Eczema

Eczema, or dermatitis as it is sometimes called, is a skin condition that can affect all age groups. The severity of the disease can vary – in mild forms the skin is dry, hot and itchy, whilst in a more severe form the skin can become broken, raw and bloody. It looks unpleasant however it is not contagious and with treatment the inflammation can be reduced. Prostaglandins, which strongly influence the skin’s health, are the body’s chemical messengers, governing many processes including inflammation. These are not stored in the body but must be constantly synthesized from essential fatty acids which are taken from the diet. Recent studies suggested that omega 3 fish oil supplements rich in EPA/DHA and GLA help prevent both eczema and psoriasis.
