Karen or Bonnie,
I have read in one of Karen's books about not using skin products & eating the same, such as, pwehaps eating oats & using a collodial oatmeal moisturiser as it may likely cause a reaction on the skin. I have noticed that in Skin Friends 24hr rescue there is apricot kernel oil, does that mean not to consume apricots in any form. Also Eczema Friend has mango butter & Wonder Zinc has Kakudu Plum.
Dear Bonnie,
When Karen says continue with medications while on the eczema diet, what meds is she talking about?
- Is black seed oil every morning after breakfast a medication I should continue?
Which of Karen's books are available to advanced memebers?
Where is the link to them?
Hi Gladys,
Karen's books aren't included as part of the Membership, so you won't find them inside the members' area.
If you'd like to purchase any of her books, you can find them on SkinFriend.com.
This recipe is fascinating: https://www.eczemadiet.com/post/turmeric-latte
Do you have any articles on the science of obtaining optimal nutritional absorbtion of am and pm supplements with temperature variables? ie whether the supplements are taken hot vs cold vs boiled
Hi Gladys 😊
When Karen says to continue with your medications while on the Eczema Diet, she's referring to any medications that have been prescribed by your doctor. We don't recommend stopping prescribed medications when starting the program unless your doctor advises you to do so.
Black seed oil isn't considered a prescribed medication, so if you're doing the FID Program, we generally recommend keeping supplements to those included in the program where possible, as introducing additional supplements can make it harder to identify triggers.
I hope that helps and please let me know if you have any further questions! Bonnie
