DHA shows promise for eczema
Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation in atopic eczema: a randomized, double-blind, controlled trial.
Study directly evaluates DHA impact
In a controlled trial, we assessed how docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)—an omega-3 fatty acid—affects atopic eczema. Fifty-three patients, aged 18 to 40, were randomly assigned to receive either 5.4 grams of DHA daily or an isoenergetic control comprising saturated fatty acids for eight weeks. This double-blind setup helped ensure that neither the participants nor the researchers knew who received which treatment, thereby reducing bias in the results.
Throughout the study, we measured the severity of eczema using the SCORAD index at multiple intervals. Our findings showed that DHA supplementation led to a notable improvement in eczema symptoms, with patients experiencing a significant decrease in their SCORAD scores. This contrasted with the control group, which did not show similar improvements. Notably, we also found that DHA reduced certain immune responses linked to eczema, indicating its potential role in managing this condition.
Given these encouraging results, it appears that DHA could be an effective dietary addition for people suffering from atopic eczema. However, further research with a larger participant pool is necessary to confirm these findings and fully understand the benefits of DHA on this skin condition.

DHA linked to lower eczema
Relationship between dietary fat and fish intake and the prevalence of atopic eczema in pregnant Japanese females: baseline data from the Osaka Maternal and Child Health Study.
High relevance to dietary effects
We examined how dietary factors, particularly docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), influence the prevalence of atopic eczema among pregnant Japanese females. In a study involving 1,002 participants, we gathered data through a detailed diet history questionnaire, focusing on their intake of various fatty acids and the occurrence of atopic eczema.
Our findings revealed that DHA intake was significantly linked to a reduced rate of atopic eczema both currently and after the age of 18. However, we did not find consistent evidence supporting the idea that n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids, as well as total fat and other types of dietary fat, had a meaningful effect on eczema.
While the study encourages the inclusion of DHA in the diet during pregnancy, it also highlights the complexity of dietary impacts on allergic conditions like eczema. Overall, we observed a noteworthy association between higher DHA intake and lower prevalence rates of eczema in this group, suggesting that it could be a beneficial addition to the diets of pregnant women.

DHA supplementation reduces eczema risk
Fish oil supplementation in pregnancy and lactation may decrease the risk of infant allergy.
Relevant score indicates strong support
We investigated the effects of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), a type of omega-3 fatty acid, on the incidence of eczema in infants. Our study involved 145 pregnant women who had allergies or family histories of allergies. They participated in a randomized, placebo-controlled trial where some received daily supplements of DHA during pregnancy and breastfeeding, while others received a placebo.
We found that infants whose mothers took DHA experienced a lower prevalence of eczema related to immunoglobulin E (IgE). Specifically, only 8% of infants in the DHA group developed IgE-associated eczema compared to a concerning 24% in the placebo group, marking a significant difference.
This suggests that maternal omega-3 supplementation, particularly with DHA, could play a beneficial role in reducing the risk of eczema in infants with a family history of allergies. Thus, incorporating omega-3 fatty acids in a mother’s diet during pregnancy and lactation may be a simple yet effective strategy to help protect babies from developing eczema.

I began using this to help with my acne and eczema, but I have not yet seen a significant difference. The great thing is that there is no fishy aftertaste.

DHA dietary benefits for eczema
Dietary polyunsaturated fatty acids and non-digestible oligosaccharides reduce dermatitis in mice.
Comprehensive but combined results
We aimed to explore the impact of dietary components on eczema, particularly focusing on docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). In our study, we induced skin inflammation in mice that were previously sensitized to allergens. While these mice were treated with food enriched with DHA and other ingredients, we closely observed any changes in their skin condition.
What we found was encouraging. The combination of DHA with arachidonic acid and non-digestible oligosaccharides significantly reduced the severity of dermatitis in the mice. This improvement was evident based on clinical assessments of skin condition and was linked to better skin barrier function.
Specifically, those receiving DHA showed reduced water loss from their skin and lessening of certain immune cell responses associated with inflammation. Our results suggest that not only does DHA contribute positively, but combining it with other nutrients amplifies its benefits, potentially offering new dietary management strategies for human eczema.
This study opens up exciting avenues for exploring how certain dietary fats could be used to manage conditions like atopic eczema better. We believe these findings reinforce the importance of nutrition in skin health and inflammation management.

DHA levels linked to eczema risk
Fatty-acid composition of maternal and umbilical cord plasma and early childhood atopic eczema in a Spanish cohort.
Study highlights DHA importance
In our exploration of how fatty acid levels influence skin conditions, we looked specifically at docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and its relationship with eczema in young children. We analyzed samples of maternal plasma and cord blood from 211 non-atopic mothers throughout their pregnancies and into their children's first 14 months of life. By collecting data through questionnaires, we documented cases of atopic eczema in the infants and monitored any patterns associated with fatty acid levels.
We observed that higher levels of long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) in maternal blood appeared to relate to lower incidences of eczema in their children. Notably, DHA levels stood out as being particularly important; lower levels in cord blood were linked to a greater prevalence of eczema. Specifically, we found that DHA showed a negative correlation with the risk of eczema, suggesting that adequate DHA during pregnancy may play a protective role.
This study highlights a potential connection between the diet of expecting mothers, especially concerning DHA intake, and the risk of eczema in their children. While it doesn't confirm that DHA alone can treat eczema, it does emphasize the importance of maternal nutrition during pregnancy for the future health of children. The findings suggest that ensuring sufficient DHA might be beneficial in reducing eczema risk among infants.
