Natural Remedy for Eczema

Eczema, also known as dermatitis, is a skin condition characterized by extreme dryness, red rashes, and itchiness. Although traditional treatments like steroids exist, they come with side effects. However, recent research suggests that essential fatty acids play a crucial role in eczema, indicating a dietary or genetic deficiency. By targeting GLA (gamma-linolenic acid) found in black currant seed oil, known for its high levels of GLA and omega-3 fatty acids, improvements in skin inflammation, microbial infections, and immune system function are observed. Studies show its efficacy comparable to steroid creams, making it a promising natural remedy for eczema.
