One of the most effective baby eczema treatments I’ve personally used is using Certified Organic Shea Butter as an eczema moisturizer. Certified Organic Shea Butter is loaded with the healthy skin nourishing vitamins A, E, and F. These 3 vitamins have been proven to improve many harsh skin conditions that millions face each day. Certified Organic Shea Butter, specifically,  has been used and seen to be a highly effective treatment for eczema, burns, psoriasis, rashes, severely dry skin, stretchmarks, wrinkles, and more. But from my personal experience it help lessen the irritation of my child’s skin, kept my baby’s skin very moisturized, and seem to enhance the healing process when my child was recovering from bad eczema breakouts.

Driven by curiosity, I did more research into the benefits of certified organic shear butter and here is what I’ve found. Shea Butter Benefits include:

• Help control eczema flare ups
• Helps heal minor burns
• Offers sun and wind protection
• Reduces blemishes and scarring
• Helps prevent stretch marks during pregnancy
• Reduces razor irritati0n
• Helps eliminate scalp irritation due to dryness or chemical processing
• Soften tough skin
• Helps even skin tone

As you can see from the benefits, certified organic shea butter is widely used not only on children, but on adults as well. But like every eczema treatment there are some draw backs. One of biggest warnings on using shea butter is that it is not recommend for use to people who have major allergic reactions to nuts. But like always, consult your doctor or your child’s pediatrician before trying any type of eczema treatment on your child.

Warning! Remember to be careful with Bleach around your young ones because most bleaches are hazardous if ingested or inhaled. Also consult your child pediatrician before attemping to treat your child’s eczema with any form of eczema treatments.

I was truly skeptical of this bleach bath treatment at first but the more I researched on the topic, the more credible the claims came to be.  First of all these studies were performed on patients with moderate to extreme cases of eczema. The range of these patient were from 6 months to 17 years of age. At the end of these studies, scientist were able to come up with a simple basic plan that would allow patients with moderate to extreme case of eczema to take advantage of bleach baths. Here is a plan as follows:

• Bleach Bath should be taken twice a week.
• Add 1/2 cup of bleach for every 40 gallons (U.S) of water.
• Immerse limbs and torsos, leaving the neck and head above water, for five to 10 minutes. Do not swallow the bath water!
• Pat body dry. Do not rub yourself dry due to the risk of scatching open sores which can lead to nasty infections.
• Apply a heavy coat of moisturizer on to skin.

Very simple plan that can produce very effect results.

Now if you are into more natural treatments as I am, a known and common substitute for bleach is lemon. You can find a list of using lemon as an alternative here.
