@dr.finbar.skin: The gut–skin connection in eczema is real, but nuanced. A healthier, more diverse gut microbiome appears to support better immune balance, and certain probiotic strains have shown modest improvements in eczema severity in both adults and children, as well as some prevention benefit in early life. The catch is that probiotic effects are strain‑specific, and most off‑the‑shelf products haven’t been tested in eczema trials. That’s why probiotics should be a time‑limited experiment with a clear review point, layered on top of basics like fibre‑rich plants, fermented foods, fewer ultra‑processed foods and only using antibiotics when truly needed.
