Understanding Skin Conditions
Eczema and psoriasis are rooted in immune system miswiring rather than hormonal imbalances. The immune system may overreact to environmental factors, leading to skin flare-ups. For example, studies indicate that children living near highways show higher instances of eczema, suggesting that environmental exposures play a significant role. Addressing the immune system's response may involve strengthening gut health, providing essential nutrients, and minimizing exposure to toxins.
