Hi Gayelle.
No I have never used crude honey.But I came across a product
which I find excellent called Honegar.A mixture of apple cider
vinegar and honey.I only use it once a week.I wash my hair and
face and towel dry before bed.Then I apply the Honegar using
my hands to massage into the scalp and face.After a few minutes
it becomes sticky.Then Im off to bed.Next morning I wash my face
and thats it.My hair feels like I have a strong hair gel in it
but that doesnt bother me.I can get 6 to 7 days without any
dandruff with this stuff although I do use an alternated antifungal
shampoo on that same night.The two most important things to
fully controlling seb derm are diet and cleansing.

Hello,
What kind of diets are people doing and does anybody know where I can get
crude honey?

Don’t forget to unattach the pillow from your head before going out
=).

You should be able to find crude honey in a health food store (look
for the words raw and unfiltered or something to that effect). My
only confusion was that there were about 10 different flavors of
honey. Anyway, I also noticed that my grocery store carries crude
honey as well. You have to look carefully but it was there.

I tried it for a few weeks a couple of years ago. It was not very
helpful.
If you havent tried the DRL from Cutanix, then do it now.
The sensitive skin version and even better the 2 % extra strength
version of the DRL.

I have made excellent progress by applying crude honey for 2-3 hrs a
night for the last four weeks. You simply take it out of the jar,
add a dot of water to help it spread, and put it on your face.
I have had seb derm for 21 years. Recently the heat/flushing
associated with the affected areas was getting insufferable.
Couldn’t go in my car without the air con on.
I have now stopped using all moisturisers and cleansers. For the
first two weeks I used Jojoba oil as a simple moisturiser. Now, all
I use is honey.
I went through a week of a scabby face but then it flaked off and
didn’t come back. I shower in the am, use head and shoulders, put
the honey on at night and wash off with water. That’s it!
I can honestly say my skin is better than it has been for ages. The
heat sensitivity has reduced enormously. No scabbing. Some very
light flaking in my eyebrows but not really much more than when I
moisturised daily.
If you try this, be sure to buy the cold-pressed unprocessed honey
that has the enzymes in. (I get mine from a Health Food shop for
about 11GBP). It is meant to be antiseptic, antifungal and anti-
inflammatory. I got the idea from a study I read about online. (Just
google for honey and seb derm and I’m sure you’ll find it)
Hope this helps someone. It’s such a grim condition.

Check out the new treatments listed by Dr Nase.
I dont think baking soda is effective.
I would say see your doc and get one of the anti fungals dr Nase
recommends. Dirt cheap is not a good argument, I dont think money is
the most important thing in the fight against seb derm. But if baking
soda was effective AND cheap, that would be good, but I dont think it
would be effective.

Hi,
Sounds like he is helped by the Baking Soda. Really there should be no
harm in trying it, I doubt baking soda will irritate the skin or in any
other way cause problems.
Maybe I will try it as a cleanser a couple of nights.
Thank you for the tip,
Mads

I use a brand called Eco-Kiwi Raw Honey (New Zealand Natural Food Co,
London NW10 7LP) but I really don’t think it matters as long as you
use one that is described as either ‘raw’ or ‘crude’ or ‘unprocessed’
or ‘coldpressed’.
I leave it on for two or three hours each evening. So far, it is the
best treatment for seb derm i have found. I found anti-fungal creams
all made my skin much sorer.

I’ve used a small amount mixed in with my regular facial cleanser as
an exfollient. It seems to do a reasonable job, however for me it
tends to almost create more flakiness look…like it will pull up part
of some dead skin that wasn’t loose before, but the other part is
holding on fast. So it gets rid of stuff that’s really loose, but it
seems to loosen up other stuff. I do it every once and awhile, but
have never tried it by itself with water before as one of the links in
one of these replies suggests.
