elimination diets<\/a>. The main foods you should avoid are as follows.<\/p>\n\n\n\nEggs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n Aside from being eczema triggers, eggs often worsen most skin conditions. People who have allergic reactions to eggs develop increased histamine levels, increasing redness on the skin or triggering skin rashes.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nProcessed Foods\/Junk Foods<\/h3>\n\n\n\n Put the fries and chicken strips down, and don\u2019t even think about touching that bag of chips or cookies. Processed foods and junk foods are typically rich in artificial preservatives, flavors, and dyes, all of which can weaken the stomach lining and lead to inflammation, increasing the risk of an eczema flare up.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nCertain Fruits<\/h3>\n\n\n\n While it is encouraged to consume fresh fruits and vegetables, specific fruits can trigger reactions based on their salicylate content or amines. The following fruits can sometimes disrupt the chemical balance in people with sensitive systems, leading to itchy symptoms.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nKiwi<\/li>\n\n\n\n Oranges<\/li>\n\n\n\n Tomatoes<\/li>\n\n\n\n Grapes<\/li>\n\n\n\n Avocados<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\nFoods Containing Nickel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n People who have dyshidrotic eczema, which commonly affects the hands and feet, are encouraged to avoid foods that contain nickel<\/strong>. Depending on where the foods are grown, the soil can contain trace amounts of nickel, which gets absorbed into the food. Foods that contain nickel include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\nBlack Tea<\/li>\n\n\n\n Nuts<\/li>\n\n\n\n Lentils<\/li>\n\n\n\n Peas<\/li>\n\n\n\n Shellfish<\/li>\n\n\n\n Soy<\/li>\n\n\n\n Chocolate<\/li>\n\n\n\n Beans<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n
