Healthy Cells, Healthy You with Janet Walker

When esthetician Albina Mastrangelo moved from sun-drenched southern Italy to frigid Canada, she never anticipated that the climate shock and cultural adjustment would trigger devastating cystic acne that no commercial or prescription product could fix. Her breaking point? The moment her boyfriend couldn't find a clear spot on her face to kiss.That heartbreaking moment launched Albina on a mission to create her own solution. Despite lacking formal chemistry training, she researched natural ingredients like chamomile, tea tree, and specialized compounds that fight inflammation. But formulating the recipe was just the beginning—she faced rejection from countless labs unwilling to produce small batches until a chance connection with a chemist who had fond memories of Italy opened the door to creating her first product.The transformation of Albina's skin became the foundation for what is now an extensive natural skincare line featuring innovative delivery systems that ensure potent ingredients penetrate deeply. What makes her approach special is her holistic philosophy that beautiful skin requires more than topical treatments. Throughout our conversation, she shares practical wisdom about sleep routines, stress management, and nutrition's profound impact on skin health—from omega-3 rich foods that reduce inflammation to antioxidant-packed berries that protect against premature aging.Whether you're struggling with problematic skin or simply want to maintain a healthy glow as you age, Albina's journey from personal crisis to skincare success offers both inspiration and practical solutions. Discover her natural approach to skincare that addresses both surface concerns and the deeper factors that influence your skin's appearance at www.albina.ca.Together, we'll build Healthy Cells, and a Healthy You!

Today, more than ever, so many of us are facing challenging times… physically, mentally, emotionally, and financially.  What’s one major result of all this chronic stress? It’s aging… on a CELLULAR LEVEL.  In fact, a number of studies have linked stress with shorter telomeres.  Telomeres are a chromosome component that have been associated with cellular aging. Damage to telomeres puts you at risk for heart disease, diabetes, cancer, pain, depression and more.OK, so chronic stress damaging cells is the bad news.  The GOOD news is that there IS HELP for cells in need of repair. You can stop, and even reverse the damage being done to your cells by today’s toxic environment. My name is Janet Walker and I’m the host of the Healthy Cells, Healthy You Podcast, brought to you by LifePharm, Incorporated.  For 16 years I’ve been a writer and producer for the award winning national PBS health information programs “American Health Journal” and “Innovations in Medicine”.  We’ve interviewed thousands of doctors, scientists and researchers on every topic related to health and medicine. In this podcast, the focus will be on the science, research and products developed by LifePharm, a company whose innovative cellular repair products are backed by extensive science, research and clinical studies. I’ll be talking to scientists, researchers, doctors and others who work in the fields of health and wellness, anti-aging, and cellular repair.  We’ll also talk to people just like you who have been on a journey to make lifestyle changes to repair their cells and improve their health and well-being. And we’ll look at the products that will help promote cellular health, heart health, immune health, digestive health, and better sleep, better skin and weight management.Listen to the Healthy Cells, Healthy You Podcast with me, your host, Janet Walker, on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts, with our first episode airing soon.
