172: Why Use Zinc Cream For Skin Rashes

from The Healthy Skin Show · host Jennifer Fugo, MS, CNS, Skin Rash Expert

Can zinc applied to your skin help skin rashes? As you heard in episode #169, zinc is REALLY important for your skin! People mostly focus on consuming zinc in their diet as well as getting additional zinc through supplementation. This is important because your body doesn’t make zinc… it must be consumed in some way so that your body has ample access to it. But one often overlooked point in this conversation is the impact that zinc used topically can have on your skin. Not just for general health, but also to potentially help reduce itchiness + inflammation too! And this is why I created the Z+ Rebuilder skin cream… because of how helpful zinc can be. So let’s talk about how topical zinc can be helpful and the different ways you can add it to your protocol! In this episode: Benefits of zinc applied topically to your skin Where zinc is stored in skin tissue How potent is topical zinc to sun exposure? Can zinc help with itchy, inflamed skin? Understanding dry skin + its connection to zinc How to use zinc topically Quotes: Zinc is found in the epidermis at a concentration of five times more than in deeper skin layers.
