(Medical-NewsWire.com, February 04, 2015 ) Portland, Oregon -- Eczema is a skin condition that can cause a lot of discomfort and embarrassment to sufferers. Many individuals have already exhausted remedies such as lotions, drugs and creams just to manage the condition. Yet is can be difficult for sufferers to find a long-term solution to the problem.
More studies are now focusing on the applications of turmeric for eczema sufferers. This ancient spice has been used for thousands of years as a natural remedy for a wide variety of conditions including certain skin diseases.
"Many eczema sufferers are already using the spice. According to these sufferers, turmeric has provided them with relief from the redness and itchiness commonly associated with the condition. Some even claim that the spice works better than certain lotions and creams," said VitaBreeze Supplements spokesperson, Michelle O'Sullivan.
According to studies, turmeric contains an active ingredient known as curcumin that has anti-inflammatory and bactericidal properties. These therapeutic properties are believed to have the capacity to reduce the production of enzymes that cause inflammation. Many types of eczema are closely associated with inflammation.
In a study published by the Journals of Drugs in Dermatology, it was found that turmeric was very helpful in helping sufferers manage eczema. The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of the spice are believed to be responsible for the reduction in inflammation, as well as providing other skin health benefits.
"Turmeric powder is often used as a major ingredient to make a paste. Eczema sufferers then apply the paste onto the affected areas to achieve relief from itching," added O'Sullivan.
Turmeric was also found to be effective in speeding up the healing of wounds and improving skin circulation. Nutritionist and author of "Prescription for Nutritional Wellness", Phyllis Balch, believes that turmeric is very effective in improving conditions associated with inflammation, including arthritis and eczema.
As studies about the effects of turmeric on skin conditions continue to increase, many eczema sufferers are already using the spice. Many stated that they were more comfortable using turmeric due to the fact that it is all-natural and does not contain chemicals like creams and lotions do (http://www.amazon.com/Turmeric-Curcumin-Complex-BioPerine-Bio-availability/dp/B00JA4TLTI).
