ALLERGENS
Allergens in the air and in the
food are often triggers for a flare-up of this disorder. A
blood test can indicate which foods and substances may be triggering your eczema. This is helpful in knowing what allergens to avoid, since you can’t and shouldn't try to avoid everything that might be considered an allergen without any incriminating evidence. Occasionally, using an electrostatic air purifier can help reduce airborne allergen exposure at home or in the workplace.

Dietary management of atopic
dermatitis continues to be a controversial subject among doctors. The most
common allergens appear to be eggs, cow’s milk, soy, wheat, nuts and fish. Care must be taken to avoid
malnutrition when any restrictive diets are used.
The role of bottle feeding versus
breast feeding of infants in the development of atopic dermatitis continues to
be unclear; however, many doctors and mothers believe breast feeding may delay
the onset of dermatitis if practiced for at least the first three to six months
of life.
