We know that approximately 10% of the American population experiences eczema and that rates of eczema among children are even higher (with up to 20% of children affected.) Such childhood numbers are particularly concerning because research and experts note that children, adolescents, and young adults with eczema often feel isolated from their peers. Worse, one in four children with eczema experiences bullying.
Research increasingly supports the use of certain combinations of probiotic strains, like those in Florajen® Eczema, to help improve eczema symptoms, particularly in children.
In a clinical study, these probiotics were shown to:
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria taken in the form of supplements or food that can help stimulate the growth of “good” or helpful microorganism colonies in our bodies. They aim to bolster the beneficial bacteria in the human microbiome towards a natural balance.
Although it’s not entirely understood why, certain skin conditions and allergic responses can be linked to shifts in the microbiome as part of what’s called the gut-skin axis.2,4, 5 For example, researchers have found that people with eczema often have different bacteria in their GI systems compared to those without eczema. Along these lines, specific blends of “good” bacteria, experts say, can help improve eczema symptoms because there seems to be a connection between beneficial microbes in the gastrointestinal system, the regulation of inflammation and allergic responses and the skin.
While there is still more to learn about the influence microbes have on skin wellness and barrier function, there’s strong data 1,2,3 supporting the use of the carefully selected probiotic strains in Florajen® Eczema to help manage eczema, especially in children.
