The debilitation and pain caused by eczema affects over 250 million people worldwide, spans across all age groups and nations, and is expanding in an exponential scale. Originated in the 1950s, the use of steroid therapy in managing eczema until today remains unchanged despite the surge of prevalence. This invites the question, why has our current understanding of medicine in diagnosing, treating, and reversing eczema fail to live up to expectations? But perhaps the better question is, how can we integrate existing established nutrition-based healthcare strategies with the abundance of patient-generated evidence into effective eczema recovery guidelines, adjustable for individual differences? The Eczema Manual intends to connect the dots and prompts you on a proactive, not reactive, approach in eliminating eczema. Styled into concise yet insightful chapters, backed with relevant research literature, this guide cuts to the chase and brings you actionable recommendations -- eczema recovery starts now!
