Homemade Eczema Treatment (4) - Watermelon & Coconut Oil

 Filed under: Cures & Treatments, Eczema — Vivienne Quek @ Apr 9th, 2008

I was talking to a friend on eczema diet and she shared with me one of her secrets:

Dry the peel of a watermelon, the large variety type that has a deep green skin with blackish green stripes with bright red pulp with black seeds inside. She said to burn the dired peel to an ash. Take a spoonful of this ash and add enough warm coconut oil to make a paste. After it is cool, apply this on the eczema-ridden patch.

Coconut oil is long known to have healing properties on eczema so that was not a surprise, but watermelon is not as well documented. There’s go to tell that we must keep ourselves informed of fellow sufferers’ healing tips.
