Supplementation with Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) stimulates butyrate production and can minimise the severity of atopic dermatitis (AD) in children, say researchers.
Routine vitamin D supplementation during pregnancy can reduce incidence of atopic eczema in the first year of life, according to researchers at the University of Southampton.
Here we present the latest research and innovation around skin health, including how processed foods consumption is linked to higher risk of eczema, a Singapore’s firm’s ‘bio-optimised’ collagen shots innovation, and the potential benefits of coix seed...
A new study investigating the effects of two organic seaweed extracts on atopic dermatitis (AD), the most common type of eczema, suggests they may alter gene expression when used as a topical solution.
Sufferers of atopic dermatitis are more likely to have low serum vitamin D levels and vitamin D supplements could be a new way to combat the common skin condition, a review has said.
Below normal levels of vitamin D, due to low sun exposure, have been associated with increased incidence of food allergy and eczema in children, say researchers.
Combining probiotics and prebiotics to produce a symbiotic may reduce the severity of eczema in children, suggests new research from Taiwan with 60 children.
Daily supplements of a probiotic strain of Lactobacillus rhamnosus may reduce the incidence of childhood eczema by about 50 per cent, according to a new study.
A combination of probiotics and prebiotics for newborns reduced the
incidence of eczema by 34 per cent in high-risk children, says a
new study from Finland.
Adding the probiotic bacteria Lactobacillus GG (LGG) to the daily
diet of children with a food allergy helped to reduce eczema
symptoms, report researchers this month.
British babies with eczema are taking part in a project to test
whether supplements containing probiotic gut bacteria can help to
improve their symptoms.
