Hullo!
Does anyone have tips for mending skin after shingles?
I’ll be using 24hour rescue when it’s calmed a bit more and AM supplement.
Are there any foods I can gobble down which might specifically help, I can take limited high salicylates and amines, so there is some flexibility. Has anyone else had this experience?
Any help really appreciated. Thanks in advance.

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?

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

I started taking Skinfriend AM about 3-4 weeks ago, gradually increasing the dose each morning, and for the last 1-2 weeks I've been on a 3g dose. Lately, I've been experiencing more frequent heartburn and severe bloating accompanied by nausea.
I've been sprinkling the 3g over my breakfast (warm rice porridge) and, in the last few days, splitting the dose into two 1.5g doses, one in the morning and one at midday, but the symptoms haven't improved.
I suspect I'm reacting to glycine, as I tested glycine on its own some time ago and had a similar reaction. What can I do now, or how can I still provide my body with the essential nutrients?

Crunchy snack idea for all you Eczema Warriors!
If celery sticks just aren’t cutting it, these Gluten-Free Chickpea Crackers are the perfect eczema-friendly alternative. They’re crispy, easy to make, budget-friendly, and even picky kids approve (tested by a 4-year-old! ).
Perfect for lunchboxes, picnics, or keeping in your bag so you’ve always got a safe snack on hand. Pair them with sesame-free hummus or carrot hummus for extra yum.
Grab the recipe here: https://www.eczemadiet.com/post/gluten-free-chickpea-crackers
Trust me… once you make these, you’ll want them on repeat!

Dear Support Team,
Are you aware that brown rice can cause a severe salicylate intolerance?
In Kszycka's 2017 study, brown rice is classified as having a high salicylate content.
I had previously used white rice, but switched to brown rice due to Candida and now eat it almost three times a day. I've noticed a severe burning sensation in my mouth and itching all over my body.
Could it be that I'm also allergic to the rice bran oil, which I've been using as well?

Dear Support Team, is there a difference in how well the white part of the leek is tolerated compared to the green/dark green part?
I've only been using the dark green part for the past couple of days, as it's lower in FODMAPs.
When it comes to lettuce, I have read that you shouldn't eat the outside leaves. Why is that? On a low SAM diet would it be suitable to eat the outer leaves after cooking?

Dear Support Team, I wanted to ask if brown millet is allowed in the FID diet?
Hi Matthias, thanks for your post! Yes, brown millet is safe on the FID program ☺️
You said here "Foods can shift between “low,” “medium,” or “high” classifications depending on the portion amount assessed". That's probably why basil and ginger which are high in salicylates are on the eczema diet shopping list.
