Any eczema sufferers?

I developed eczema later in life and have found that taking Apple Cider Vinegar (I use Bragg's, but I'm sure any ACV that still has the "Mother" in it will do.) has been a great help. I take 2 tablespoons in the morning and 2 in the evening, diluted in my drinking water. The ACV should be cloudy and should fizz when you shake it.
I also use coconut oil all the time. I have a couple teaspoons in the morning, and have a separate container of the stuff that I use for my skin. When I get out of the shower, I rub some coconut oil on the affected areas--I use it for makeup removal...it's some handy stuff, and it doesn't cause my flare-ups to be worsened by dyes and perfumes (one of my triggers)
Hope this helps!0
