We examined the effects of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) during pregnancy to see if it helps lower the risk of childhood allergic diseases, including eczema.
Research shows that mothers taking these supplements during pregnancy may give birth to fewer children with atopic eczema, especially in those at high risk for allergies.
However, studies focusing solely on postnatal supplementation had mixed outcomes—some found no significant benefits.
Overall, it seems that using omega-3 supplements before allergies manifest could be beneficial, but more research is needed to determine the best timing and long-term effects.

We explored the connection between fish consumption and eczema in Japanese school-aged children, comparing 135 students with eczema to healthy peers. Through questionnaires and blood tests, we assessed dietary habits and levels of specific fatty acids in the blood.
Our findings indicated that eating fatty and dried fish was linked to a lower prevalence of eczema. Notably, higher levels of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) were also associated with reduced eczema symptoms.
However, no significant effect on asthma was observed. These results suggest that increasing fish intake may be beneficial for eczema in kids.

EPA-E improves eczema-like symptoms
We explored how eicosapentaenoic acid ethyl ester (EPA-E), a component of omega-3 fish oil, affects atopic dermatitis-like symptoms in mice. This study showed that EPA-E could improve skin barrier issues and reduce itching in mice with conditions similar to human eczema.
We observed that the treatment helped restore important lipids in the skin, known as ceramides. These results suggest that EPA-E may offer a promising approach to treat eczema in people, but further testing is needed.

I believe Omega-3 is beneficial at any dosage. An endocrinologist addressed my persistent eczema on my fingers and palms, recommending it with D3 after confirming a deficiency through blood tests. It has helped immensely! After finishing a jar, my eczema has yet to return. I've ordered more and plan to take it regularly for life as advised. Additionally, my sudden heart palpitations have ceased. I highly recommend it! Wishing everyone good health!

I really enjoyed this Omega-3 from Solo. My eczema, which lingered for years after giving birth, has completely disappeared. My hands are now soft and hydrated. I take one capsule twice daily, once in the morning and once at lunch with a meal.

Eczema gone
I recommend this after experiencing subacute thyroiditis and receiving hormone treatment. My skin was extremely dry, and I had developed eczema in some areas. However, after two months of taking it, I've noticed significant improvements. My eczema has disappeared, and my skin is now smooth and pleasant to the touch. I have more energy and cope better with stress, waking up refreshed. I suggest everyone try it, taking one capsule daily.

We examined the relationship between maternal polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) during pregnancy and the risk of allergies, including eczema, in their children within the first two years of life.
In our study with 573 mother-infant pairs, we found that higher levels of certain fatty acids, especially arachidonic acid and omega-3 PUFA, were associated with a reduced risk of allergies in children.
This trend was notably stronger for children whose mothers had a history of allergies. Overall, our research suggests that maternal PUFA intake might play a protective role against eczema and other allergic conditions.

We investigated how fish consumption during pregnancy and infancy influences allergic conditions in children. Our analysis included a range of studies, revealing that while mothers eating fish during pregnancy didn't seem to lower allergy risks, infants consuming fish in their first year notably reduced eczema occurrences.
Specifically, we found a reduced risk of eczema and allergic rhinitis in those who consumed fish early in life. This indicates that introducing fish to infants' diets may offer important allergy protection.
Overall, while maternal intake showed no significant benefits, early fish consumption appears promising for reducing eczema.

We investigated how oral fatty acids and carbohydrates influence eczema symptoms. In a pilot study with OVA-sensitized mice, those fed a diet rich in arachidonic acid/docosahexaenoic acid (AA/DHA) and galactooligosaccharides/polydextrose (GOS/PDX) showed pronounced skin improvement.
The mice demonstrated reduced skin inflammation and improved skin barrier function. Specifically, the combination of AA/DHA and GOS/PDX yielded the most benefits. These findings suggest dietary additions may effectively support humans dealing with atopic eczema.

We examined the effects of dietary fish on the risk of eczema and other allergic diseases in children. Using data from a study in Trondheim, we found that children who ate fish at least once a week during their first year had a 28-34% lower chance of developing eczema, asthma, and wheeze by age six.
While cod liver oil showed potential benefits, the strongest results came from regular fish consumption. Surprisingly, we didn’t see any clear impacts related to mothers’ fish intake during pregnancy or nursing.

Eczema disappears
This Omega has a high concentration of EPA and DHA, benefiting the cardiovascular system, joints, and skin. I suffer from dry eczema on my hands in winter; after starting it, my condition improves. I take it in cycles, and it truly helps, although the capsules are on the larger side. Nonetheless, it is great for adults.

Limited evidence for allergy prevention
We explored the impact of omega-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 LCPUFA) supplementation in pregnant and breastfeeding women on their children’s allergy outcomes, including eczema. The study analyzed data from eight trials involving over 3,300 women.
While supplementation showed a significant reduction in IgE-mediated eczema for children aged 12 to 36 months, the overall effect on allergies was limited. Beyond this age range, no meaningful differences were detected, indicating that omega-3 may not be a reliable preventive measure for allergies in children over time.

We examined how the fatty acid composition in pregnant mothers and their cord blood can influence the risk of eczema in their children at 14 months of age. The study involved 211 non-atopic mothers and their infants, collecting comprehensive data through questionnaires.
Our findings revealed that higher levels of certain fatty acids, particularly from the n-3 series like DHA, were linked to a lower prevalence of atopic eczema in children. Lower concentrations of these beneficial fatty acids in cord blood were associated with a greater risk of developing eczema.

Omega-3’s role in allergy prevention
We explored the potential benefits of omega-3 fatty acids found in fish oils during pregnancy to see if they could decrease the risk of allergic diseases in children. Our findings indicate that increased fish oil intake may indeed reduce the prevalence and severity of atopic eczema within the first year of life.
However, while there are some positive associations, the results from various studies are inconsistent. There’s no clear consensus on the effectiveness of omega-3s in preventing allergies across all children. Thus, more research is needed to confirm these findings and fortify strategies for preventing allergic conditions.
