Did you know that exposing your skin to certain plant compounds called furocoumarins (which are psoralen isomers), like lime, lemon, celery, carrots, & parsnip, and then exposing your skin to sunlight, can cause severe reactions like phytophotodermatitis? 

They’re usually irregularly shaped rash, but patches can also appear in the form of drips and streak marks too! 

You'll also learn what Berloque dermatitis is, and how this can affect people who use Bergamot oil, found in fragrances or aromatherapy oils. 

In this episode, I shared about:

  • Plants & fruits commonly associated with phytophotodermatitis
  • Case studies of patients who experienced this.
  • How to prevent it
  • How to treat it
  • How long the lesions last for
  • Why it's often misdiagnosed as other skin conditions including fungal infection, allergic contact dermatitis, jellyfish stings, poison ivy, hives, shingles, and even child abuse! (Yes - there’s research papers written about this, which I shared in this episode).
