What is atopic dermatitis? Where do we classify it? Is the disease hereditary?<\/p>

Atopic dermatitis is an autoimmune disease that can occur at any age. It is characterized by dry skin and itching, and is most commonly present in children. Deficiency of certain fatty acids in the skin causes a significant amount of water to be lost in the upper skin, leading to dry skin and itching. This makes the skin more stressed and consequently very susceptible to various infections. Distinct scratching and rubbing further aggravates the condition as it makes the skin more susceptible to infections with bacteria, fungi and parasites. It makes sense to visit your personal doctor as soon as possible, as the diagnosis of atopic dermatitis is not easy to make. It is even more difficult or more complicated to find the cause of the disease. However, treatment of the disease usually lasts a lifetime, as the disease is chronic. Formal medicine does not yet know the cure for the disease.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Symptoms<\/h2>

Symptoms most often appear in early childhood. In infants, rashes appear on the cheeks, neck and wrists, and in older children and adults, mainly on the elbows, knees and wrists, palms and fingers.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Diet and eating habits<\/h2>

In modern times, autoimmune diseases are on the rise. These diseases also include atopic dermatitis. Why? The reasons stem primarily from a genetically modified food (wheat, corn, etc.). Namely, in the old wheat \/ corn varieties from which most flour is made, it contained significantly lower amounts of gluten and similar molecules, but the yield of these varieties was relatively low. Nowadays, it is important for every grower to grow as much crop as possible on the smallest possible area. The old varieties did not provide this and it was necessary to develop and introduce new varieties (genetically modified, of course).<\/p>

So gluten is definitely the first thing to avoid as much as possible. Gluten from food can damage the intestinal wall... it definitely makes sense to increase the intake of good bacteria from the Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium genera (full-fat yoghurts and fermented dairy products (for example kefir and\/or plain EGO yoghurt also contain these two).<\/p>

Otherwise, the most common foods that trigger AD outbreaks include citrus fruits, milk and some dairy products, eggs, gluten-rich foods (wheat flour), soy, and tomatoes. Among the spices are vanilla, cinnamon, cloves, marjoram, thyme, mustard seeds). Some also cite fish and legumes.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
Buckwheat and corn do not contain gluten, but corn can be problematic because it is not an old variety and it makes sense to avoid it.<\/div>

If we want to test a paricular food, it is necessary to eliminate it from the diet for 3-4 weeks and monitor the symptoms or changes in the body. We then re-incorporate this food into the diet in larger quantities for 3-4 weeks and monitor the changes.<\/p>

Harmful food include mainly fatty foods, dairy products, white flour, sweets.<\/p>

Healthy food include essential fatty acids, vegetarian diet, probiotics, vitamin E. Essential fatty acids (e.g. linolenic acid) contain hemp, flaxseed, rapeseed and soybean oil. Large amounts of vitamin E are contained in spinach, broccoli, olives, almonds, hazelnuts, pistachios, avocados.<\/p>
