In this episode, my guest talks all about how mouth breathing is tied to eczema, skin issues and the overall health of the rest of the body. We also discuss 2 research studies that specifically studied the link between mouth breathing and eczema (links below). Mouth breathing can be related to:

• Asthma & atopic dermatitis
• Facial development changes (long narrow face & narrow mouth)
• Crooked/crowded teeth & braces
• Sleep interruption
• Reduced oxygen levels
• A tongue-tie

In children, interrupted breathing during sleep can have severe effects on brain growth. Here are 2 Links to mouth breathing and eczema research studies:https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4411141/ https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1991790220301380?via%3Dihub Here are additional studies demonstrating the link between dental infection & eczema: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19691752 - dental infection associated with nummular eczema https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16924154 - improvement of eczema symptoms after removing amalgams https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/17442076 - dental infections & eczema symptoms http://www.jacionline.org/article/S0091-6749(16)31456-7/abstract - children with eczema more likely to develop tooth decay https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4411141/ - mouth breathing linked to higher rates of eczema

In the 2nd part of this 2-part series, we talk about why you should avoid coconut oil and olive oil on your scalp. We also talk about additional treatment options for seborrheic dermatitis - (aka. dandruff, eczema on your scalp and facial eczema).

You'll also learn why hydrosols (such as rosemary hydrosols) and apple cider vinegar can be a good option for seborrheic dermatitis.

You'll also learn if coal tar shampoo and zinc pyrithione is a good option for seborrheic dermatitis.

We also discussed if red light therapy can help seborrheic dermatitis.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• What causes seborrheic dermatitis?
• Why should you avoid putting coconut oil and olive oil on seborrheic dermatitis?
• What are the treatment options for seborrheic dermatitis?
• What is malassezia and how does this affect seborrheic dermatitis?
• What are the best topical solutions to help malassezia?
• What oils should you put on seborrheic dermatitis?
• Why you should not apply undiluted essential oils directly to the skin

We also talked about how seborrheic dermatitis is caused by malassezia.

Everyone has malassezia. It is a lipophilic yeast that eats lipids, and it's a normal part of our body and our microflora. There are 14 different species of malassezia on humans, but they're on other mammals like dogs. We actually think that every mammal has malassezia - but most people haven't heard of it! It's a yeast that everyone has that isn't talked about a lot.

Malassezia causes many different skin conditions, but the most common is seborrheic dermatitis, and we call it Seb Derm.

Today, we are going to talk about the treatments for malassezia that cause the dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis.
