Practical Strategies for Supporting Pediatric and Adult Eczema: The Skin and Gut Microbiomes

Naturopathic Webinar 69

with Dr. Jessica Maloh, ND

NW69: Practical Strategies for Supporting Pediatric and Adult Eczema: The Skin and Gut Microbiomes

Eczema is a multifactorial, chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects both pediatric and adult populations. While conventional treatments like topical corticosteroids remain helpful tools, there is increasing evidence for integrative strategies that address underlying microbiome imbalances in both the skin and gut.

This presentation will explore the shifts in the skin microbiome during flares and relative to healthy skin and examine the link between gut dysbiosis and eczema.

After a brief overview on this microbiome-related pathophysiology, this session will move to emphasize practical, evidence-based interventions. Attendees will gain clinical tools to support the skin barrier through topical ingredients and lifestyle interventions known to support the skin microbiome and decrease the severity of itch and eczema. To address gut health, a special focus will be given to dysbiosis observed at the level of the gut, and the role of various supplements and dietary recommendations to address dysbiosis and improve skin outcomes in patients with eczema.
