I have dealt with eczema for as long as I can remember. Like many of you, my condition has fluctuated in intensity, and I’ve often been confused about what makes it better or worse. I realize most people might dismiss what I’m saying, but if even a handful of you try these and get results, I’ll be satisfied.
- ELIMINATE REFINED SUGAR
Cut it all out—white, brown, everything. Stick to natural sources like fruit. Chocolate is out. I didn’t realize I was addicted until I quit. If you can manage this for three weeks, I think you’ll notice a drop in inflammation and redness. After three weeks of no sugar, my skin went from being bright red across my face, torso, and limbs to having no redness at all. I had tried everything else before this.
- GET SUNLIGHT
It’s simple: real sun for 20 to 30 minutes daily without sunscreen. Criticize me if you want, but I felt the itching and redness subside within 20 minutes of exposure. Growing up in the UK, this wasn’t an option, but moving to a warmer climate showed me how vital it is.
- MUSHROOMS
Not the ones from the grocery store. I’m not entirely sure why they help, but they do, and I think the same applies to LSD. To be safe, I’d suggest growing your own, which is quite easy. I’d recommend either consistent micro-dosing (three times weekly) or a larger dose once a month. Again, feel free to judge, but I find them to be truly transformative.
I’ll stop there. I have a few other ideas, but these have done more for me than the most expensive specialists in the world. One last thing: if you’re feeling hopeless, please don’t give up. Keep pushing. You can get through this and find relief.
