Today I want to share an interview with you that I had done back in January (which I haven’t had a chance to share yet!).

I have been really looking forward to sharing this interview with Tami Bronstein, who’s a UK-Qualified Medical Herbalist, because this is the first time that I’ve interviewed a practitioner with experience in using herbal medicine.

In today’s episode, you’ll get to hear Tami share about her experience in using herbal medicine to help patients with eczema. In particular, you’ll learn why the nervous system is so integral in treating eczema and how emotions play a role in the skin.

HERE ARE TOPICS THAT WE COVER IN TODAY’S EPISODE:

  • How the nervous system affects eczema
  • How acidity and alkalinity affects eczema
  • How the pH of your body affects eczema
  • How anxiety and nervousness affects pH, bowel function and eczema
  • Allergies and eczema (a hypersensitive response in your immune system)
  • Why you don’t want to overstimulate your immune system and nervous system
  • How medicinal herbs can regulate your body and not overstimulate it
  • Autoimmune and allergy link
  • Why gut flora can be out of balance due to pH level of your body
  • Why we need to look at food allergy triggers for eczema
  • Emotions and eczema

In this episode, I interview the naturopath who helped me in my journey to overcome severe eczema.

I feel so blessed to have met Dr. Jason because he’s really helped me in my journey (along with an incredible amount of people!). Patients fly in from all over US and Canada to meet him.

The great thing about him is that he can relate to people with eczema, because he, too, suffered from really severe eczema when he was younger. He’s even used steroids for 11 years! Today, he is a naturopath with a successful practice – especially when it comes to treating people with eczema and other skin issues.

 

WHAT WE COVER IN TODAY’S EPISODE:

  • Root causes of eczema and how you can deal with it
  • Why testing root causes of eczema are important
  • Why more children are getting eczema today

Today’s podcast interview is all about giving hope to eczema sufferers around the world.

In this episode, I had the privilege of connecting with Julie Block, the CEO of the National Eczema Association to learn more about why 2015 is a year of hope for those suffering with eczema.

As someone who used to suffer from such incredibly severe eczema for so long before, I felt so alone during the process and I can’t believe that I never looked into the National Eczema Association during my flare ups. To be honest, I had no idea what they did and what resources they had on hand for someone like me.

During the interview, I was so touched by Julie’s passion and care to help those suffering from eczema. It’s so great to know that a CEO invests so much in helping with eczema and really wants to help people overcome it! There’s nothing better than having someone lead an organization who really cares about it.

WHAT WE COVER IN TODAY’S EPISODE:

  • Why eczema sufferers should feel hopeful in the upcoming year
  • Resources that they offer children and adult eczema sufferers
  • Research that the National Eczema Association is conducting
  • Their views on topical steroid withdrawal (skip to 17:40 on the video if you want to listen to it)
  • Annual eczema conference
  • What they’re doing to help spread awareness about eczema
  • How they are supporting and helping people with eczema

If you already know what the National Eczema Association does, skip the first 3 minutes to hear about their upcoming initiatives this year and why eczema sufferers can feel hopeful this year.

If you’ve been following my podcasts – this was definitely one of my favourite interviews!

What’s great is that he’s passionate about finding safe, holistic treatments that work for eczema. The Chicago Integrative Eczema Center, which he helped to co-found, allows him to blend traditional medicine with alternative medicine (i.e. acupuncture) together.

Welcome to Episode #2 of The Eczema Podcast! (check out the first episode here, if you missed it)

I wanted to dedicate an episode to sea buckthorn because of the great things that I’ve heard about it. In fact, when I used to work at a health food store, people had come into the store asking for sea buckthorn because it had helped with their eczema.

In this episode, Jennifer Roberge, owner of The Eczema Company, shares on “How to Prepare for a Diet Change.” As you know, a lot of people who suffer from eczema end up changing their diet to help with the flare ups. Jennifer has gone through many diets with her son, Tristan, who has eczema.

She also understands what it’s like to have a husband go through the same diet change (and it’s not always easy having a significant other going through it, too!).

Listen to her tips and advice on how to prepare for a diet change (both physically, mentally, and emotionally) because her advice will come very helpful.
