How to heal eczema naturally

Here’s the secret about healing eczema or skin rashes: it’s not about finding the perfect skincare routine. Clear skin comes from within. Eczema, and other rashes, are symptoms; the root cause often lies in one or more of your detox organs (gut, liver, kidneys, or lungs) struggling to function as they should. This may be due to a highly inflammatory diet, an underlying infection, mould exposure, dehydration, or other factors.

Start with the basics. Make sure your detox organs are supported and working optimally: ensure you have daily bowel movements, drink enough fluids, move your body regularly, and eat a low-inflammatory, whole-food diet.

From there, begin to focus on uncovering your personal root causes. Keeping a daily symptom tracker can be invaluable, as it helps you connect flares with possible triggers. Note down food, drink, sleep, stress levels, environment change, cleaning products, etc.

Remember — skin reactions can appear up to four days after exposure to an irritant!
