Rash

Overview

A rash is an eruption of the skin that is usually temporary.

Symptoms

The eruptions are typically spots on the skin or areas of redness and inflammation.

Although most rashes are not symptoms of a serious health problem, they can be signs of allergies, liver and gallbladder problems, lupus, bleeding disorders, nutritional deficiencies, and autoimmune diseases.

Rashes can also be due to the elimination of toxic wastes through the skin, or of an active immune reaction to an invading organism. Suppression of such a rash can lead to chronic disease states. Rather than try to suppress the rash, in such cases watchful waiting may be more advisable.

Caution: If your rash becomes chronic, forms a “butterfly” shape over your cheeks, or is accompanied by high fever and joint pains, seek immediate medical attention to rule out more serious illnesses.

Some common, non-infectious rashes are listed below:

Seborrheic Dermatitis: The single most common rash affecting adults, Seborrheic dermatitis produces a red, scaling eruption that characteristically affects the scalp, forehead, brows, cheeks, and external ears.

Contact Dermatitis: A rash that is brought on either by contact with a specific chemical to which the patient is uniquely allergic or with a substance that directly irritates the skin, some chemicals are both irritants and allergens to contact dermatitis. This rash can also occasionally be weepy and oozy, and affects the parts of the skin which have come in direct contact with the offending substance.

Diaper Rash: This is a common type of contact dermatitis that occurs in many infants who wear diapers when faeces and urine are in contact with skin for too long.

Diet

When it comes to diet, it is very important to avoid eating toxins and. Your diet should contain foods that heal, unrefined salt, vegetable juices, fats that heat and fruits.

Certain rashes react rather violently to the intake of eggs or chicken products. To avoid the possible aggravation of the rashes, it would be best to avoid these foods for the duration of the rash treatment.
Screen for and eliminate any foods to which you are allergic or sensitive. Eat an organic, whole foods diet, with plenty of green leafy vegetables and yellow vegetables such as carrots, pumpkin, sweet potatoes, and winter squash. Also drink plenty of pure, filtered water, and avoid all processed foods and chemical food additives.

It is important to not add further toxicity to your system so try to adhere to the following:

Do not consume any artificial sweeteners, such as Splenda, NutraSweet or Aspartame

Do not consume high fructose corn syrup or mono-sodium glutamate.

Do not drink any carbonated beverages.

Avoid all fast food restaurants.

Avoid all canned food.

Eliminate conventional dairy products. The best dairy products are raw, unpasteurised and homogenised dairy from grass fed cows. If this is unavailable, then buy organic dairy.

Avoid conventional beef. The best beef is organic grass fed beef. www.grasslandbeef.com The second best is organic meat; this includes beef, veal, lamb, chicken and turkey.

Supplements:

Rashes can be caused due to a deficiency of some essential fatty acids from the diet. Essential fatty acids as such abound in the oil of many herbs, especially in the oil sourced from evening primrose.

Health in the skin is also promoted by classes of other substances such as the vitamins A and E and related compounds like the beta-carotene, abundant in carotene rich plants.

The following nutrients can be helpful to speed healing: vitamin A and vitamin E (both orally and applied topically over the affected areas), vitamin C, essential fatty acids (EFAs), flaxseed oil, and amma linolenic acid (GLA). In addition, add half a teaspoon of baking soda to water and drink every fifteen minutes. Do this three times, and then every two to three hours for two to three days or until the reaction subsides.

Take Vitamin D3 50,000-100,000 International Units a day for periods of 4 weeks at a time.
Wholefood supplements are the best way of ensuring your nutritional needs are met. The best we know on the market is Kevin Trudeau’s “KT Daily” product. You can find more details here.
