Diet
For some people, allergens in the diet may contribute to exacerbations of eczema. For these people, identifying the allergens can help to treat the eczema. Allergies to the following foods can cause eczema:
Cow milk proteins, including Casein.
Preservatives, including: Sulphites, sulphates, nitrites, nitrates, sulphur dioxide, sodium benzoate and many more.
It might be necessary to avoid processed foods to remove these allergens from the diet. This is because many processed foods contain milk-derived products such as whey powder, which is added to the food as a filler. Processed meats (for example: ham, salami and bacon) often contain preservatives in very high doses. Many fizzy drinks also contain preservatives.
Acidic foods (like tomatoes) can also cause outbreaks.
