Children are born with a predominant Th2 branch of the immune system which predisposes them to allergic reactions like eczema. And then as they mature, the Th1 branch should become more predominant. Vaccines suppress the Th1 branch and make the Th2 branch more dominant. I'd avoid vaccines and don't introduce any grains until after 1 year old. They are hard to digest. My EBF daughter had eczema as a newborn and it 99% vanished by the time she was 9 months old and the little bit of it left over then vanished a few months later. She's been clear of it for well over a year and she eats everything now and is almost 2 and we're still breastfeeding. She's unvaccinated and never had any antibiotics, so I think that helps too. I also had her on cod liver oil since she was 5 months old. I eliminated common allergens (dairy, gluten, eggs, and I already avoid soy and some other items that dowsing told me to avoid) from my diet for 2 months when she was 5 to 7 months old and it didn't help at all. I do believe in dowsing for indicating foods that are ok and not ok to eat but I just didn't notice any improvement with her eczema. When I started drinking raw cow's milk again when she was 8 months old, her eczema got better and then vanished. Within a few months I was back to eating all the foods that I was avoiding and she remained fine. I don't know if its right but my personal theory is that her eczema was linked to my heavy metal toxicity because I had a hair elements test done and I have elevated levels of cadmium, aluminum, lead, arsenic, tin and although mercury wasn't showing as high, I used to have 8 mercury amalgams in my mouth for 10-15 years of my life, but had them removed a few years ago.
