Healthy Fat and Probiotic Supplementation
For eczema and atopic dermatitis, the GAPS Diet along with a cod liver oil and probiotic supplement can prove extremely helpful. In addition, an oil mixture containing multiple seed oils such as evening primrose oil, coconut oil and flax seed oil can prove effective for eczema treatment. The brand I recommend is YES Essential Fatty Acid Blend. The dosage is 2 capsules, 2 times per day
Dermrash Cream
An effective, holistic alternative to drug based steroid cream like hydrocortisone is Dermrash from Dr. Kang Formulas. The primary ingredient of Dermrash is Sophora, an herb commonly used in Chinese medicine to counteract allergies. This is accomplished by stabilizing the mast cells, which produce histamine in the body. I have seen severe cases of eczema clear up with this sole remedy when this cream is applied to affected skin.
Consumption of Sea Vegetables
Detoxification is important for resolution of eczema problems. Sea vegetables are helpful to this end as they bind with heavy metals and other toxins and promote their excretion through bowel movements. A good choice that is available in capsule form is the brand Seagreens. A safe and effective dosage for treatment of eczema from mild to severe is 1-2 capsules, 2 times per day.
Seaweed Baths
Seaweed baths soothe and nourish the skin and provide another avenue for detoxification via the body’s largest organ. In particular, Aalgo baths are helpful as an eczema treatment as they exfoliate the skin which allows it to breathe and regenerate healthy skin tissue more quickly.
