You Are What You Digest: The Secret to Healing Eczema
Summary
- Understand that you are not just what you eat, but what you digest. If your child's body isn't strong enough to break down and absorb nutrients, even the healthiest foods can cause imbalance and worsen conditions like eczema.
- Discover how to nourish your gut with warm, moist, and unprocessed foods, such as stews and cooked greens rich in healthy fats, while limiting cold, dry, or heavily processed foods that increase internal heat and inflammation.
- Know that preconception and pregnancy choices are key to a baby’s health, and learn how to advocate against unnecessary interventions like antibiotics, which can severely impact both the mother’s and baby’s essential gut microbiome.
