I been suffering from eczema and always wondered why I was less itchy during sunny days. So did some Googling and found this:
Just one benefit of #sunlight for people with skin issues:
“Sunlight promotes healing of skin disorders, such as acne, psoriasis, eczema, jaundice and other fungal skin infections. In one study, for example, a four-week outdoor sunbathing therapy was successfully used to significantly clear symptoms of psoriasis in 84% of subjects.”
That's why they blocking the sun on us.. lol also have you tried all natural ingredient soaps and lotions. That might help a little
Yea been using bar soap only now. Much better.
Seems flare up when I eat something I shouldn’t. Kinda the reason I’m only eat meat now.
Of course when I saw the doctor about it many years ago. I was told try this steroid cream and only made it worse. Never mentioned changing your diet or getting more sunshine on your skin.
One of our kids had eczema before we went travelling.
Cleared up completely within a few weeks of sun and saltwater and stayed away for years.
Returned from traveling recently and it was back within a few weeks.
There's a moral there somewhere; packing bags again now. 😂
Very interesting. Maybe skin issues are really just some kind of vitamin d deficiency or body inability to produce vitamin d effectively.
I didn’t read the article but I wonder if it’s a vitamin D deficiency rather than the sun itself
Yeh it could be.
Good article. I have suffering with psoriasis since I was a teen. I'm trying to heal naturally from within, but sunlight is something I neglect to prioritise. Thanks for sharing
I was the same. Being a ginger I usually just burn if I over expose myself to the sun.
Now I've eradicated seed oils, I'm slowly moving towards no sunscreen too
Every year when I travel to Thailand from the UK, my psoriasis cleans up 90% within four weeks of 30 degrees c. I'd say I eat worse there too as nothing is organic, beef is lower on the agenda to what's on offer locally and the pollution is horrendous I'm comparison to the UK.
#sunlight fixes a lot of things.
Thanks for sharing. Yeh I am just surprised how effective it is as treatment according to that mat study. You will never hear a doctor tell a patient spend more time outside.
