What foods cause eczema?
Eczema refers to a variety of skin diseases that are all a form of dermatitis, where skin inflammations occur. Those with the condition suffer from dry, itchy skin that often forms as a rash in some or all areas of the body, mainly the flexor joints such as the elbows, knees and wrists.
There is no definite cause for eczema as of yet. It is known that certain forms of eczema are hereditary. Most types of eczema occur because the immune system is thought to overreact to certain triggers. Some eczemas flare up when the weather is too hot or too cold, when a certain material of clothing is worn, when a certain soap or detergent is used, when other allergies such as asthma and hay fever are present, or even in stressful situations.
