Eczema causes itching on the skin. Therefore, adopting an elimination diet along with home remedies can provide relief from eczema. Under the elimination diet plan, the foods that cause allergies should not be included in your diet for a month or more. Come, let's know about this step by step -

• You may be allergic to foods like cereals, milk, milk products, egg, soy, fish, snail, and crab. Apart from this, dry fruits like almonds, walnuts, and pistachios are also allergic foods. Do not include these foods in your diet for a month or more.
• Don't eat sugary foods and processed foods as well.
• Apart from this, avoid alcohol and caffeine.
• Also avoid certain vegetables like chilies, potatoes, tomatoes, and brinjals.

These foods are high in a substance called histamine (histamine is a substance in immune system cells that promotes inflammation in your body).

In the first phase of an elimination diet, you remove the allergenic foods from your diet for a month or more. After a month, slowly include them in your diet. For example, you include milk in your diet after one month. If the symptoms of eczema do not improve after including milk, then you should include it permanently in your diet plan. If you are allergic to milk again, remove it from your diet and include other foods, and see their effect.

In this way, gradually you will come to know which food items you have to keep in your diet and which are not. Be sure to consult your doctor before adopting an elimination diet. Also, keep in touch with your doctor during the elimination diet.
