Expectant Moms: Diet Matter In Preventing Infant Eczema

January 27, 2009 on 2:35 pm | In Uncategorized |

One of the most common types of eczema is atopic eczema (atopic dermatitis), which occurs mostly in babies and children. It is an allergic condition that makes your skin dry and itchy. Eczema cannot be cured, but you can prevent some types of eczema by avoiding irritants, stress and the things you are allergic to. People with eczema also may have asthma and certain allergies, such as hay fever.

Recent research suggests that when moms-to-be eat apples during pregnancy, their offspring have lower rates of asthma. And mothers who consume fish during pregnancy may lower their child’s risk of developing the allergic skin condition eczema. The study, published in the journal Thorax, found that mothers who ate fish more than once a week had children who were 43 percent less likely to have eczema than women who never ate fish. While this advice applies to everyone, it may be even more important for those with a family history of allergies. Prenatal nutrition still needs more research, but it is still insisted that pregnant women might want to pick their foods wisely, because what they’re eating today may not only nourish the body, but may have an impact on the baby’s future health.
