It’s been noted that a lot of Native Americans are prone to eczema outbreaks. One of the best ways to avoid a sudden eczema outbreak is to keep your skin moisturized and clean. But, another soothing remedy for itchiness is bathing with oats*! To have an oat bath, put 2 cups (2c for adult, 1c for youth, 1/2c for babies) in a clean pantyhose, and holding the end of the pantyhose, swirl oats around warm bath evenly. Remember to stir your bath water as to distribute the oatmeal evenly.
*Beware to those who have an allergy to gluten, as oats may have cross-contaminated with wheat during processing
