Eczema as skin allergic disease ECZEMA AS SKIN ALLERGIC DISEASE
Hypoallergenic Feeding
The prevention of eczema is achieved partly through hypoallergenic feedings. For example, an atopic baby should be breast fed. If that is impossible, the baby (until eight months of age) has to be fed a hypoallergenic diet that contains no egg, meat, fish, milk, or orange. The one suggested by the author allows everything outlined here.
Juice: Pineapple juice, grape juice, apricot juice, apple juice, Soya milk (15 1/2 oz.) combined with boiled water (151/2 oz.) Fruits: Pineapple, apple, apricot, plum, prune, banana Cereals: Cornmeal, rice, hominy, Post Toasties, puffed rice, barley cereal Meats: Lamb, beef, mutton, lamb chops Vegetables: Fresh or canned asparagus, lettuce, string beans, white potatoes Breads: Ry-Krisp Butter: Substitute salted Crisco Fat: Pure olive oil. Flour: Substitute cornstarch, rice, rye, barley flours Miscellaneous: Karo syrup, unflavored gelatin, hard candy flavored with peppermint or wintergreen - no soft candy. Important: Supplementary synthetic vitamins should be added.
Environmental Control
In order to further provide for the prevention of eczema, the child's environment must be controlled.
a. The bedroom of the baby should be free of dust, feathers, fur, animal hair, fuzzy clothing, and silk.
b. The baby must wear cotton fabrics that have been washed with mild detergents (such as Calgon) and that have been rinsed out thoroughly. Woolen clothing (if unavoidable) should be lined with white cotton cloth.
ñ The use of regular soap is to be avoided; an alkali-free soap should be used on the baby's skin. His skin must never be scrubbed, but patted dry with clean towels, and open lesions on the skin should not be picked or scratched.
d. The baby must avoid excessive exposure to the sun by the use of sun-screening agents.
