Diet for allergic dermatitis

An allergic reaction of the body can occur in response to the influence of various factors. One of the fundamental points of treatment is a change in diet. Diet for allergic dermatitis helps relieve acute symptoms and cleanse the skin from allergic rashes.



Information on the disease



In allergic dermatitis, the immune system reacts acutely to irritants in contact with the skin. An allergic reaction can cause some medicines, perfumes, cosmetics, metals, paints, polymers (artificial, natural), industrial products, plants, etc. With this pathology, the allergen, in contact with the skin, affects the entire body, increases sensitivity to the effects of irritants. The cause of the disease, as a rule, can be identified far from immediately - several days may pass between contact with the allergen and the manifestation of the clinical picture.

The main symptoms of dermatitis: redness and swelling of the body area, the appearance of a rash (part of the microvesicles bursts, which provokes the formation of wet areas). The spots have no clear outlines. With subsequent exposure to the allergen, dermatitis can develop into eczema. In order not to aggravate the problems, the patient is strongly advised to review the diet and exclude possible food allergens.







Nutrition recommendations

During the diet, you should abandon the use of the following products:
