Hi Stacy, I am in agreement with you. Do you have any ideas or recommendations on detoxing a 22 month old girl? Her eczema is bad on her elbows, legs, and face. It flares up with berries, tomatoes, and oranges, and especially when she has tantrums (strees-induced). I have her transitioning to GF and DF this week (which she doesn’t like), but I don’t know how to “detox” her so young otherwise. It’s so hard watching her deal with this. Any helps are appreciated!

Also, I have had psoriasis all my life. One year it really flared up and I was soooo itchy. I read the book, “How to heal Psoriasis Naturally” by John Pagano. I learned that it is from inside not outside that you need to heal. I now avoid many foods like nightshade plants (I miss tomato sauce) and other remedies that have really helped me. I have made Wellness Momma’s whipped butter recipes and I love them on my skin. While not healing them, they feel so much better.

Thank you

What is the consistency of it? And how do you use it?
Thank you

” I have tried coconut oil topically but it usually makes my hand blister and itch even worse. ”

Either you are allergic to C.O. or you bought the kind that is solvent extracted. You need to look for cold-pressed or water extracted C.O.

Omg glad you told of getting relief with coffee enemas!

Great!

Growing up I had eczema. My aunt was a old fashioned nurse. When living with her I remember I was given enemas. I remember after getting an enema they gave great relief from eczema and other ills.
Also helped with reducing a fever and the constipated child.
From what I have learned, not giving medical advice, is eczema comes from within. Removing toxins is important.

Read in book prescription for nutritional healing and read on page optimalhealthnetwork.com

The enema is recommended in both for eczema.

In my late 60s now. With diet changes, getting colonics, enemas (including the coffee enema – which is a good liver detox)often, I had no issues with eczema in years.

Recently when staying with a friend I noticed a enema bulb sitting out n her bathroom. It was airing out on the side of her tub.
I asked about it. We talk about anything. Especially health and natural healing. And was curious who received an enema and why it was given.

She told me she gave her 8 yo b an enema the day before I arrived. He has bouts of eczema. I told her I got the same remedy.

I was surprised she knew of the enema as a home remedy and gave enemas in her home! She told me she also learned the enema as a very good home remedy to give for eczema.

Lanolin from Medela a few times a day worked better than hydrocortisone on infant cheeks!

Watch “the root cause” on Netflix , one of the people on there is a functional medicine dr, he is actually here in Clearwater Florida, I can’t remember his name.

Someone mentioned this above but calendula oil is the most helpful for me and my severe eczema.

Hi Tracy,
A functional medicine doctor is a health care provider (but not always a doctor) that went through extra training to learn how to diagnose the root cause of a health issue and to treat it as holistically as possible. You can a functional medicine specialist near you at:

You said eczema honey, but is that a name of the product?? You gave no other info on it so we are confused as to what it is ….Thanks.

Victoria: the b vitamins are probably helping because b6 helps with histamine reactions. Eczema is an inflammatory condition sometimes caused by the release of histamine in your body due to an allergy. People who cant properly mop up histamine in their system usually suffer from itchy, allergic type rashes on their skin. Look up low histamine foods, that might further help you. Some examples of high histamine foods are alcohol, sauerkraut and fermented foods in general.

I’ve written about gluten quite a bit already: https://wellnessmama.com/13274/gluten-food-group/

Once seen as an exotic ingredients, raw, organic coconut oil is now widely available in supermarkets and health food shops.

Compared to other oils, coconut oil has the ability to easily penetrate the skin which keeps your skin soft and smooth. Through this, there will be a reduction in the inflammation of your skin. It will also enhance the healing of wounds, blisters, and rashes.

Coconut oil has many uses in the treatment of eczema. These include:

Reduces inflammation and redness of the skin;
Enhances the tissue healing and repair process;
Strengthens and improves the function of the immune system;
Aids the effective utilization of essential fatty acids and gives protection from oxidation;
Plays an essential role of maintaining the natural chemical balance of the skin;
Instrumental in softening the skin and helping to relieve from flaking and dryness;
Gives protection to the skin from the damaging effects of ultraviolet rays;
Facilitates digestion and absorption of nutrients such as vitamins, mineral, and amino acids.

Other great oils for eczema include Rosehip seed oil, avocado oil and black seed oil.

Just stumbled across this site. Hoping to get some advice. About 3 months ago I started itching a small portion of my scalp on the back. It stated to puss and be stiff and painful. 3 months later and patch testing from my dermatologist and nothing came up. It’s driving me crazy. She did give me a topical of clorbetexol to still use and I don’t want to. She isn’t sure what’s going on. Help!
