Compliance problems in the dietary management of eczema

Compliance problems in the dietary management of eczema

M J Hathaway et al. Arch Dis Child. 1983 Jun.

Abstract

We have reviewed the progress of 40 children with severe eczema associated with food intolerance. Even with highly motivated parents and patients the emotional and financial burdens resulted in many finding the diets impossible to maintain. Three of 14 children (21%) under 3 years of age, and 12 of 26 children (46%) over 3 years gave up diets, with a subsequent relapse of their eczema.
