Understand the nutrition science behind acne

Hi, my name is Karina Almanza, MS, RDN, CDCES, I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist with a passion for helping regulate hormone balance, lower inflammation in the body and best manage acne through lifestyle and nutrition.

My goal is to help you determine the nutrition that best aligns with your values, interests, while also aiding you with the needs your body is trying to communicate with you.

Together we will start the path necessary toward clear skin, a better understanding of your body’s needs and develop the skills necessary for self-love and confidence!

Consultation Services

I work with clients through telehealth to help them:

  • Compassionately understand their relationship and history with food

  • Identify any food or lifestyle triggers prompting acne flare-ups

  • Have open and safe conversations about goals and values

  • Tailor science-based nutrition recommendations to best align with values and goals expressed by client

As someone who has dealt with hormonal cystic acne, I understand how frustrating it can be to not understand the needs your skin is trying to express with you.

For this reason, I have made it my mission to better understand the role nutrition and lifestyle plays on hormonal balance and skin health.
