![4 Common Foods that Make Eczema Worse [AVOID THIS]: Gut Health Expert](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/_ghEweX2vCY/mqdefault.jpg)
I don't like when doctors just treat the symptoms. Ok having eczema means a deficiency in ceramides... And where do they originate in the body? .... The liver! So help your liver! And yeah help topically too but c'mon! Let's fix the root cause!
Thankyou veru much !! Had the same thought. And i have eczema and i can tell after years of research it begins in the body, in your intestines. 9 of 10 times the most of diseases begins there. Therefore you need a strict dieet, no meat, sugar, carbs etc. The body of people with eczema cannot process certain waste products, which results in irritated skin. You will also conduct research into Ayurvedic methods of treating diseases. Most old and most effective + most substantiated information about how to treat diseases. This goes very deep.

That's about all we're going to get from a dermatologist, skin level cures. My general practitioner was the person who (also believes in holistic medicine) helped thru with testing, changes in my diet and supplements to get to the root cause.
Finally! Confirmation that exercise is triggering my itching. I can’t workout without antihistamine.
Same here and I can't tend what was wrong with me also even affect me while playing with my daughter
Is that dangerous for your liver. Say if you workout daily?

Do slow pilates ❤😊
Well diet helps rid of eczema ! If you have a condition that stops you from working out, I’d say find a natural way to fix that condition because humans are supposed to work out !!
Honestly and with all respect.
The only people that have not helped me with my eczema are dermatologist, they only treat the symptoms but never guess what is the cause of everything.
I agree. For years I bounced from dermatologists to allergists. My general practitioner was the person who (also believes in holistic medicine) helped me with changes in my diet and supplements to get to the root cause.
My eczema flared up recently. Thank you for these tips!
Stress?
I had an awful flare up over the past couple of months. It's just now healing up
My teenager is having a terrible flare up now, we've tried so many things that haven't worked. My heart breaks for her.
how is it now
try iron pills they helped me alot
Thank so much! As a dermatologist and eczema warrior, you really know how to help, cause you know the fight! Sadly, I have found 2 dermatologists that lack compassion. They have no clue how eczema can negatively affect your quality of life. I wanted to treat my eczema as naturally as possible, so I turned to UA-cam University, to others that live with it. So grateful you are here! ❤❤❤
I have just recently been diagnosed with Eczema and I have found your UA-cam video to be very enlightening … informative and thorough!
Thank You very much!!
Hi Dr Alexis, my comment is late but you are someone that has helped me so much, as a clinician in Africa( Tanzania) whose been learning so much from you for years, basically on skin of colour.....if this message is to reach you then just know you've made such positive impact in many people's lives....you've helped me do something, IF YOU DONT MIND I WOULD LIKE TO SEND IT TO YOU...
It's been two solid years I have used herpes herbal cleanser from @nzenjokuherbalhome on UA-cam I still remain herpes free. Ignorant itself is a disease
Hi Dr Stephens, I have been in debt to you since following your channel. My skin has a very lovely glow as of now ✨️ I owe it all to your brilliance in skin care. Thanks,Victor from Atlanta ❤
What a great review of the tools that can be used to deal with eczema! Very professional, helpful and friendly presentation. Thank you, Dr. Stephens!
You Go Girl!!!!! You have Absolutely Blessed me and my daughter!!! Thank you May God Bless You!
Thank you so much Dr. Stephens. Your channel has blessed me so much. ❤️
Super helpful. My 23yr old has really bad flares and this came in at the right time. THANK YOU 😊.
Wow! first time I discover your channel and I have to tell you that I have the same condition and it's true that it's a very sensitive thing.. any thing that affects me psychologically or a food that I consume, or a lifestyle triggers my skin condition. I have to tell you that your skin is so perfect!
It was a perfect storm for me. Eczema(toxins, water & heat), leaky gut & histamine intolerance. I fasted for 30 hours, started giving the dishwasher and washing machine a 2nd rinse and kept my showers on the warm side rather than hot. I'm feeling MUCH better.
THIS WAS GREAT AND RIGHT ON TIME DR. STEPHENS. I just started with this so called Eczema in my early 60s and still have not found a good dermatologist who knows how to treat it correctly. I have placed an order for the cream and serum you mentioned in the video and have already implemented most of your suggestions, which are definitely on point, especially the patting. I also notice when I use cold or ice water, it helps a lot. A P.A. I visited did prescribe a good steroid ointment which you have to be careful because it will thin out your skin. I use it very sparingly and only when the symptoms gets too unbearable. I also find that using the CeraVe Ointment helps a lot and when I scratch too hard which creates blisters or cuts, my good old Neosporin helps. Thank you for taking the time to provide all the helpful tips.

