In this video, we’re going to talk about why cod liver oil can help you if you have eczema.

Eczema is a condition where you have red, scaly, flaky, or rashy skin. This condition is also known as atopic dermatitis. Psoriasis is a part of the same family as eczema.

Cod liver oil is the best remedy for nearly all skin conditions—especially eczema.

Cod liver oil contains three powerful nutrients:

1. Omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA)

2. Vitamin A

3. Vitamin D

One common symptom of low vitamin A is follicular hyperkeratosis. This is a condition where you have small brown or red hair follicles on your arms and/or back. Another symptom of low vitamin A is xerosis. This is when you have dried-out skin with fine wrinkles or a scaly appearance.

Vitamin A has a lot to do with the integrity of your skin—so it’s vital that you get plenty of it for your skin health.

Vitamin D is also vital for your skin health—especially psoriasis. Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition. Vitamin D is fantastic for all autoimmune problems. Vitamin D acts as a powerful anti-inflammatory—it’s like cortisol, but without the side effects.

Low levels of Omega-3 essential fatty acids can cause eczema. It’s important to increase your omega-3s and lower your omega-6s.

Cod liver oil is rich in all of these important nutrients for your skin.

Many people on keto consume a lot of coconut oil and butter, which is great. However, these do not contain the omega-3s you need. You need to consume sardines, salmon, or cod liver oil to get your omega-3s.
