376: Natural Remedies to Build Collagen For Skin Health w/ Dr. Barbara Paldus

The Healthy Skin Show

Frustrated by aging skin, especially after years of skin issues? Collagen damage, dryness, and barrier dysfunction—often worsened by treatments, medications, and sun exposure—can accelerate the process.

So, what can you do to support healthier, more resilient skin?

In this episode, Dr. Barbara Paldus joins us to explore natural strategies to repair the skin barrier, support collagen health, and reduce inflammation. Founder of Codex Labs, Dr. Paldus applies biotech innovation to skincare, inspired by her son's allergies to mainstream products. With a Ph.D. from Stanford and over 50 U.S. patents, her journey spans climate tech, vaccine biotech, and now, skin health through the gut-brain-skin axis.
