Eczema – Foods to Avoid

For eczemas, there are plenty type of foods that can lead the rashes become worst. Istilah bahasa, Pemangkin. Bila makan saja, ruam jadi merah menyala, gatal merenyam satu badan. As a parent, it’s a heartbreak situation for us when your love one is in uncomfortable condition like this. Hati manyak sedih ma =(

Since Nuha still breastfeed, so I pun kena berpantang makan jugak. Sometimes, I terbabas & langgar pantang. Heeee… sorry Nuha. Nanti ayah babab mama tu. Orang dah cakap jangan, tapi dia dogil. Hehehe.

Based on my case study, I categorise the foods into 3level, severe, moderate & mild.

Severe – most worst impact, ruam merah menyala, gatal yang amat. If I take the food, confirm Nuha menggaru non stop. Kesian dia.
Moderate – ruam pink kaler, gatal sikit-sikit
Mild – almost takde ruam, gatal main-main je...heheee

Selama I buat experiment ni Nuha la bahan ujikajinya. Ngehehe ^.^ If I’m doing a thesis, title of the case study will be something like this – Tahap kesan pengambilan makanan alergik terhadap bayi Eczema. Excuse me of verangan jadi Paediatrician tak bertauliah di sini. hehehe =p

Ok. Here goes the list:

1. Dairy Products eg:- Milk, Chocolate, Butter, Cookies, Yogurt – Severe.
2. Meat – Severe
3. Seafood (All kind of seafood) – Severe.
4. Ikan Bilis / Ikan yang boleh menyebabkan gatal eg:- Ikan kembung – Severe
5. Peanut (Kacang Tanah) - Severe
6. Egg – Moderate, play safe – telur ayam kampong, insyallah no harm effect
7. Nuts & Beans eg:- Almond, Hazelnut, Green Pea – Moderate
8. Chicken – Moderate – again, choose ayam organic or ayam kampong.
9. Cabbage - Moderate
10. Soy – Mild
11. Wheat – Mild
12. Sweet Corn – Mild
13. Tomato – Mild
14. Onion – Mild
15. Spices – Mild
16. Fruits (Buah yang ada bulu eg:- Kiwi) – Mild

If there any foods I miss out here please let me know mommies… Kot-kot la ada benda yang selama ni I belasah je makan, rupanya trigger food for eczemas… oh..Noooooo >0

Disclaimer: I’m not a cruel mother who wants her baby suffer. I only try these foods once. Like this month I try, the result tak ok, then 2months later I give another try. The reason I did it? I want to know either Nuha still allergic to that food or not. I didn’t introduce Nuha direct with the food. Normally I myself eat the food & the result will show 12hours after consuming the food (thru breastmilk). Sekian, terima kasih =)
