Diets For Eczema – Curing Your Eczema Through the Food You Eat
July 22, 2009 by TreadmillsCenter
Eczema is an auto-immune response toward an allergy that becomes a red, itchy scaling of a skin eruption. Itching is the main symptom and it can be severe.
Eczema can occur and show up in different areas of the body, but the typical spots are behind the ears, face, elbows, back of knees, hands, trunk and neck.
There are all sorts of things that are the cause of eczema and some say that it is food that causes eczema.
Most people have no idea that food allergies affect the immune system drastically.
Foods that are known to cause eczema are
– Eggs (anything containing eggs)
– Nuts (peanuts, hazelnuts, cashews, almonds, pistachios)
– Wheat (rolls, pretzels, crackers, white bread, muffins etc)
– Dairy products (cheese, milk, cream cheese, whip cream etc)
– Avoid acid fruits such as glazed or canned fruits, currants, cranberries, and blueberries
– Seafood such as crab, lobsters, clams, scaly fish, and oysters
There are additives in the food that cause eczema too. They include sodium benzoate, sodium metabisuphite, tartrazine, and sodium glutamate.
They are finding that 2 common causes of eczema is Casein, which is in milk, and gluten, which is from wheat, barley, oats and rye.
A good way to determine which foods you are allergic to is by keeping a food diary of what you exactly eat each day and then start eliminating foods which you believe to cause an eczema outbreak. For example if you notice each day you drink a glass of milk with dinner, try drinking a different drink for a week to see if your eczema goes away.
Another way would be to have yourself tested to see if you have an allergy to foods. That would determine what foods you should and should not be eating. In the long run eating healthy will have many other side effects as well and your overall health will get better and no other long term illness is likely to become a problem.
