Hey guys welcome back to skincare anarchy. This is an episode in the wonderful master class with Codex Labs.

Last time we discussed the microbiome, gut health, probiotic treatments for acne

acne and modulating hormones for female hormonal acne.

And this time, once again, we have Dr. Barbara Palvis

with us.

So welcome back.

Barb, I'm so excited to host you again.

Thank you, Ekta. It's so great to be you again. Thank you, Echta.

So great to be back here.

Yeah, I want to know.

So what's new at Codex?

Since the last time we spoke.

So we've still been focusing on the skin-gup

brain microbiome axes and how they pertain to skin problems, but we've just launched our first microbiome shifting live probiotic bioseurum.

This is a product for professionals. We also have some really exciting clinical

results to share about the serum, especially when you use it together with our probiotic supplement.

So, you know, down the road we definitely want to extend this concept to other skin conditions. So this is just the beginning, but it's really neat to have basically an external and an internal probiotic.

That's so cool. I love that. that and just to recap if you don't mind can we dive a little bit

into the microbiome again for our listeners and if you could remind us Barb know, what is the microbiome and just the fundamentals?

Sure. So in a nutshell, the microbiome is a complex community that lives on our bodies and in our

bodies it comprises bacteria, fungi,

Arcaya, viruses, yeast, molds, and the numbers are vast.
