Manitowoc, WI -- (SBWire) -- 11/17/2014 --Atopic Dermatitis also commonly known as eczema includes itchy, red and dry skin caused by inflammation which are common in infants and some adults. Most common types of eczema can be treated with oral medications, steroid creams or light therapy. A study conducted all across England and Wales stated that significant calcium concentration in domestic water supply significantly increased the risk of babies having eczema.

Hard water which is characterized by the presence of f 258mg/L or more calcium carbonate concentration in domestic water supply is the reason why most babies experience eczema at three months. Amount of calcium carbonate concentrations on England and Wales’ water supply vary differently due to rich limestone beds which are found in some areas. According to Dr. CarstenFlor during the meeting of European Task Force on Atopic Dermatitis held in conjunction with the annual congress of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venerology, there are 1,303 infants who had underwent structured skin examination with SCORAD (SCOring Atopic Dermatitis) measurement.

Twenty-four per cent had been diagnosed with mild eczema. Those who are residing within areas with a calcium carbonate water concentration above the median level had experience a 45 per cent increase in eczema risk. Dr.Floz would like to see if eczema risk will be reduced by removing calcium carbonate in water. Hardness of water had been linked to causing high-risk eczema in three month old babies. However, it may not only be the contributing factor. Fillaggrin loss-of-function mutations which are associated with early-onset eczema, eczema severity and transepidermal water loss at 3 months of age mediated the risk. All participants on the study underwent testing for the six most common such mutations. Children without an FLG mutation showed little risk in eczema using hard water.

It is suggested that drinking and bathing water should include filtering and salt free water softener to enhance the cleanliness of the water which will be used by children and adults alike. The use of water softener is necessary to reduce hard water build up. It also can remove water spotting. Water softener works by removing harmful minerals which are not beneficial to the human body including iron and manganese. This also causes soap to lather more effectively. These new water softeners are environment friendly and user-friendly. It is great to consider to soften water and it is best to use salt-free water softener which are certified and have received numerous reviews to make sure that it will work efficiently for the safety of babies and adults alike.
