What could be causing chronic dry flaky skin and lips?
-
I've been dealing with this chronic dry, flaky skin on my face, scalp, and now lips. I thought it was sebderm, but I don't think it is as I've tried a bunch of things to help, like MCT oil, but it doesn't really help.
I've noticed a couple of things that I know trigger it, or make it worse: legumes, bananas, raisins, OJ, lots of salt, lots of protein, carrots and spinach. Legumes seem to be the worst culprit.
Not sure what could be causing this. I'm also dealing with PCOS-like symptoms as a dude(hair loss, bacne, excessive body hair)

@nicemushroom17 Also, I've noticed high-fat foods make my PCOS-like symptoms quite a bit worse. For example, I was eating a fair amount of clean vanilla ice cream last week, and I noticed my hair was noticeably thinner and acne was worse.
It's a damn shame.

I don’t know the cause but I’ve had crazy dandruff my whole adult life. I started intuitively putting Pregnenalone by idealabs on my scalp just to use up the product that I thought I would never buy again. (Because I didn’t feel anything from it.) But I don’t like wasting money so I just started putting it where my hair parts. Everyday. And my wife actually noticed first that my dandruff cleared up at least 95%. Remarkable!
Stressnon. FYI I don’t work for idealabs!
