Healthy Fats to Combat Eczema?
August 1, 2008 |
Those who suffer from eczema will understand the excruciating itch that accompanies the red, angry rashes. Most resort to oral steroids and steroid cream. If you are using steroids, do use sparingly. Why? Because even dermatologists will not encourage long term usage of steroids. One reason is steroids will “eat” your skin. So, some people, like me, look for alternative and holistic treatments or use natural herbs for relief. Recently, to my astonishment, I learned that having fats, healthy fats of course, can help to combat this skin disorder. Not only that, these healthy fats can be easily found in our kitchen - Avocados, Flax Oil, Hemp Oil, Coconut Oil and Extra Virgin oil. Surprise, surprise.
