eczema treatment before and after

8 years of eczema treated in days with a few simple tricks

Millions of people struggle with how to treat eczema and finding something that works for them. Atopic dermatitis may not be completely curable, but there are tried and true methods of managing the inflammation and itch that you don’t even notice. Here is how a mother took her 9 year old daughter from crippling pain to living life to the fullest in just days.

 

“As the mother of a 9 year-old little girl that has severe (like 3rd degree burn severe) eczema, and has since she was 18 months old- I would like to thank you.

We have probably spent in total about $25,000 in doctor appointments, steroids, lotions, creams, bath soak, special soaps, testing, special diets, etc. If it exists, we have tried it!

The last doctor we saw actually suggested chemotherapy for her eczema.”

 

How This Mother Changed Her Daughter’s Life

We just hate to hear when a kid suffers from a skin condition. The last thing they should be worrying about is a chronic condition preventing them from experiencing life. So you can image how moving this success story was for us.

She has been repeatedly made fun of at school and has basically lived the last 8 years in pain. She woke up this morning smiling and couldn’t wait to show me her legs and how they aren’t blistered today!

“I write this with tears rolling down my face because I have never seen my baby girl sleep peacefully until now.”

These results sound miraculous, and they are. But success can be achieved by most people if they know a few simple tips to treating their damaged skin.

Let’s dive into the tips this mother took to change her daughter’s life.

 

5 Simple Tips For Treating Eczema, Psoriasis, Dermatitis and More

1. Stop Using Products With Hidden Chemicals Known To Damage Skin

chemicals that cause skin damage“The dermatologists all wanted us to use CeraVe or Cetaphil or Vanicream. All have alcohols and mineral oil and propylene glycol. I just don’t understand how a doctor would tell a parent with a young child to use something with dangerous chemicals in it on broken and bleeding skin. It makes me so angry.”

It makes us angry too!

It’s sad to say, but most skin care products are often loaded with chemicals. Some of them are scientifically proven to cause the same condition they claim to cure!

Some of the same ingredients are found in antifreeze, gasoline byproducts and car wash detergents. Not exactly something you want soaking into your skin.

“I took her off steroid treatment months ago because I don’t think they are healthy, especially for long-term use.”

Why do they use them? Chemicals are cheap. Organic, food-grade ingredients aren’t. While they can help alleviate the symptoms (pain and itch), they also weaken the skin over time. If you know what to look for, avoiding harmful chemicals is pretty easy.

2. Restore Your Skin’s Natural 5.5 PH 

balancing skin phBe sure to use soaps, shampoos and cleansers that are closer to the skin’s natural PH. Our skin is 5.5-6.5 PH, which is acidic. This acidic layer is your body’s first line of defense against infection and disease.

Most soaps, lotions, hair products, etc. are more around 8-10 PH, which is alkaline.

Using these improperly PH balanced products weakens the skin’s immune system and ability to heal. It also can toughen up your skin and prevent it from being as soft and healthy as you’d like.

“She used the cleanser yesterday for the first time and it was wonderful. It didn’t dry her out or make her itchy."

Balancing your skin’s PH can be done with a few quick tips.

 

3. Avoid Foods That Cause Inflammation 

foods bad for skinSome foods such as processed flour and fatty meats can cause inflammationwithin the body. Too much diary can clog skin pores due to high sugar content and also can have hormonal additives and high amounts of saturated fat.

Processed foods are often packed with salts and sugar which can also cause inflammation.If you have any type of skin condition you’re trying to treat (eczema, rosacea, acne, dermatitis), what you put in your body can have a big effect on your skin.

Make sure you are avoiding foods that could be causing skin damage.

 

4. Feed Yourself The Proper Nutrients To Boost Healing

foods good for your skinIt’s vital to have a healthy, balanced diet. Like a machine, your body can’t run properly without the right fuel. Whenever possible eat organic foods to avoid GMO’s, additives and harmful chemicals.

A few skin superfoods include blueberries, bananas, spinach, tomatoes, sweet potatoes and avocado. Vitamin C, magnesium and potassium are known histamine-reducing nutrients.

5. Nourish and Hydrate Your Skin

Like your body, your skin needs certain nutrients to function heal properly, including: vitamins, minerals, amino acids, fatty acids and enzymes.

A lot of products out there focus on one vitamin or ingredient. Vitamin C serums, Shea Butter Moisturizers, etc. They have their place, but the skin needs a whole lot more. Vitamins A, B, C, D and E all play their role in properly balanced skin.

A few ingredients for powerful DIY home treatments include manuka honey, oats, coconut oil, aloe vera, avocado and egg whites.
