Itching...Eczema...Driving me CRAZY!!

[Guest guest]

Well the heading sums it up! It's making me crazy it feels so good to

scratch but then it hurts! I don't like using my steriod cream. I've

tried camamile and lavender essential oils in the bath and on the ski

they don;t work, any ideas? Low cost as I'm not very well off

Trying to avoid the steriod cream as have MS and already on loads of

meds. Are there any foods I should avoid? I don't really eat dairy

very often, and limit my sat fat to 15g a day. I also avoid asparteme

(sp?) and don't drink much alcahol.

 

Thanks for your help! Laura xx

What kind of soap, or " soap " , do you use on your skin? I've read many

stories of people's eczema and other skin problems clearing up after

they stop using synthetic-detergent bars (this is not soap) and

started using real, natural lye soap. You can even make your own for

really cheap. I posted directions for how I make soap, on this list.

Laura,

 

Eczema has to be treated from the inside out.

 

The skin condition is a manifestation of an overloaded

liver and damaged intestinal tract.

 

Edgar Cayce had interesting protocols on it, and his

work has been used in the ultimate book on the topic,

" Healing Psoriasis " by Dr. John. A. Pagano.

 

You will find information on the book and inspiring

pictures at the website:

http://psoriasis-healing.com

 

Meanwhile, all the recommendations for other auto-immune

conditions apply, check the archives.

The skin is a reflection of your internal organs and how healthy or

unhealthy they are. The skin is kind of like a mirror of what's

happening in the deep layers of the body. If your internal

detoxification organs (intestine, liver, kidneys) are working properly

and doing their daily job of detoxification and they are not

overburdened (congested), then the skin will feel soft, and look

beautiful.

 

The skin is the largest elimination organ, and it'll take over the

burden of elimination when you are out of balance internally - when

your detoxification organs are congested and cannot do their job,

specifically the intestinal tract, liver, and kidneys. When the body

is out of balance, it's prone to a lot of physical problems, for

instance skin problems. People with healthy immune systems, good

digestion, and ample nutrition live relatively free of physical

discomfort.

 

When the liver is congested and cannot perform its eliminative

function, waste matter (toxins) is thrown into the blood stream.

Toxic blood must discharge its toxins, so nature uses vicarious

avenues of elimination or substitutes. The lungs, therefore, will

take over the task of eliminating some of the wastes that should have

gone through the kidneys, or the skin will take over for the liver.

If the bile poisons in the blood come out through the skin, we get the

various irritations of the skin, such as boils, carbuncles, acne, etc.

Thus, the skin is substituting for the liver, or a vicarious

elimination is occurring through the skin.

 

The best cure for your skin is to eat the best diet and get your detox

system working better by adding whole food supplements to support the

internal organs.

 

In terms of the diet, I recommend you eliminate dairy, all sugars

(including artificial), simple carbs, meat. Fill up on fresh, organic

if possible, brightly colored fruits and veggies, whole grains, seeds,

nuts, legumes.

 

By supporting the immune system, supporting the digestive tract, and

supplementing micronutrients and antioxidants, it will really benefit

people suffering from any type of physical discomfort, not just skin

problems. And if we don't improve the immune system, digestion, and

overall nutrition, even getting medical intervention won't achieve the

results you want, since doctors normally just treat the symptoms.

 

Keep in mind that the skin is the largest elimination organ and

whatever the body is trying to eliminate through the skin, you just

have to let it happen and not cover the symptoms with medications.

 

When you understand the relationship between nutrition and health, you

can understand that the miracle of healing lies in your own body, and

all that you have to do is feed yourself well and give yourself the

foundation of probiotics, enzymes, and micronutritents, and I'm sure

you'll see your skin becoming radiant and healthy looking.

 

As far as supplements go, first build your friendly bacteria

population in the intestinal tract to keep the immune system strong

with Acidophilus (http://tinyurl.com/24ajq) and Bifidus

(http://www.tinyurl.com/26rur)

 

Second, since there is no enzymatic activity in foods that are cooked,

zapped, or processed in any way, add enzymes to aid in digestion -

And third, add micronutrients to fill in the gaps in your nutrition -

http://tinyurl.com/g1iz and http://tinyurl.com/iw4k.

 

These supplements are based on real food and are natural and/or organic.

One thing that has made ALL the difference to me is

using soaps/lotions that are paraben-free. Prior to

switching, I would itch so bad during the night that I

would scratch in my sleep and wake up with huge raw

spots on my legs and arms. I switched and within a

week all of the itching and allergy-type reactions

disappeared.

Hamish,

 

Extremely dry skin like that can be caused by a lack of good essential fatty

acids.

yea...

 

a few years ago i was on omega 3 for arthritis and while they had some

minimal benefit my skin wasn't one of them.

 

for the most part i have a largely vegetarian diet with little fats in

general...mostly carb and veges....

 

there was a time where i tested an increase in fish in the diet and no

change there either...fish every night for 3 months...

 

i've just learnt to live with it as such...i scourer every second day

and this has kept me looking young apparently

 

are there any other fatty sources that may be worth a try?

try a squirt of alpha- kerri oil at the end of the shower- rub in whilst still

wet---pat dry- it will help rid you of the eczema-------------but the

problm is more involved-diet-nerves-stress etc pintarsol also is suppose to stop

itch but not sure with eczema as it may sting----but does help with

itch-------again-either can be used in the bath.-both found in pharmacy