My inner past child would’ve loved these tips back in the day! Thanks for the tips bc my summer flare ups on my fingers are possibly coming around any day now😅.
You are welcome! Thank you for watching!
@@DrAlexisStephens please how can I treat Eczema around my eyebrow line ? Thanks
@@DrAlexisStephens I have a question about hyaluronic acid I came across a dermatologist that didn’t recommend using anything with hyaluronic acid in it which is crazy because I’ve purchased a lot of products with hyleronic acid in it thinking it was a good ingredient which it is but apparently not four people with eczema could you tell me if that’s true or not?!
Super informative and affirming ! I’ve been doing these things just by trial and error, you’ve described the science behind why they work. I’m gonna pick up some necessarie and give it try
It is amazing to me that ppl are still putting out videos like this without addressing the gut microbiome and the gut-skin access
Thank you, Dr. Lex! That is Excellent information.
omg u and ur kid look like angels 🥺
I’m so excited to watch this. I requested it on your evening routine video
Eczema Warrior! I love it. My son has had it since he was 2 months old. It has been so bad his thumb nail feel off twice. Now that he is 14 its easier. We also started dupixent. I was hesitant to try but not only did it help his eczema, he barely needs his inhalers and gets sick less. Adding a few of yhe products to try list
Perfect 👌🏽 This was so helpful! Thank you for being true to your word & filming this video for us. We appreciate you 🙏🏽

Excellent informative video with great production value. Good job Doctor👍
Very detailed info. Thanks so much!
My children and i have eczema and i suffered really bad as a child thank you for sharing
I'm so glad you did this video. I'm in tbe midst of a flare up right now. I've been prescribed 3 different creams & 2 allergy medications & to try to get it under control but nothing is working. This video is right on time.
How has it been
First time listening and i subscribe!! She cover every area in details.
Coconut oil has been a game changer for me only thing that helps the itchiness
Discovered this 2 days ago and I’m living my best life
Try something with kokum butter like the eczema cream from mastoora. That has been the only thing to clear my daughters skin
I find coconut oil seemed a bit greasy. Maybe I should give it time to absorb?
@@FranksPianoscapeabsolutely its very good greasy skin vs dry flaky itchy skin?
@@carolinajimenez998 True...better greasy than flaky, itchy, cracking and bleeding skin!
DAIRY IS A MAJOR FACTOR
Yes only one factor but I’ve cut it out all together and still have eczema. I’ve given up so many foods now I’m underweight. I’m frustrated with eczema. Summer coming and I cannot wear shorts or dresses no mater how hot it is.
@Mush2389 I feel you. Its so frustrating.
Excellent video! It's really concise and useful. I'm going to apply some of these tips for my hand eczema. Thanks!
Great education video, thanks for sharing! I learned quite a bit
Hi doc, please do a full video on hair care products for black and brown skin kids with eczema on scalp.
Thank you for talking about the differences between the two. I would love to see a video on festoons and malar bags.
😊 Hi Dr Alexis, what the difference between eczema and psoriasis? How do I recognize which is which? Thank you so much for the information. 🙏🙏🙏
The biggest things I’ve done for my eczema is getting all cotton sheets and pillow cases putting a air purifier in my room and buying screens that help block out pollen from my windows and the next big thing was taking cooler showers and now all I use is colloidal oat products like aveeno and taking oatmeal baths which did wonders especially in the summer when my skin is more irritated. My body care and skincare routine has oats in every step I can’t live without them and making my own oat mask with the aveeno 100% oats.
Hi Dr. Stephens! I just battled with a bout of eczema. I finally got some answers, and my contact allergy to nickel has reached new heights of systemic nickel allergy syndrome. The experience was miserable because not only did I have a recurring rash on my neck, but I had welts on my left leg. So, I researched high nickel foods, got a glass water jug, increased my omega-3 consumption, and began taking vitamin C after every meal (don't do this willy nilly contact your doctor). I also understood I had to keep the rash on my neck hydrated. I began applying the Vichy 89 thermal water, applied trauma over that, and then castor oil with an organic flannel to protect it. I have some hyperpigmentation from the rash, but I'm okay with working on that slowly. I'm just grateful I found you and some other derm's on UA-cam. I knew to get myself to the doctor and get allergy tested again. Thanks!
Hi, what did you apply after Vichy Thermal h20? It says trauma?? Just curious, thanks.
