In yesterday's post I mentioned Lu's multiple food sensitivities and thought I'd share a little trick of the trade passed on from our pediatrician: Borage Oil. On her advice, I took two tablespoons a day while breastfeeding and Lucy's skin looked better in a matter of days!
Derived from the starflower plant, Borage Oil is an important source of Omega 6, which can be hard to get through diet alone. Not only did it notably improve Lu's eczema, I, too, benefited from the intake: my skin, hair and nails all took on the 'gamma' glow. A nice treat for someone forbidden to eat cheese or chocolate or drink wine!
