My #1 nutrition tip: Eat quality, nutrient-dense, whole, real foods

That's it. Really.⁠ ⁠Your health depends on it!

Your body runs off nutrients from the foods you eat. They are fuel. When that fuel is missing, imbalances develop, and symptoms and health problems follow.

Everything your body does requires fuel, including building and repairing healthy skin.

Any diet that excludes foods, food groups, and food categories puts you at risk. Your elimination diet and even your 'healthy' diet can be to blame.

Taking elimination diets and 'healthy' too far can lead to fear of food, disordered eating habits, eating disorders, and a lack of fuel that the body needs. It also doesn’t solve the root cause of your rashes and other chronic skin problems.

Nutrients from foods you eat even build neurotransmitters, which dictate your mood and play a role in mental health. Nutrient insufficiency and deficiency can contribute to depression, anxiety, behavioral problems in children (ASD and ADD/ADHD), and more. ⁠ ⁠

A diet of whole, real foods means eating foods in their natural form. To shop for whole, real foods, go around the perimeter of the store. Avoid aisles, where packaged products are found.⁠ ⁠

When possible, opt for quality animal foods (organic, grass-fed, pastured, free-range, and wild-caught). Conventional animal products are inflammatory and high in omega-6 fats. Quality animal foods are rich in omega-3 anti-inflammatory fats.⁠ ⁠

Conventional seed oils are also high in omega-6 fats. Avoid rice bran, safflower, sunflower, corn, canola, cottonseed, soybean, and grapeseed oils, especially for cooking at high temperatures. Better cooking oils/oils, in general, are avocado oil, extra virgin olive oil, coconut oil, and butter and ghee.

 

Calories matter

An important component of a healing journey, and certainly when you are struggling with chronic skin conditions, is getting enough fuel. There is a higher metabolic need for fuel (you need more calories) when the body is healing. This isn’t a time for dieting or calorie restrictions. Elimination diets and ‘healthy’ diets can be problematic here too.

All calories are not created equal. Some provide value and nourish the body, while the same number of calories from the “wrong” sources depletes the body even further.

Calories from quality, nutrient-dense, whole, real foods help your body heal. They also maintain blood sugar levels, improve mood, and minimize cravings because they teach your brain to tell your stomach that you're full.

Calories from the “wrong” sources like processed foods and junk foods do the opposite. They can prevent proper healing, cause hormone imbalances, raise blood sugar levels, and cause you to overeat.

Protein - the Key to Healing Your Child’s Skin: Are They Getting Enough?

Protein: The Building Blocks of Your Body

Amino acids, which come from the proteins you eat, are the essential building blocks for every structure in your body—think cells, tissues, organs, hormones, neurotransmitters, bones, skin, and even your DNA and genes. These critical molecules are also vital for liver detoxification, helping your body eliminate harmful substances.

When you eat protein-rich foods, your body breaks them down into amino acids during digestion. These amino acids are then absorbed and used for various functions throughout the body. There are nine essential amino acids that your body can’t produce on its own, meaning you have to get them from the food you eat.

Your body can synthesize non-essential amino acids from essential ones, but under stress—whether it’s physical, emotional, or chemical—some of these non-essential amino acids become conditionally essential. This means your body requires you to get these from your diet, as it can’t produce enough under stress.

For anyone struggling with skin rashes, gut issues, or chronic health problems, your body is under a constant state of stress. In these situations, getting enough essential and conditionally essential amino acids from your food is crucial for both repair and maintaining optimal body function.

Protein Sources: Animal vs. Plant-Based

Animal-based foods like chicken, beef, fish, and eggs are considered complete proteins because they contain all essential and conditionally essential amino acids. They’re also more easily digestible and offer more protein per serving compared to plant proteins.

Plant and Animal Protein Sources: How Do They Compare? Fullscript

Plant and Animal Protein Sources: How Do They Compare? Fullscript

Most plant-based proteins, however, are incomplete, meaning they lack one or more of the essential amino acids. For those on a plant-based diet, it’s important to consume a variety of protein sources to ensure you’re getting the full spectrum of amino acids. Additionally, you may need to consume more plant-based protein to match the quality and quantity of animal-based protein.

For anyone focused on plant-based eating, careful planning and combining of protein sources (like rice and beans) can help meet your amino acid needs effectively.

Why Protein is Crucial for Healing Your Child’s Skin

One of the most common mistakes parents make when trying to heal their child’s skin is not giving them enough protein. Protein plays an essential role in building and repairing all the tissues in your child’s body, including their skin. And because protein isn’t stored in the body like fats or carbs, your child needs to consume it daily—especially when they’re on a healing journey.

Children Need More Protein Than Adults

Children need more protein per pound of body weight than adults because they are growing and developing. When you add the need for healing on top of that, their protein needs increase even more. Protein is the foundation for building cells, tissues, and skin—so ensuring your child gets enough is key.

