Guest guest Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 Natural Eczema Treatments Eczema (also known as atopic dermatitis) is an allergic skin condition that produces itchy, thickened, red areas on various parts of the body. It tends to come and go and often travels with other allergic conditions such as asthma. There are natural ways to treat eczema; if you have this condition consider trying the following: * Eliminate milk and all milk products from the diet. * Take 500 mg of black currant oil twice a day (children under 12 should get half that dose.) This takes six to eight weeks to produce the desired effect. * Try visualization or hypnotherapy to take advantage of the mind/body connection in allergic skin disorders. * Try hot spring therapy. In Japan, doctors have achieved spectacular success with severe eczema with this method (combined with individual and group counseling). * Try aloe vera gel and calendula lotion or cream on irritated skin. -- Diana Gonzalez Nothing wastes more energy than worrying - the longer a problem is carried, the heavier it gets. Don't take things too seriously - live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. -Unknown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
