Eczema is a common skin condition that can lead to other allergic conditions. If you’re searching for probiotics with proven benefits for eczema, keep reading to discover how Duoflora can make a difference.
Understanding Eczema: A Skin Condition with Far-reaching Effects
Atopic dermatitis, more commonly known as eczema, is a chronic condition that affects up to 20% of children. It causes inflamed, itchy patches of skin and can be triggered by genetics, allergens, and environmental factors. 
Eczema often looks different depending on skin tone, but the discomfort is universal.
Once diagnosed, children with eczema are at risk of developing other allergic conditions, in a process known as the “Atopic March”. This means eczema can be the first sign of an increased likelihood of allergies, such as food allergies, allergic rhinitis, and asthma.
Eczema often starts in infancy, typically affecting the face and extensor areas, like elbows and knees. As children grow, eczema may spread to other areas, including the creases of the elbows, behind the knees, and around the ankles.
Managing eczema usually requires a comprehensive approach, including proper skin care and trigger avoidance. However, emerging research suggests that probiotics can play an important role in providing relief. Duoflora, with its unique blend of two human probiotic strains, offers a natural, science-backed solution for eczema.
The Power of Duoflora’s Probiotic Strains
Duoflora combines the benefits of two powerful probiotic strains—Bifidobacterium breve M16V and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG—to address eczema symptoms and improve overall skin health.
Bifidobacterium Breve M16V: Nurturing Skin Health
This strain offers targeted benefits for eczema management, such as:
- Immune Modulation: It helps regulate immune responses, reducing the inflammation and hypersensitivity that contribute to eczema flare-ups.
- Skin Barrier Support: By improving the skin’s natural barrier function, it helps protect against external irritants, promoting healthier skin.
In a clinical study, infants with eczema were given Bifidobacterium breve M16V or a placebo for one month. The probiotic group showed significant improvement in both the levels of Bifidobacteria and symptoms of eczema, including reduced skin inflammation.
In another study with infants under 11 months, the group receiving B. breve M16V showed a marked improvement in eczema symptoms, with a decrease in immune system markers linked to inflammation.
Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG: Calming Inflammation and Itching
Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, another key probiotic in Duoflora, offers additional eczema relief by:
- Anti-Inflammatory Action: This strain promotes immune regulation, soothing inflamed skin and reducing the redness and itching associated with eczema.
- Immune System Balance: It helps prevent exaggerated immune responses that can trigger eczema flare-ups.
In a study, infants fed a Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG-supplemented formula saw significant improvements in their skin condition, with marked reductions in eczema severity.
Another study demonstrated that prenatal and postnatal supplementation with L. rhamnosus GG prevented eczema in high-risk children, with lasting effects seen from the age of two through seven years.
