Hello Carisa,

Can you post come of your Kefir recipes?

Also, is EFT something that I can do myself?

Thanks,
Shannon

True, and corn is a grain, not a vegetable, and is of little nutritional value.
We are all better off without corn and it’s by products.

Hi Pamela,
It is wonderful to hear that your baby has gotten such great relief from
changing her diet. Just a note though on the corn. Corn is very drying and
energy robbing to both animals and humans. So you might want to reconsider
not giving her corn. It is very difficult on the digestive system, and it
takes a great deal of energy away from the body’s system to digest which
means that energy has to come from somewhere else within her little body to
digest it. Maybe that little additional energy might go instead to her
healing instead of digesting. Just a thought.

hello everyone,

I was reading the massages, I know how you feel, it is not easy deal with
eczema, especially when you are a baby, they can not tell you how they feel, and
they feel so bad that they can not do anything, my daughter she is now 20 month,
she had dry skin when she born, by 2 month she star patches of eczema by 6 month
her hole body was cover, by 9 month even the scalp, and the eyes, we saw 6
pediatricians, 2 dermatology’s, an allergist, and a naturist but nothing, until
she was 18 month we saw and allergist, She gave us a diet of no dairy,soy,
peanuts, nuts, eggs, wheat, chicken and beef. also no citric, berries, and
melon. Just for a month to see, and after you introduce one at the time, to see
what happen,
It is not so hard we eat veggies, fruit, cod fish and pork… I prepare
everything in home, Is a little boring diet, I gave her a potato and some corn
just plain little salt for couple a days then I gave her other veggies like

broccoli, peas, carrots,just steam, then some fish and pork. (we did not eat
nothing already made or outside, no sweets or snack) (I found rice snacks, and
rice cracker )for her to snack…( I eat the same diet as her because she still
breastfeeding).
But I star notice that her skin star healing we use Elocon ( cortisone) very
little, we use some atarax, vitamins, flax seed oil(omega oil), and culturell
(probiotic), and it work for us.
It takes time, fist all the redness got better, she was peeling off, little by
little all her chest, and back, then the legs and arms, she has some at her
hands and feet, but is getting better, her face clear up, her eyes are OK now
she has some at her scalp, but her hair is growing and the mos important is that
she is not as itchy, she looks normal now….
She get some redness spots, but they go away, for us the diet was the
difference, is been 2 month and we are very happy, I like to share It may help
you.

Where did you get the shea butter? It could possibly be contaminated with
solvents if it is not from a pure supplier. The African Shea Butter company has
the best, purest butter I have found and it is fair trade and ethically produced
and farmed.
Also, make sure you are rinsing the salts from her skin, thoroughly, and
applying plenty of shea butter and coconut oil while she is still damp from the
bath. Even then, it will take 4-6 weeks for her skin to respond. Skin takes a
while to heal. She may just be shedding the dead skin off the top layer of the
epidermis right now so she looks and feels drier, but new, healthier skin is on
it’s way up to the surface. Remember to giver her the cod liver oil as well.
This is vitally important. Eczema is not something that can be cured only with
topical treatments.

WOW…thank you guys so much for the reply, concern, advices and prayers. My
baby’s skin wasn’t so dry when I was aquaphor to hydrate and freederm
(1%hydrocortisone) to get rid of the redness, was always reluctant to use all
that was prescribed to her…and I didn’t, but used the hydrocortisone when she
turned red. She’s taking an average of 4oz of water a day…I’ve been using a
baby detergent from seventh generations, I only use a little bit. Since I
joined this site, I’ve been trying the natural aproach, I bought the bronner’s
soap for babies, I’m putting extra virgin coconut oil on her while she’s still
wet from the bath, and putting 100%shea butter on her throughout the day. She’s
been getting very dry and rough…do you guys know why that might be?
I thank god for the group, you guys do a lot better job than the 10 different
doctors we’ve visited. You listen, ask questions, show concern, offer advice
and check up….everything a doctors gets big bucks for doing..

Thank you very much,

Meivy

Also, she could be allergic to the products you are using on her clothes?
Are you keeping her in a lot of clothes washed with commercial detergent?
Or she may be allergic to something you are using on her like those
commercial baby products. Maybe you might try cleaning products and baby
products you can get from the health food store.

Meivy,
Have you started with the basics? How much water is your baby getting? It
sounds like your baby needs hydration from the inside. Water, water, and
more water, and I don’t mean juice. Also, healing external treatment is one
thing, but if she is dehydrated no amount of external treatment is going to
help.

I myself’s been suffering frm psoriasis dry skin condition. I found out that
petroleum jelly with olive oil extract has been workin for me. I’d strongly
reccomend that as i’d been a freak for long. I’ve’d psoriasis on my face for
long enough that i gotta put a break to’t. I applied the substance on my face &
other affected areas before bedtime to avoid all the grisly feeling. I hoped
it’d help. May God bless ur Child’

Regards
Susan

Keeping my son’s skin from being dry is not really a problem for me.
It is his itching and rashes. I can tell you what I do for the
dryness and maybe you have already tried it. First I switch between
a few different emoillents because experiences of my own, it seems
the skin gets used to one and they dont work so well anymore. I
switch between, Vaseline, Vanicream, Eucerin and Crisco. Yes crisco
seems strange. I am not sure if anyone has tried it since I am new
to this site. A dermatologist suggested it when my son was younger.
It is not as moisturizing as the others but it melts into the skin
and it is easy to use. I dont dry my son after a bath. I just wrap
him in a towel and then immediately use a thin layer of one of the
emoillents. Then I use a special cream. Right now I am using
freederm (it is ok but does contain 1% cortisone), calendula cream,
skin-e-dip (which is in the mail and haven’t tried yet) or any of
the oils you are talking about. Then I put another layer of

emoillent on top. The best thing I have done which has helped
dramatically for my sons itching was sewed thin cotton socks on the
end of my son’s pj’s for when he sleeps. I put him in these for
naptime and bedtime. He is 2 years old and of course he hates them
but gets used to them.
My other suggestion is if it is not too humid where you live to run
a humidifier in their room. It is very humid where I live so I dont
have to do this. I only do it during the winter months.
I am going to start Black Currant oil, does anyone know about this.
I hope that my suggestions gave you some ideas. Good luck!
