Is Good Skin About Genes or Just Money? | Ft. Dr. Fazeela Abbasi

In this episode, we sit down with renowned dermatologist Dr. Fazeela Abbasi to explore one of the most debated questions today: Is glowing skin and transformations about genetics… or just money? From glow-ups and celebrity transformations to weight loss drugs, Ramadan dieting myths, and the truth about desi ghee vs canola oil this episode dives deep into beauty, health, privilege, and misinformation. We discuss whether rich people age better, why politicians suddenly focus on weight loss, the science behind gut health, insulin spikes, multivitamins, crash dieting, and the dangerous shortcuts people take for quick results. This is not just a skincare conversation it’s about discipline, lifestyle, faith, science, and self-awareness. #FazeelaAbbasi #HealthyFood #hdiwpodcast 00:00 Highlights 02:30 Dr. Fazeela’s Personal Journey 04:06 CelebrityTransformations & Public Perception 05:30 Filters, Image & Social Media Pressure 06:04 Why Politicians Care About Weight Loss 08:37 Quick Weightloss & Side Effects 12:41 Genetics, Willpower & Addiction 15:35 Multivitamins, H-Pylori & Gut Health 18:00 Everything Starts from the Gut 21:11 Beauty standards: Is Beauty About Money? 35:20 Faith, Willpower & Discipline 38:26 Ramadan Weight Gain vs Weight Loss 42:52 Sehri, Coffee & Insulin Spikes 45:19 What to Eat in Iftar & Sehri 47:57 Protein, Salad & Blood Sugar Control 50:46 Ghar Ka Khana vs Hotel Food – Myths 52:00 Desi Ghee, Canola Oil & BBQ Debate 59:20 Smoking, Vapes & Addiction Myths 01:00:50 Why Smoking Damages Your Body 01:04:13 Smog, Heavy Metals & Skin Damage 01:06:15 Are Viruses Increasing or Just Information? 01:08:25 Final Thoughts Don’t forget to subscribe and press the bell icon to catch on to some amazing conversations coming your way every week!
