years with psoriasis and amenorrhea (absence of a period). The only solutions offered to her were topical steroid and the pill.
ABOUT
In an effort to take her health and wellness into her own hands, Jacinta started to look into the role of lifestyle and diet and how these influence skin and general wellbeing. From this, Orenda was founded. Orenda is a collaboration of nutritionists and natropaths offering a holistic and functional approach to skin

Have you heard of the heirarchy of repair for treating a skin condition?
PSST....
when it comes to creating long lasting results with skin.
It begins with step 1.
THERE IS A MEtHOD
Gut health and optimising nutritional intake is the first step in addressing skin health. Our skin requires essential fatty acids (Omega 3), vitamin A, zinc, iron, B12, folate, calcium and so many more nutrients to function effectively - if your gut health is affected, so could be your nutritional absorption and your skin health
1. DIET, DIGESTION + GUT HEALTH
Detoxification is the root of addressing any skin related conditions as the skin is one of the body's largest organs of detoxification (.e. through sweat). Optimising skin health, requires optimal elimination pathways and support for liver function, gut health, urinary excretion and lymphatics.
2. Detoxification
Addressing blood sugar regulation is crucial for skin conditions - such as acne driven by hormones, psoriasis driven by metabolic functions, peri-oral dermatitis driven by inflammation... the list goes on. Your blood sugar is largely controlled by your dietary composition, movement, sleep routine, stress levels and genetics.
3. Blood sugar + inflammation
