Ep. 17: Eczema & Pets: Can You Keep Your Pet and Heal Your Skin?
Many people with eczema also share their lives with beloved pets—and the thought of giving them up can feel devastating. But can you really keep your furry (or feathery) family member and still heal your skin?
In this episode of Live with the Eczema Doc, Dr. Diane Fong, ND, dives deep into the connection between pet allergies and eczema. You’ll learn:
- 📊 Pet allergy statistics and why people with eczema are far more prone to reactions.
- 🐶🐱 Types of allergens from cats, dogs, birds, rodents, and more—including dander, saliva, sebaceous secretions, urine, and feather dust.
- ❌ Why “hypoallergenic” pets are a myth (and what’s actually happening when a breed seems easier to tolerate).
- 🧬 How genetics, environmental toxins, diet, mold, parasites, and overall inflammatory load all amplify pet-related allergies.
- 🧪 Testing options for identifying true pet allergies.
- 🏡 Practical, step-by-step strategies to reduce allergen exposure in your home without necessarily giving up your pet—such as air filters, neutralizing sprays, grooming practices, and cleaning techniques.
- 🔑 The Cleanbody Funnel Approach: how lowering your overall toxic and inflammatory burden can improve immune regulation and reduce allergic responses over time.
Dr. Fong also shares her own story of struggling with severe cat and dog allergies—and how healing her body lowered her sensitivity dramatically. Whether you’re trying to decide if your pet is a hidden trigger or just need strategies to coexist more comfortably, this episode offers compassionate, research-backed guidance.