You are crushing it, thank you
Hey Dr. Alexis
Im Dr. Triza working in a rural facility in Kenya. Keep up the good work
Dr. Stephen’s, I tremendously enjoy your informative videos. I would love you to do a review on the La-Roche-Posay Anthelios UV correct SPF 70 Broad Spectrum Lotion! I’m absolutely in love with it. I’ve tried so many other higher SPF (currently using Arazlo , and Cyspera) sunscreens and they all have left a horrible white cast. I suffer from Melasma , hyper pigmentation, breakouts and sensitive skin , so it is super important for me to protect my skin from the UV rays. This one here! Goes on smoothly, and feels like a light moisturizer, and does not feel oily in the humid conditions of South Texas. A little pricey, but worth it’s weight in gold!
My favorite dermatologist❤. Castro oils work wonders.
I have learned a lot about my hair with Ezcema. I still have not been able to grow my edges back like I want to. I am still learning about more and more everyday.
This video came at the right time. My usual products that I have used for years is not helping and my skin is becoming flared with textured.
Thank you so much ! Bleach baths have changed the game for me
You shld have so many more views!!!!! Thank you for such a gr8t vid.
I am late to the game on your channel but so glad I stumbled upon it! You've mentioned in a few videos how important ceramides, fatty acids, and cholesterol is for the skin barrier, but one of the products you mentioned having all those good ingredients doesn't overtly list those exact words in the ingredient list. Are there other words that could be used for those, or how can we know if a products contains them all? Thanks so much for all you do!
thank u for sharing these tips, choosing a moisturizer with colloidal oatmeal and ceramide helped tremendously
Which did you choose?
My eczema only flares up when I don’t moisturise. If I use heavy moisturisers and moisturise after showering and obviously thick moisturisers on my face, I can keep the eczema away. But if I forget a single area I will get the red rash. It’s hard to find thick enough moisturisers that keeps my skin moist all day/night. Also ceramides really helps mine to look and feel better. 😊
Thank you Dr. Alexis. This is good info to know. I'm wondering if you could continue with your Chemical Peel series. I'm getting one for the first time soon and want to know more. I'm having it done by a black Derm 😉
Thank you for sharing. Please do a video on how to reduce or get rid of stretch marks for people who aren’t pregnant ?
I would like to thank you for this information
Ur videos are so helpful
Hey Doctor!! Could you do a vid on what order to apply your skincare products?
What a charming young lady and such a very interesting video on eczema! I've had eczema most of my life ☹Im going through a flar up at this very moment and its driving me crazy 🤪
Yes it's very helpful.
Thank you queen ❤
Awww look at the babies
Thank you. I would really love to know how to fade the hyperpigmentation from it
SAME HERE
Is there specific ingredients you would recommend for Dyshidrotic eczema on hand?
Thanks, Dr! Do you mind doing a video on back acne? 😢
Thank you Dr. Alexis this will be very helpful for my son and I. Especially me with my terrible scratching habits. Do you have any tips for healing from Pityriasis Rosea?
Thank you! ❤
Thank you for watching!
Hi Dr. Stephens! Can you please do a video or share your thoughts on Cyspera? There’s a 3-step system and a cream. I’m not sure which is best for PIH. Thanks so much for your time. Your videos are super helpful! 💓
Thank you my son has eczema... Good tips
I'll give it a try.
Thank you❤
Hi, I love your videos💓!! Could you please do a video on LED micro-current massagers? Are they worth the buy or more affective than guashas at sculpting the face? Any risks?
Amazing video. Can you tell me what lipgloss you are wearing? It’s look very hydrating.
Dr Stephens, can you please do recommendations for cleansing oils and cleansing balms (for different skin types)
Hello Dr. Stephens. I would like to ask a question on a different topic. What are the best products to use on a burn to bring back the color on darker skin?
Perfect timing I have dyshidrotic eczema that gave me the worst flare
Hope you find these tips helpful!
Your daughter is adorable!!! Like YOU!!!
Please do a video on topical Metformin!
Hello Doc I love your content I got some of your products that worked very well on my skin, I have a problem I have white dots on my skin what products can I use ?
As someone with eczema, that’s necessaire body cream WORKS! I’m on my second jar.
Agree but the pilling is intense!
Can it be used on the face or just body please?
I've had severe chronic eczema since childhood. One of the skin creams I use now is: Avène's "XeraCalm Lipid Replenishing Baume". It must be the baume tho, not the cream. I love it. Works like a charm. Prior to that, I was using the La Roche Posay Lipid Replenishing Baume Lipikar AP+. My new dermatologist gave me a sample at his office during consultation with him in July 2018. That product was life-changing for me because it calmed my eczema down to the point where I stopped scratching. I used it non-stop until La Roche Posay discontinued it in February 2021 (smdh). So, I had to scramble to find a replacement. Thank God for Avène.... they're getting all my money now lol. Check it out.
