Gerritt Posted December 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Moosebunk thank you for your reply... Yes my son has been diagnosed with eczema he is seeing both a Dermatologist and a doctor that specializes in adolescent allergies. My son has been prescribed more creams and more antibiotics then I can even begin to count... problem is they have little lasting effect.. and he too young for the majority of the drugs available to help him cope.. we all hope he will grow out of this and is just a stage but we have to be prepared that it just might not be temporary.. He also suffers from severe food allergies, Wheat, Eggs, Dairy Products, Soy, Legumes... and all the by products of the above... try and go to your Grocery store and purchase something without the above ingredients... it is difficult.. he carries around Epipen just incase... He sees a nutritionist to make sure he is growing properly sand getting the nourishment he requires from the foods were are able to feed him. He is doing well in this regard as I am spend a small fortune on specialty foods from specialty shops to cater to his needs. he eats alot of Organic veggies and fruits.. and his protein comes in the form of certified organic Meats etc.. Turkey, Rabbit, Lamb and wild game are all considered less allergic compared to other meats I never thought I would know as much as I do about foods and nutrition and food ingredients and that stuff you cant pronounce on food labels....but I had no choice but to receive a crash course and the good thing.... I have lost 20lbs myself by eating better Just a small synopsis on my little mans experiances in life Gerritt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moosebunk Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Melaluca (sp) is a newer organic thing being put into some creams coming out of Australia. It's harmless, like aloe. Look into it more if you like. It helped very much with two very pale white kids up here. Your boy is a cute lad, great Xmas pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
