Nutrition & dermonutrition in Montpellier · Skin, hair, vitality
Diet is the first anti-ageing tool. Dr. Marianne Cayatte integrates nutrition, micronutrition and dermonutrition into a global approach: bright skin, solid hair, energy recovered.
Skin, hair and vitality begin in the plate
Skin is the mirror of nutritional status. A zinc deficiency favours acne, an omega-3 deficiency weakens the skin barrier, a lack of iron and ferritin causes hair loss. These imbalances are invisible to the standard assessment — and yet they can be corrected.
Dr. Marianne Cayatte addresses nutrition in a comprehensive way: macronutrients, micronutrients, chrono-nutrition, microbiota and dermonutrition. The goal is not a restrictive diet, but understand what your body actually uses and give it what it needs.
Essential nutrients for skin, hair and nails
Skin and hair are the first organs to reflect nutritional status. These imbalances are invisible to the standard balance—although they are often corrected by feeding and targeted supplementation.
- Antioxidants (C & E vitamins): fight free radicals and protect collagen. Sources: citrus fruit, nuts, green vegetables, wheat germ oil.
- Zinc: regulates the production of sebum, promotes healing and prevents hair loss. Sources: seafood, squash seeds, legumes.
- Biotin (B8): essential for hair and nail growth. Sources: eggs, liver, green vegetables. Often prescribed in addition.
- Iron & Ferritine: Deficiency is the first cause of hair loss in women. Sources: red meat, lentils, spinach.
- Proteins & amino acids: collagen and keratin bricks. Insufficiency = early wrinkles, brittle nails, fragile hair.
- Hydration: essential for the tonicity of the skin and the effectiveness of all micronutrients. Target: 1.5 to 2 L per day.
Omega-3: the lipid barrier of the skin
Omega-3 EPA and DHA maintain the cutaneous lipid barrier, reduce systemic inflammation and prevent skin dryness. A deficit quickly translates into dull, sensitive and reactive skin.
The best food sources are fatty fish: sardines, mackerel, herring, anchovies — the only high quality animal sources of diomega-3. In addition: nuts, flax seeds, rapeseed oil.
Omega-3 and aesthetic treatments
Injected hyaluronic acid degrades less rapidly in a well hydrated body rich in essential fatty acids. Complementation in omega-3 potentiates the results of the practice's care.
The Trinity of Dermonutrition
Three food families form the basis of a diet that promotes the beauty of skin, hair and nails.
Fruit
Rich in antioxidants, vitamins A, C, E and polyphenols. These micronutrients directly contribute to the biochemical mechanisms of skin regeneration and protect cells from oxidative stress.
Fatty fish
Sardines, mackerel, herring, anchovies: only long-chain (EPA/DHA) animal sources of high bioavailability. Essential for skin, hair and reduction of inflammation.
Green vegetables and legumes
Rich in fiber and vitamins B (B1 to B12), essential for the metabolism of hair, nails, skin, sleep and mood. Prepare them with fresh spices and cold-pressed vegetable oils.
chrono-nutrition: eating at the right time
The body needs vary according to the hours of the day. In the morning, all cells demand quality nutrients to start their work. That's why breakfast is still fundamental.
In the evening, the organism prepares for rest and is predisposed to store rather than digest. A hearty dinner promotes weight gain and disrupts the quality of sleep.
This simple logic, validated by chronobiology, guides Dr.Cayatte's nutritional protocols for each patient.
Stress, optimal weight and well-being through diet
Chronic stress raises cortisol, promotes inflammation and accelerates skin aging. Some foods act directly on this mechanism: saffron, magnesium (black chocolate, green vegetables), adaptogens.
Maintaining optimal weight requires less restriction than rebalancing: understand what your body actually uses, and give it what it needs in adequate quantity and timing.
- Anti-inflammatory foods: turmeric, berries, fatty fish, olive oil
- Soft physical activity: yoga, walking, conscious breathing
- Living food: focus on unprocessed, seasonal foods
- Sleep and chrono-nutrition: Synchronize meals and circadian rhythm
Dr. Cayatte's holistic approach: biochemistry and custom feeding
Dr. Marianne Cayatte addresses nutrition in a comprehensive way, considering the psychological, cultural, environmental and biochemical dimensions of each patient's food choices.
Industrial food biochemistry structurally alters food molecules, causing many skin intolerances and allergies. Understanding these mechanisms allows informed choices to be made.
Read food labels
Applications of scanning (Yuka, Open Food Facts) enable the identification of harmful dyes and additives present in processed products. Dr.Cayatte recommends them to his patients as part of nutritional monitoring.
Your personalized food protocol
After a thorough interrogation and clinical and biological assessment, Dr. Marianne Cayatte establishes a tailor-made dietary protocol adapted to your lifestyle, goals and individual biology.
