In this episode we are exploring how the skin–gut–brain–biome axis drives chronic inflammatory skin conditions like acne, eczema, and rosacea with our guest Dr. Barbara Paldus , founder and CEO of Codex Labs and Decode.Me. Dr. Paldus’ clinical data shows that 50–60% of these skin issues are rooted in gut barrier dysfunction and microbiome imbalance, meaning topical treatments alone often aren’t enough.
Canadian-born of Czech parents and fluent in five languages with a Ph.D. from Stanford University (U.S.), Dr. Barbara Paldus holds over 50 US patents and is a serial entrepreneur, having started companies like Picarro, involved with greenhouse gas detection for climate change and Finesse Solutions, developing biotechnology equipment for vaccines or biologics. Codex Labs was conceived with dermatologists, naturopaths, and ethnobotanists to deliver affordable, clinically proven skin-gut-brain solutions that support the microbiomes and deliver healthy skin from the inside out, without sacrificing sustainability.
This episode challenges the conventional skincare model and offers a science-backed, integrated approach to healing skin from the inside out.
