ECZEMA CURES FROM “GOOD
BUGS”?
Q. Are there any
natural cures for eczema?
Ross E.
A. Skin disorders such as eczema are some of the
toughest to deal with either naturally or allopathically (standard
medicines). The primary reason being,
there can be so many variables causing the disorder. Eczema for instance can be caused by anything
from a genetic predisposition or all the way to a medication side effect…with
many variables in between. However there
are some well documented “natural” applications which may help and even cure
stubborn cases of eczema.
1. OMEGA 3, 6, and 9 CAPSULES: Eczema can be caused be a fatty acid
deficiency in your diet. Fatty acids can
reduce inflammation and relieve dryness.
There is evidence showing that these fatty acids may help heal you from
eczema.
2. PROBIOTICS:
AKA good bacteria (or good bugs) have been shown to beat eczema
outbreaks in infants. If your eczema is
food allergen based then adding this supplement may be the single most
important step to take.
3. OOLONG TEA:
The National Eczema Association posted a recent study the Shiga Univ. of
Medical Science showing that a 10 gm. tea bag dunked in boiling water for 5
min. (one to two cups daily) had a marked difference in 64% of the test
group. The tea bag, after steeping can
also be applied topically for even more effectiveness.
There are many more
lifestyle modifications such as, mixing coconut oil with pure Vitamin E and
applying topically to staying away from all dairy. Start with suggestions and above all…maintain
consistency. All of the above mentioned
products can be found at your local health food store or online retailer.
