Food allergy linked to certain form of eczema, study says - UPI
The answer to whether a kid with eczema also develops a food allergy could lie just beneath the surface of their skin, a new study says.
Researchers recently discovered that the top layer of skin in children with a certain form of eczema called atopic dermatitis and food allergy is thinner than those with just atopic dermatitis, according to research published on Wednesday in Science Translational Medicine.
This discovery could give scientists better insight on how food allergies develop.
