Hi, I have had SD on and off since my teens, I am 43 now. I recently got fed up with it, quit sugar, flour, grains, dairy, started taking supplements, and so on, about 2 weeks ago. Its going pretty good, feeling better and calmer in general, more even emotionally and my skin has improved.
Has anyone experienced chlorine or chloramine or something else in tap water as a trigger for SD? I only have it on face and scalp, but I swear it seems to flare up after bathing regardless of how saintly I am with my diet. Does anyone know of drinking and or bathing in chlorinated water resulting in a flare up of SD and if so I wonder how it works.Is it an irritant or does it encourage inflammation or what? I guess the best way is to start using filtered water for everything and see if it helps, but it may be good for others also if anyone has anything to say about chlorine in water for bathing and or drinking. Thanks to eveeryone for putting energy in to the forum. Johnny
