About

If the person is su!ering from eczema he/she will

try to do all that takes to stop the irritation and
itching. The main issue with eczema is that there is
no evidence that eczema is caused due to some
speci"c food. But there are some people who say
that their symptoms become worse after
consuming a certain food. Therefore, it is advisable
to have a proper healthy eczema diet.

It is very di#cult to "nd out exactly what is making

one's skin condition $are. It is often hard to tell if
the issue is with the food or any other triggers like,
for example, stress.

Some people opt for elimination diet where they try

to cut out one or more foods completely from their
diet like eggs, paneer or cow's milk. But there's not
much good evidence that the elimination diet helps
the adults with the condition. Therefore until and
unless it is proved that the speci"c food is causing
the allergy, talk with the doctor before cutting out
the entire food group or making other major
changes in the eczema diet.
