These two popular prescription skin screams for treating eczema were linked to increased risks of certain cancers close to a year ago. It certainly took the FDA long enough to finally get around to requiring black box cancer warnings on both drugs.

Folks, given the risks, it is beyond ludicrous to use these creams in the first place, especially when there are many safer dietary solutions -- that treat real cause of the problem.

If you suffer from eczema please consider the following highly effective strategies:

• Stop eating all wheat products.
• Use gamma linolenic acid, one of the few good omega-6 fats, as a supplement.
• Make the switch from pasteurized milk to raw milk, especially if you"re a mother who is breastfeeding. If you are unable to locate raw milk you would likely best be served by avoiding dairy completely to determine if that is the cause of the eczema.
• Take a high quality fish or cod liver oil daily.
• Get plenty of healthy sun exposure every day possible on exposed skin (see link below).
• Start a high quality probiotic (see link below)
