Anyone who's had eczema knows that it's one tough habit to kick. It's paid me visits since I was a baby: On my arms as a toddler, on 2 fingers during high school (friends/family kindly named them my "fungus fingers."), and now, it pops up whenever I wear certain jewelry (nickel allergy, I think), or, of course, completely randomly. Hydrocortisone has worked as a quick fix, though in highschool I went to bed wearing a petroleum cream beneath white gloves. But, a recent release on The Open Press is touting the benefits of taking Niacin to treat eczema. Here's what it says: "Niacin, also known as Vitamin B3, nicotinamide or nicotinic acid, is a water soluble vitamin that is crucial for metabolism and maintaining normal function of the skin, nerves and digestive system. While niacin is not commonly thought of as a skin care remedy, it may actually do more for you than any of the ‘magic’ ingredients currently promoted. Severe niacin deficiency causes pellagra – the symptoms of which include dry skin and inflammation accompanied by weight loss, diarrhea, and general weakness – but even a mild deficiency can cause very dry skin and eczema. In fact, niacin supplementation is often recommended for someone undergoing eczema treatment. It is inexpensive, readily available and will improve your overall health as well as your skin."