Why the Standard Guidelines Fall Short

Guidelines you see online or hear from conventional practitioners about how much protein your child needs often focus on preventing deficiency, not optimizing health and healing. For example:

  • At 6 months old, the standard recommendation is about 1.12g of protein per kg of body weight each day.

  • By 10 years old, the recommendation drops to about 0.74g per kg.

But for optimal growth, health, and skin healing, your child likely needs at least 1.5 - 2g per kg of body weight daily. That’s significantly more than the general guidelines suggest!

To find out exactly how much protein your child needs, divide their weight (in pounds) by 2.2, then multiply that number by 1.5 (or 2 for a higher intake). This will give you the minimum grams of protein they should consume daily.

Tracking Your Child’s Protein Intake

Want to know if your child is getting enough protein from their diet? Use a nutrition tracking app like Cronometer. It’s free, easy to set up, and will help you see how much protein your child is eating. This way, you can adjust their meals as needed to ensure they’re getting the right amount.

Protein Serving Sizes by Age

A helpful way to make sure your child is getting enough protein is to include a serving of complete, quality protein at every meal. Here’s a quick guide based on your child’s age:

  • Ages 1-3: 1 ounce of meat, fish, or chicken per serving (3 servings per day)

  • Ages 4-6: 1 ounce meat, fish, or chicken, or 1 egg (3 servings per day)

  • Ages 7-10: 2-3 ounces of meat, fish, or chicken per serving (3 servings per day)

For older kids and adults, a good rule of thumb is to eat a serving about the size of your palm for meat, or a fist-sized portion for beans and legumes.

Why Combining Animal and Plant Proteins Matters

Both animal and plant proteins have their benefits, but animal proteins like chicken, beef, and fish are complete proteins, meaning they contain all essential amino acids. Most plant proteins, on the other hand, are incomplete. If your child follows a plant-based diet, they may need to eat a wider variety of protein sources to ensure they get all the essential amino acids.

Choose Quality Proteins

When it comes to animal proteins, prioritize quality over quantity. Look for organic, grass-fed, pasture-raised, and wild-caught options when possible, as they offer higher nutrient content and are more sustainable for long-term health.

Animal-Based Protein Ideas

  1. Chicken (grilled, baked, or in soups)

  2. Turkey (slices, ground, or in burgers)

  3. Eggs (scrambled, boiled, or in omelets)

  4. Fish (salmon, cod, tuna)

  5. Lean beef (meatballs, ground beef in tacos or pasta)

  6. Dairy products

    • Greek yogurt (plain or with fruit)

    • Cottage cheese (can be paired with fruits or honey)

    • Cheese (slices, cubes, or grated)

    • Milk

      • Once your child is eating solids, milk should not be viewed as a source of complete nutrition and the goal should be to wean from it. While yogurt, cottage cheese and cheese in moderation can be part of a healthy diet, no one needs to drink cow’s milk, because it can be particularly inflammatory and even addictive. Instead try fortified plant-based milks like hemp, pea, oat, almond, rice, coconut, and cashew milks as options. You can also try goat, sheep, or even camel milk as alternatives.

Plant-Based Protein

  1. Beans (black beans, kidney beans, chickpeas)

  2. Lentils (in soups, stews, or salads)

  3. Quinoa (as a side dish or in salads)

  4. Peanut butter, almond butter, other nut and seed butters (spread on toast or in smoothies)

  5. Tofu (stir-fried or in soups)

  6. Tempeh (sautéed or grilled)

  7. Edamame (steamed as a snack)

  8. Chia seeds (in smoothies, yogurt, or oatmeal)

  9. Hummus (with veggies or crackers)

These foods provide both complete and complementary proteins, making them great options for growing kids who are on healing journeys.

Skin Smoothie Recipe

A great way to get in extra protein is with a high quality protein powder. The one I recommend is Designs for Health PurePaleo Protein Powder. It's great to add to smoothies, cereals, and if you get the unflavored version, you can literally put it in anything. Get my favorite skin smoothie recipe (click the image).

The reason for this one in particular is because it's made from hydrolyzed beef (might sound weird, but I promise it's not) and that means it's super easy to digest. Basically it just gets absorbed so that your child's body gets an immediate, high quality boost of this powerhouse nutrient to fuel optimal growth and development, and skin healing.

Professional-Grade Supplement Dispensary

You can get Designs for Health PurePaleo Protein Powder from my professional-grade supplement dispensary, Fullscript. Just sign up for a free account, and search for the product (click the image).

Final Thoughts

Protein is the foundation for your child’s skin health, growth, and healing. Ensuring they get enough high-quality protein every day will help their body repair tissues, stay strong, and heal more effectively.

Tips For Navigating The Supermarket

My number 1 nutrition tip is to eat quality, nutrient dense, whole, real foods.