Of course, eczema is a multifactorial health issue, and the info above was only addressing the topical component. I had to make lifestyle changes to keep inflammation as low as possible inside my body because I was already dealing with severe sleep deprivation from eczema and the daily, non-stop skin trauma from eczema. I live a healthy lifestyle, I eat vegan (I focus on eating plant based, because vegans can still be unhealthy by eating lots of processed foods), I exercise regularly, I don't drink alcohol or smoke anything. Plus there's many other lifestyle changes I had to make over time. I want to keep my body has happy as possible and not piss it off. Because once my eczema gets angry, it's horrendous.
Anyways, hopefully the skin product info is helpful to you.
Much love 💗✨
Where to find this brand?
@SlovenCathrin I just looked online. It is carried at Sephora.
Can you do a video on how to treat sunburns on dark skin?

Hi doctor this is kinda off topic. But im so thankful to have found your channel 💛 your beautiful and lovely for sharing your gifts and knowledge. However Iooked at alot at your videos tonight and I may have overlooked but have your a video specific to HS Hidradenitis suppurativa? I been suffering from this for years and particularly in my inner thighs and under my breast and ofcourse. Its just embarrassing at this I don't have money to see a dermatologist so im hoping to find a way to help treat it. Thank you if you can make a video about it. Id appreciate it so much. I also have some friends that I send over to watch to about the video we need help 😢
Could you please do a video on Kojie San soap ?
If it is harmful or not. Please tell me. And will my tan come back if i stop using it ?
Could you please link for the mentioned app for tracking food.❤
Thank you for the information about eczema. I have been bothered with this condition for years. Your information has been very helpful 👌.
What do you suggest for the hyperpigmentation?
The nail polish on the eyelids and the antihistamine before excercise are true gems 🙌🏾
Where are you while I'm waiting for you to come to Istanbul,
How many times a week do you exercise?
@@watwat-zh7xl about 4. I also think showering immediately after and not letting the sweat sit on your body helps.
How do you feel about aquaphor for babies and toddlers? Also can thay cream you recommended be used on children or just adults?
This may seem like a random question, but you always have the most beautiful headbands. Where do you buy your headbands from?
Would you recommend sunscreen for people with eczema on face?
Your daugther is adorable 🥺
Dr. Stephens you are THE greatest!!!❤❤❤ You need to do a dermatology tour. Start in SC, I'll drive the luxury tour bus.❤❤😂😂 No FRFR.😅
Can't say thank you enough and I'm yet to try out the tips presented.
The presentation is informative and easy to comprehend.
Thank You!❤
Hi Dr. Alexis, can you please do a review on Paula's Choice healthy glow invisible sunscreen oil? There are no reviews out there...also reviews on new sunscreens selection good for the whole family and with no white cast..
I have been watching your videos. Before today, I hadn’t gone to the dermatologist in a year and a half. I’m glad to be going back! I feel like I’ve grown so much in the skincare arena since I’ve seen her and understand her recommendations and treatment options. I’ve even started seeing my esthetician again. I don’t know that either of these are mandatory but it does help when you have sensitive skin, eczema, texture issues, etc
Here is management guidelines for eczema

Hello Dr. Stephens. Happy belated Mother’s Day! Would you please review John Legend’s Loved01 skincare line? Also, Truth Treatment Systems, please? Much obliged and thank you❤
Can you explain/do a video on immunomodulators
I love Aveeno & Vaseline.
Absolutely great information. Thank you so much for this particular video. So very helpful.🩷✨️🌞
Hey dr alexis can you share your journey of how you became a dermatologist . I also want to be a dermatologist when i grow up as I am currently in grade 10 so it would be helpful if you could share some insight of your journey thank you and have a great day
wow thank you for your help with explaining the reasons for flare-ups I recently (3 weeks ago) got boho knotless box braids in my hair and ever since then I've had a excema flare up on the back of my neck which is causing a little hyperpigmentation and thicker skin. I usually put some Aveeno baby oatmeal lotion and seal it with Aquaphora, but recently it doesn't seem to be doing the job as well as I need it to. do you have some advice on how I can get rid of my flare-up quicker?
Hello thank you for the video...
Do you think that shea butter works for eczema or topical dermatitis? I know that certain hand sanitizers flare up the rash on my skin.
I noticed since I stopped using particular hand sanitizers and not let bleach touch my hands, it has reduced. But it has not completely gone away.
