As dermatitis may appear due to varied causes, treatment also varies accordingly. If, however, the trouble is constitutional arising from internal causes, the patient should commence the treatment by adopting an all-fruit diet for a least a week, as in the case of acne. After an exclusive fruit diet the, you may adopt a restricted diet for 10 days. In this regiment, breakfast may consist of orange or orange juice or grapefruit. Raw salad, consisting of vegetables in season, with raisins, figs, or dates may be taken for lunch. Dinner may consist of steamed vegetables such as spinach, cabbage, carrots, turnips, cauliflower along with a few nuts or fresh fruit. Milk puddings and desserts such as jellies, jam and pastries, all condiments, spices, white sugar and white flour and products made from them, tea, coffee, and other stimulating drinks should be avoided.
After the restricted diet, you should gradually embark upon a well-balanced diet, consisting of seeds, nuts and grains, vegetables and fruits. The emphasis should be on fresh fruits and raw vegetables. In case of a severe condition, you should undertake a fast having only fruit or vegetable juice for three to five days. This may be followed by a restricted diet for 10 to 15 days. Further fasts and a period of restricted diet at intervals may be adopted after the resumption of a normal diet.
The warm water enema should be used to cleanse the bowels during the first week of the treatment and thereafter as necessary. Epsom salt bath may be taken two or three times a week. The affected areas may also be bathed twice daily in hot water with Epsom salts. About 100g of Epsom salts should be added to a bowel of hot water for this purpose. A little olive oil should be applied after the Epsom salt bath.
You should avoid white sugar, refined carbohydrates, tea, coffee and other denatured foods, and should make liberal use of fruit and vegetable juices. The combined juice of the apple, carrot and celery is especially beneficial in the treatment of dermatitis. About 175ml each of these juices should be mixed to prepare 525ml of combined juice.
In case of trouble due to external causes, the most effective treatment consists of applying a mixture of baking soda (bicarbonate of sode0 and olive oil. The alkaline sodium neutralizes the poisonous acids formed in the sores and the oil keeps the skin in a softened condition.
You should undertake moderate physical exercise, preferably simple yoga asana after the fast is completed and the restricted diet started. Exercise is one of the most valuable means for purifying the blood and for preventing toxemia. You should also have adequate physical and mental rest and fresh air. You should avoid exposure to cold and adopt regular hours of eating and sleeping.
