This study was published in 2014 in the International Journal of Dermatology.

It enrolled 117 patients with atopic dermatitis (eczema) - randomizing them to either:

◇ Standard treatment (mineral oil)
◇ Virgin coconut oil

5 ml of the assigned oil, twice daily, for 8 weeks.

Coconut oil drastically reduced eczema severity.

The rating of eczema severity declined by:

◇ 68.23% in the coconut oil group
◇ 38.13% in the mineral oil group

If the trial went on longer, who knows how much more they would have benefitted - it looks like the real difference started at 8 weeks.

Coconut oil induced an excellent response in patients.

Not only was the average improvement huge, but nearly everyone saw benefit.

☆ 96% of people improved (vs 53% in mineral oil)
☆ 47% of them had moderate (>30%) improvement (vs 34% with mineral oil)
☆ 46% of them had >70% improvement (vs 19% with mineral oil)

This improvement was seen in both objective and subjective ways.

The doctors assessing the lesions noted marked improvement.

People using the coconut oil also reported a HUGE subjective change in their symptoms and quality of life.

One of the biggest issues with eczema is that the skin loses its ability to retain water, resulting in dryness.

They measured the amount of water lost by the skin in both groups.

Virgin coconut oil resulted in >70% improvement in water loss, compared to <50% for mineral oil.
