A well-balanced, plant-based diet is known to have anti-inflammatory, probiotic, and antioxidant properties, along with weight loss-promoting effects. Moreover, a plant-based diet has a low glycemic load, improving metabolic disease. Due to these qualities, plant-based diets may have beneficial effects on inflammatory skin conditions. In this review, we aim to discuss the possible mechanisms by which a plant-based diet reduces disease severity in psoriasis, acne, hidradenitis suppurativa, and atopic dermatitis. We also aim to clarify how a plant-based diet may influence skin healing and identify sources of vitamins, nutrients, fatty acids, and protein in a well-balanced, plant-based diet. We performed a literature search on PubMed\/MEDLINE databases with the following keywords: \u201cplant-based\u201d OR \u201cvegan\u201d OR \u201cvegetarian\u201d OR \u201cmeat\u201d OR \u201cdiet\u201d AND \u201cpsoriasis\u201d OR \u201chidradenitis suppurativa\u201d OR \u201cacne\u201d OR \u201catopic dermatitis\u201d OR \u201cskin healing\u201d OR \u201cdermatology\u201d. Our findings demonstrate that plant-based foods may improve inflammatory skin diseases by supporting the gut microbiome, exerting anti-inflammatory effects, providing barrier support, and improving glycemic control. With the proper education, there is an abundance of plant-based food sources or supplements that contain riboflavin, vitamin B12, vitamin A, omega-3 fatty acids, and protein, thereby ameliorating the risk of nutritional deficiencies. Thus, a plant-based diet may have therapeutic potential in dermatology. In spite of the evidence available, there is a paucity of clinical studies focusing specifically on plant-based diets and dermatologic conditions and further investigation is warranted.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/life14111439","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,7]],"date-time":"2024-11-07T04:22:56Z","timestamp":1730953376000},"page":"1439","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["The Influence of a Plant-Based Diet on Skin Health: Inflammatory Skin Diseases, Skin Healing, and Plant-Based Sources of Micro- and Macro-Nutrients"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6201-7401","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mildred","family":"Min","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Integrative Skin Science and Research, 1491 River Park Drive, Sacramento, CA 95815, USA"},{"name":"College of Medicine, California Northstate University, 9700 W Taron Dr, Elk Grove, CA 95757, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0007-2490-4484","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anurag","family":"Tarmaster","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Integrative Skin Science and Research, 1491 River Park Drive, Sacramento, CA 95815, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Apple","family":"Bodemer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health, Madison, WI 53715, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7205-8162","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Raja K.","family":"Sivamani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Integrative Skin Science and Research, 1491 River Park Drive, Sacramento, CA 95815, USA"},{"name":"College of Medicine, California Northstate University, 9700 W Taron Dr, Elk Grove, CA 95757, USA"},{"name":"Pacific Skin Institute, 1495 River Park Dr Suite 200, Sacramento, CA 95815, USA"},{"name":"Department of Dermatology, University of California-Davis, 3301 C St. #1400, Sacramento, CA 95816, USA"},{"name":"Integrative Research Institute, 4825 J Street, Suite 100, Sacramento, CA 95819, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,11,7]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"46","DOI":"10.1089\/wound.2012.0415","article-title":"Immunonutrition: Role in Wound Healing and Tissue Regeneration","volume":"3","author":"Chow","year":"2014","journal-title":"Adv.
