How it works
Food allergens trigger IgE-mediated and T-cell-mediated immune responses that manifest as skin inflammation in sensitised individuals.
More effective in children and people with confirmed food allergies. Get allergy testing before eliminating major food groups. Risk of nutritional deficiency with broad elimination.
Evidence supports food triggers in a subset of eczema patients, particularly children. Adults with eczema alone show lower response rates to elimination diets.

βSome improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.β
