Abstract in brief

  • The text highlights the historical theory by dermatologists Stokes and Pillsbury from over 70 years ago, suggesting that emotional states can alter gut bacteria, increase intestinal permeability, and contribute to skin conditions like acne through systemic inflammation.
  • Recent research has validated many parts of this "gut-brain-skin" connection, showing that the gut microbiome and probiotics can impact inflammation, oxidative stress, mood, and factors related to acne.
  • The article emphasizes that understanding the role of gut health and diet in acne may lead to new treatment approaches and insights into how emotional health and gut microbiota influence skin conditions.
