milk allergy and eczema

[Guest guest]

Does anyone know if a milk allergy can cause problems with eczema?

My kids (all 8 of them) have always drunk milk, either cow or goat.

Last winter for the first time, my 6, 7 and 11 year olds all got

eczema. I gave them flax oil and it seemed to disappear in a week or

so. Over the summer I stopped giving it to them.

Now this winter, during the cold and dry spell, my 6 and 11 year olds

have the eczema back. I started flax oil and fish oil daily (1 tsp

each kid) two weeks ago and there is no relief.

I asked my naturopathic dr about it and he said eczema is usually a

reaction to milk and/or wheat. Would it really appear all these years

after always consuming milk and wheat? We have been drinking raw milk

for 2 months, goat milk for 9 months before that.

Any words of wisdom?
