Many people use trial and error to find out which food does this, but the most common foods are:

Strangely, eczema affects people differently, and you may want to keep a food diary to keep track.

There are a number of different products on the market today which reduce eczema, many of which work well, many not so well. One of the most crucial steps to reducing eczema is making sure the affected skin is well moisturised, as if it becomes too dry it can flair up much quicker.

Another good reason to use these is that using soap can remove the natural oils in your skin, making it more sensitive to irritants.

Personally, I have always used Aveeno eczema products and never had any problems with them. Furthermore, my eczema hasn't come up in at least 3 years now.

Many people are allergic to dust mites, so its important to understand how they affect people with eczema and how to reduce them (unfortunately, its impossible to get rid of all of them).

Bear in mind, if you have mild eczema which can be controlled using treatments (such as the aveeno eczema products mentioned above), then this may not be of much benefit:

1. Remove carpets from the bedroom.
2. Avoid soft furnishing in the bedroom.
3. Use feather rather than synthetic pillows.
4. Wet-dust the bedroom furniture every 1-2 weeks.
5. Vacuum or clean the bedroom floor regularly.
6. Vacuum the mattress once a week.
7. Regularly ventilate the bedroom (open the door and a window for a while on most days).
8. Try to keep humidity low.

The best vitamins you can take to help you reduce your eczema are evening primrose oil, fish oil and zinc. Just taking these occasionally (Typically once a day, however it varies by product) can help long term.

Below are the 3 products I purchase regularly, and strongly recommend, all by 'Nature Made' (These are especially important if you, like myself, aren't able to get enough of these in your normal diet).

Many people believe that stress can set eczema off, however it is because many people 'habit scratch' when they are stressed that eczema occurs.

There are many different exercises you will find on the internet to help you to reduce stress, however if the stress is work-related, then the best thing that you can do is take a short break, have a coffee/tea, then get back to it 10 minutes later.

Personally, I have always been a bit weary of E-books promising to do something. However, I was happily surprised with this E-Book:

Cure Your Eczema In 14 Days

You should be able to get by just fine with the tips I have mentioned, however there are some excellent tips in this book that can help should all else fail.

Wish you all the best!
