If you’re struggling with eczema you will know that prescribed medication is expensive and not always effective. There are dozens of alternative home remedies which are easy and cheap. The problem is that many of them simply do not work and turn out to be a waste of time. I have put numerous home remedies to the test over a long period of time and found three natural remedies that have been proven to work in the battle against eczema.

Kelp

In our everyday diet we consume many acidic types of foodstuffs. The acid builds up in the body and can trigger eczema outbreaks in those who suffer from the condition. One way to bring down the levels of acid in your body is to take kelp supplements. Kelp is a type of seaweed which has been found to contain vitamins, minerals and proteins all of which is good for the body. More importantly for eczema sufferers is the fact that kelp contains high concentrations of alkali which will help lower any excess acids in the body.

Vitamin E

Studies have been shown that Vitamin E is extremely effective in countering the microbes which cause the irritation at the heart of the itching and discomfort suffered by people with Eczema. Try to include foodstuffs that are rich in Vitamin E in your daily diet like avocado, spinach, various types of nuts and milk. You could also buy a Vitamin E supplement but first try to get the required amount in its natural form.

Green Tea

Green Tea is my personal favourite. It contains epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) which is an extremely potent anti-oxidant. This inhibits the growth of cancer cells and helps lower cholesterol. Drinking several cups of green tea every day cools the body down, both inside and out.

While Kelp, Vitamin E and regular cups of green tea are all extremely effective at keeping your eczema under control, they will not be able to eliminate it entirely. There is only one natural eczema remedy which eventually cured my eczema altogether and it happened in less than two weeks. Click here to find out how I finally beat eczema.
