Diseases, including eczema, are best dealt with by preventing them from happening. But let's say eczema is already present, medications prove helpful for treatment, and yes - even supplements. Research suggests that the human body does not have sufficient amounts of fatty acids to combat eczema. Therefore, supplements can be important for treatment. When these supplements are applied topically, they work from the outside and are then absorbed by the body. Thus, these bring something inside that fights the skin disorder. These supplements can contain blackcurrant seed oil, evening primrose oil and starflower oil. Studies show supplements with these ingredients reduce the number of flare ups and in some cases, these reduce severity and duration. Taking these regularly can reduce dryness, inflammation, itching and scaliness, which are common symptoms of eczema. Studies also show that fish oil is very useful for treating eczema, as well as other health problems. The most helpful ingredient is Gamma-linolenic acid or GLA which is an omega 6 fatty acid. While researchers remain inconclusive, it is certain that GLA can reduce severity of the symptoms. Certain foods trigger eczema. To prevent this from happening repeatedly, a careful diet needs to be followed. Vitamin B supplements can also be helpful. Certain herbs are also useful for eczema treatment, such as liquorice root and witch hazel. Liquorice root contains glycyrrhizinic acid, and witch hazel contains phosphatidylcholine, both of which help reduce symptoms. Liquorice root may be taken internally or applied topically whereas witch hazel can only be applied to the skin. Furthermore, the following herbs are good substitutes: burdock root, German chamomile, golden rod, red clover, roman chamomile and stinging nettle. Babies are at risk of eczema. Especially in this case, probiotics can treat the problem. While good bacteria are in the body, infants do not have sufficient amounts of these yet, which is why mothers are encouraged to breastfeed. Since eczema can also happen later in life in this case, the best supplement is found in a bottle of Yakult, which has the Lactobacillus casei Shirota strain. Applying and swallowing supplements are not the only ways to treat eczema. Bathing oneself in sulfur is helpful because it contains keratin, which is a protein that strengthens hair, nails and skin. However, this is not recommended for children. There are many ways to get eczema treatment. But a medical consultation with your doctor should be a priority to determine the extent of your condition. After diagnosis, proper treatment can be administered because even though it may not be cured, its severity can be lessened and flare ups can be prevented.
