Event Description

Nutritional therapy plays an important role in the management of inflammatory skin disorders, however, in the United Kingdom, over 90% of dermatologists feel they need additional nutrition training and access to specialist support from nutrition professionals.

This seminar series provides an update and review of the nutritional malmanagement of some of the most encountered clinical challenges; acne, acne inversa (hidradenitis suppurativa), eczema (atopic dermatitis), and psoriasis.
