#405 Listener Q&A: Chlorine and Gut Healing In Child Eczema with Christa Biegler, RD

Send us Fan MailThis week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I’m answering two listener questions around childhood eczema—when it flares from pool exposure and when gut healing alone isn’t enough. If you’ve been navigating eczema with your child (or yourself) and feel like you’ve hit a wall despite diet changes and supplements, this one’s for you.In this episode, I break down the different types of eczema and how they react to things like chlorine, chemical sensitivity, and gut imbalances. I also share what clues to look for (like how symptoms show up after swimming or starting solids) and why doing things in the right order can make all the difference.❓Got your own question for Christa?
