Assessment of the
Effectiveness of Vitamin Supplement in Treating Eczema: A Systematic Review and
Meta-Analysis - Evid Based Complement Alternat Med. 2019 Oct 31 -
"This study suggests that vitamin supplements could be
important therapeutics to help manage eczema patients"
-
Vitamin
B levels during pregnancy linked to eczema risk in child - Science Daily,
9/23/16 - "offspring of mothers with higher levels of
nicotinamide had a 30 per cent lower chance of developing atopic eczema at 12
months. There was an even stronger association with higher levels of anthranilic
acid, a tryptophan metabolite ... Nicotinamide can improve the overall
structure, moisture and elasticity of skin and therefore could potentially alter
the disease processes associated with eczema" - See
nicotinamide at Amazon.com.

Randomized trial of
vitamin D supplementation for winter-related atopic dermatitis in children -
J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2014 Oct;134(4):831-835.e1 -
"assigned to oral cholecalciferol (1000 IU/day) versus placebo for 1 month ...
Vitamin D supplementation improved winter-related AD among Mongolian children, a
population likely to have vitamin D deficiency in winter"- See
vitamin D at Amazon.com
 .
-
Vitamin
D significantly improves symptoms of winter-related atopic dermatitis in
children - Science Daily, 10/3/14 - "enrolled 107
children, ages 2 to 17, from nine outpatient clinics ... One group received a
daily vitamin D dose of 1000 IU while the other received a placebo ... At the
end of the month, children receiving the vitamin D supplement had an average 29
percent improvement on the primary assessment tool used, compared with 16
percent improvement in the placebo group" - See

Gamma-Linolenic Acid Levels Correlate with Clinical Efficacy of Evening Primrose
Oil in Patients with Atopic Dermatitis - Adv Ther. 2014 Jan 17 -
"Atopic dermatitis (AD) has been related to a deficiency
of delta-6-desaturase, an enzyme responsible for the conversion of linoleic acid
to gamma-linolenic acid (GLA). Evening primrose oil (EPO) contains high amounts
of GLA. Therefore, this study investigated whether EPO supplementation results
in an increase in plasma GLA and its metabolite dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid
(DGLA) correlating with clinical improvement of AD, assessed by the SCORing
Atopic Dermatitis (SCORAD) index ... The clinical disease activity under EPO
treatment correlates with the individual increase in plasma GLA levels. Thus,
the results of this pilot study indicate that an increase in plasma GLA might be
used as predictive parameter for responsiveness of AD to EPO therapy" -

Lower
levels of sunlight exposure link to allergy and eczema in children, study
suggests - Science Daily, 2/3/12 - "The report
builds upon existing evidence that suggests exposure to the sun may play a role
in rising levels of food allergy and eczema. Sunlight is important because it
provides our body with the fuel to create vitamin D in the skin" - See
vitamin D at Amazon.com.
-
Maternal omega-3 reduces eczema risk in children: Study - Nutra USA, 1/31/12
- "children whose mothers had consumed omega-3 daily had
36% less risk of developing eczema, a 38% reduction in the chance of being
sensitised to egg, and 50% less chance of having egg allergy" - See
Mega Twin EPA at Amazon.com
and
Jarrow Max DHA at Amazon.com.
-
Probiotics use in mothers limits eczema in their babies - Science Daily,
7/20/10 - "compared mothers who drank one glass of
probiotic milk a day to women who were given a placebo. Use of the probiotic
milk -- which the mothers drank beginning at week 36 in their pregnancy up
through to three months after birth -- reduced the incidence of eczema by 40
percent in children up to age two, the researchers found"
-
Lack
of omega-6 fatty acid linked to severe dermatitis - Science Daily,
4/14/10 - "Without arachidonic acid, the mice
developed severe ulcerative dermatitis. The animals were very itchy, they
scratched themselves continuously, and they developed a lot of bleeding
sores" - Note: I doubt if that's a problem in America where they get
way to much omega-6 already.
-
Vitamin, minerals may reduce eczema risk in children - Nutra USA, 2/1/10
-
Probiotics may reduce eczema risk by 60 per cent - Nutra USA, 5/15/09 -

during the first three months of life, after which the incidence of eczema
was similar between the groups" - [Abstract]
- See
probiotics at Amazon.com.
-
The effects of
selected probiotic strains on the development of eczema (the PandA study)
- Allergy. 2009 Apr 9 - "This particular combination
of probiotic bacteria shows a preventive effect on the incidence of eczema
in high-risk children, which seems to be sustained during the first 2 years
of life. In addition to previous studies, the preventive effect appears to
be established within the first 3 months of life" - See

production of a protective chemical normally found in the skin, and may help
prevent skin infections that are a common result of atopic dermatitis, the
most common form of eczema" - See
vitamin D at Amazon.com.
-
Eating Fish in Infancy Lowers Eczema Risk - WebMD, 9/24/08 -

group, and by 35.4 to 33.4 in the control group" - [Abstract]

Docosahexaenoic acid
(DHA) supplementation in atopic eczema: a randomized, double-blind,
controlled trial - Br J Dermatol. 2008 Jan 30 -

Docosahexaenoic acid
(DHA) supplementation in atopic eczema: a randomized, double-blind,
controlled trial - Br J Dermatol. 2008 Apr;158(4):786-92 -
"DHA, but not the control treatment, resulted in a
significant clinical improvement of atopic eczema in terms of a decreased
SCORAD [DHA: baseline 37.0 (17.9-48.0), week 8 28.5 (17.6-51.0); control:
baseline 35.4 (17.2-63.0), week 8 33.4 (10.7-56.2)]. A significant reduction
of anti-CD40/interleukin 4-mediated IgE synthesis of PBMC was detected in
the DHA group only ... DHA could be bioactive and might have a beneficial
impact on the outcome of atopic eczema" - See
Jarrow Max DHA at Amazon.com.
- GLA: The Right Remedy for
Eczema? - Dr. Weil, 11/21/02 -
"It has specific nourishing effects on
skin, hair, and nails that are not duplicated by
omega–3 fatty acids ... It is true that a high ratio of
omega-6 to omega-3 fatty acids in the diet promotes
inflammation by favoring synthesis of pro-inflammatory hormones
(prostaglandins). But the amount of
GLA needed to treat eczema and
other skin conditions (500 milligrams twice a day) is too small to affect
that ratio significantly" - See
gamma linolenic acid at Amazon.com
