Vitamin D Might Help Kids With Eczema. FRIDAY, Oct. 17, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- Daily vitamin D supplements might help children with eczema that gets worse in the winter, a new study suggests. When eczema, a chronic inflammatory skin disorder, flares up in the winter it's known as winter-related atopic dermatitis.
It was shown that taking 345 mg of GLA or 1500 mg borage oil for a period of 24 weeks, offers relief from atopic eczema.4 It was also suggested that borage supplementation could potentially reduce the use of steroid creams and other such drugs, avoiding the side effects commonly associated with this type of treatment.
