Re: first time eczema flare up & depressed!

Congrats on your eczema success! My mother had awful exzema on her hands. They would weep, crack and bleed and itch till she couldn't stand it. Another wonderful thing to use for the skin is Nutiva virgin organic coconut oil. Coconut is bar far the best thing you can put on your skin. Take 3-4 tablespoons internally and slather it on the skin whenever you feel symptoms. It absorbs easily and won't make you feel greasy if you use a light coat. It's best to use it after showering (use a chlorine filter and very little if any soap)while the skin is still damp. Then, gently pat away any excess water with a towel. After about a week, you will not believe your results! Even healthy skin will show a marked improvement. It also kills bacteria and parasites inside the body and on the skin.
I would also add Nutiva hemp seed oil to the diet. Most exzema sufferers have omega 3 fatty acid deficiencies and this is the best choice, along with spirulina. My favorite brand is Royal Body Care. It's organic.
There's a great book about coconut oil called The Coconut Oil Miracle by Fife. It cites many clinical studies and much scientific evidence for the many benefits of the oil.
Try these things and see if they are any more help!