If you’ve checked out my Nutrition Recommendations, you’ll understand why! If you haven’t, definitely check them out.

A diet of whole, real foods means eating foods that are in their real form.

To shop for whole, real foods, go around the perimeter of the store, and avoid isles where packaged products are found.⁠ ⁠

Start in the produce section and fill up your shopping cart with a variety of seasonal fruits and vegetables and select a variety of bright colors. Aim to try at least one new ‘fun’ fruit or vegetable per week.

Buy your meats at the butcher counter and buy organic/grass-fed/pastured/free-range products when possible. These types of animal products have a healthier fat and overall nutrient profile than their processed [grain fed] counterparts.

If dairy is included in your diet, purchase full fat dairy. Low-fat and nonfat versions have sugars and other substances added to them in order to improve the taste and texture of these processed foods, so avoid them.

When it comes to condiments, read the labels. For oils, look for organic, and first cold pressed products. Avoid condiments that contain added sugars and high fructose corn syrup, and even agave (many salad dressings are loaded with extra sugars like this).

Because you are buying whole, real foods, many of them will not come in labeled packages, and this is good!

When purchasing foods that have labels, if you can’t pronounce an ingredient, don’t buy it. Also, the fewer listed ingredients the better (5 or less is best). Remember that whole, real foods don’t have ingredients because they are ingredients!

Beware of packaged foods disguised as healthy. As an example, just because it says gluten free on the box, doesn’t mean it’s a health food!

Healthy snacks fuel your engine. Macronutrients (carbohydrates, fat, and protein) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) give your body what it needs so it can do everything it’s supposed to (develop, grow, build, repair, function, and thrive).

Some of my favorite snacks:

  1. Hard-boiled eggs - protein, healthy fat (if sensitive to chicken eggs, duck eggs might be an option)

  2. Seeds and nuts - protein, healthy fat, fiber, a wide range of vitamins, minerals, and other phytonutrients

  3. Dried fruit - carbohydrates, fiber, high in sugar so go lightly

  4. Sliced avocado - healthy fat, fiber, a wide range of vitamins, minerals, and other phytonutrients

  5. Fresh fruit and vegetables - carbohydrates, fiber, a wide range of vitamins, minerals, and other phytonutrients

    • Cut up and dip in nut or seed butters, guacamole, and/or hummus for an extra nutrient boost

  6. Vegetable chips/kale chips/beet chips

  7. Nut and seed crackers

  8. Roasted chickpeas, or other beans - protein, carbohydrates, fiber, a wide range of vitamins, and minerals

    • Drain canned chickpeas or other beans, place on a cookie sheet, add favorite seasonings, bake until crisp

  9. Natural beef, salmon, or turkey jerky

    • Look for as few ingredients as possible

  10. Lara Bars, Rx Bars or Epic Bars

  11. Yogurt - protein, healthy fat (go for unsweetened, full-fat versions), probiotics

  12. Fruit and nut/seed balls

    • Dried fruit (dates, raisins, prunes, apricots, etc.), nuts/seeds (sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, almonds, walnuts, etc.), add to a food processor and mix/blend until sticky, roll into balls, can roll in raw cacao powder (extra antioxidants, and minerals) if desired, keep refrigerated

  13. Cooked chicken thighs or cooked chicken breasts, meatballs, or turkey balls, keep them ready in the fridge to grab on the go or in a pinch when you need a protein-rich snack

  14. Dark chocolate, 70% or higher, about 1 oz serving – antioxidants, minerals

  15. Power smoothie, blend well

    • Protein powder - 1 - 2 scoops/servings

    • Nuts, seeds, nut/seed butters - 1/4 cup nuts/seeds, 1-2 Tbsp nut/seed butters

    • Kale, spinach, carrots, beets, broccoli, cauliflower, other vegetables - 1-2 cups

    • Blueberries, other berries, banana, apple, other fruit (go lighter on fruits, they add sugar, berries are lower in sugar) - 1 piece of fruit, 1/2 cup berries

    • Water or milk of choice - 1/2 - 1 cup (more liquid will thin out the smoothie)

    • Raw cacao powder, turmeric, cinnamon, other spices - anti-inflammatory and antioxidant nutrients - 1 tsp

    • Avocado or avocado oil, olive oil, coconut oil, butter, ghee, or coconut cream - healthy fat - 1-2 Tbsp

    • Ice - your call ;)

  16. 'Ice cream' the JCB Nutrition way

  17. Chocolate (Avocado, Sweet Potato, Or Banana) Pudding Or Frosting

Pro Tips:

  • Always take into account your unique tolerances.

  • Eating healthy sources of protein and fat throughout the day helps balance blood sugar, which improves mood and energy. It also keeps you full longer.

  • Aim for a source of protein and fat with each meal too!
