This is evidence that reducing arginine IgE results in a reduction of symptoms associated with IgE-mediated allergic disease.13 For people who arginine find they cannot adequately avoid the allergens, the symptoms often can be controlled with medications.

The German researchers conclude that B12 (cobalamin) when applied to the skin one or more times per day exhibited “...excellent results in topical treatment of skin disorders and in particular of inflammatory and hyperproliferative skin ailments and/or cutaneous manifestations of illness which are immunologic in origin, e.g. psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, and other eczematous dermatitises...”12 Click here for Allergy medication online.
