Eczema’s link to asthma uncovered
I read interesting article about a connection between eczema and asthma (link is below). I remember when I was having trouble with allergies, eczema and asthma, I was very weak and got sick every 3 months. It was not a pleasant time.
My doctor gave me strong cortisol medication to stop itchiness, and an inhaler for the asthma. He basically ignored the cause of my trouble and suppressed it with drugs. So my health continued to suffer.
Then I started seeing a naturopath, to heal and educate myself (he’s a man who can fix anything- I love him). Interestingly all my troubles were interconnected.
After a blood test he found that I had an allergy to the animals I spent so much time with. He talked to me about how to change my lifestyle and I started to feel a positive change. It took two years to get better only because I did not want to give up my animals.
Now I’m healed and understand my own body needs.

Anne’s son is allergic
It was at the green expo GREX 07 that I met Anne and her 7-year-old son. She was reading our Miessence product labels very carefully, and asked questions like, ‘How do you preserve these products? Do you have any chemicals or synthetic ingredients? Can I see all the ingredients used?’
She told me that her son reacted very badly to any synthetics products, getting asthma and itchy red skin. She also told me about a website for allergy sufferers- see here.
Anne bought some of our products because they are free of chemicals and toxins. A couple of weeks later she emailed me that all was well with her son’s skin. And she said she too was using the products and loving them. Great isn’t it? A happy boy free of itchiness … See the products
When you or your loved ones have any allergy, itchiness or redness, note what happened in the previous 48 hours:
- What you have been eating
- What you have been drinking
- What you have put on your skin
- Where have you been.
From my own experience with itchiness it helps to:
- Have a cold shower or bath
- Wrap up in a cold, wet bed sheet.
Please note this is only my own experience. Consult your naturopath or doctor.
