He or she may also suggest that you do the following.

Food Therapies

Avoid foods you are allergic to. Common allergenic foods are dairy products, soy, citrus, peanuts, wheat, fish, eggs, corn, and tomatoes. A rotation diet, in which the same food is not eaten more than once every four days, may be helpful in treating chronic eczema. Eat fewer foods that cause inflammation, such as saturated fats (meats, especially poultry, and dairy), refined foods, and sugar.

Increase intake of fresh vegetables, whole grains, and essential fatty acids (cold-water fish, nuts, and seeds). Flaxseed (3,000 mg twice a day), borage (1,500 mg twice a day), or evening primrose oil (1,500 mg twice a day) to reduce swelling. Children can be supplemented with cod liver oil (1/2 to 1 tsp. per day), or any of the above oils, 500 mg, twice a day.

Beta-carotene (25,000 to 100,000 IU/day), zinc (10 to 30 mg per day), and vitamin E (100 to 400 IU per day) to strengthen your immune system and help your skin heal. Zinc spray can heal the affected tissue in some patients.

Vitamin C (250 to 500 mg two times per day) reduces your body's reponse to substances that cause allergies. Vitamin C from rose hips or palmitate is citrus-free and hypoallergenic.

Selenium (50 to 200 mcg per day) helps regulate fatty acid metabolism and keeps your liver healthy.

Bromelain (250 mg two to four times per day, taken between meals) reduces swelling.

Flavonoids, found in dark berries and some plants, help reduce swelling, strengthen connective tissue, and help reduce allergic reactions. Catechin (25 to 150 mg two to three times per day), quercetin (100 to 250 mg two to three times per day), hesperidin (100 to 250 mg two to three times per day), and rutin (100 to 250 mg two to three times per day). Rose hips (Rosa canina) are also high in flavonoids and may be used as a tea. Drink 3 to 4 cups per day.

Herbs For Skin

Herbs may be used as dried extracts (capsules, powders, teas), glycerites (glycerine extracts), or tinctures (alcohol extracts).

Herbs that help your skin heal and increase lymphatic drainage are useful for relieving eczema. Use the following herbs in combination as a tincture (15 to 30 drops three times per day) or tea (2 to 4 cups per day): burdock root (Arctium lappa), yellowdock (Rumex crispus), red clover (Trifolium pratense), cleavers (Galium aparine), yarrow (Achillea millefolium), peppermint (Mentha piperita), and nettles (Urtica dioica). To prepare a tea, steep the root elements for 10 minutes, then add the rest of the herbs and steep an additional 5 to 10 minutes.

Skin creams and salves containing one or more of the following herbs may help relieve itching and burning, and promote healing: chickweed (Stellaria media), marigold (Calendula officinalis), comfrey (Symphytum officinale), and chamomile (Matricaria recutita).

Marshmallow root tea (Althea officinalis) may soothe and promote healing of gastrointestinal inflammation that is often found with eczema. Soak 1 heaping tbsp. of marshmallow root in 1 quart of cold water overnight. Strain and drink throughout the day.

DERMATEND WILL WORK FOR YOU TOO!

Dermatend's Mole Remedy Is Available "Over-The-Counter"

Boy, I have to admit. I thought Cindy Crawford's mole made her more attractive. Of course, I also had a mole on my face, so I considered it attractive too; but then, it started to grow. It got darker, and bigger, and then the stupid thing started growing a hair out of it, so I went to the doctor to see what was going on. The derm said, "the mole wasn't cancerous, and she could remove the mole that day for a $300 fee." Money was a bit tight that week, so I told her I would wait and come back.

I kinda forgot about it until I heard on Yahoo that Jessica Parker removed her mole, and then Enrique Iglesias removed his mole, and I thought, that's it, I am removing my mole too.

I was on Facebook talking to some people who went though mole removal surgery, and learned that it was not that successful. Someone pointed me to a new mole removal cream that came with a money-back guarantee. I ordered some, and believe it or not, IT WORKED!

It took about four days for the mole to fall off, and three more days for the skin to heal; by the way, thanks for the free antibiotic included in the package.

Finally I just want to say, thank you for everything. I look great, and my "sexy" mole is no more.
