I may have just convinced my bf that his eczema on his hands has a wheat/gluten connection. I haven't quite converted him to the LC band wagon yet, but he was off gluten for about 10 days, and he noticed his itching, cracking, rashy hands were healing up (I noticed they were much softer too ). Well twice this week he consumed gluten (chinese buffet Tues, and gravy Wed). By yesterday, the itching was back with a vengeance on his hands and they were scaling again.

He clicked into the fact he ate gluten and came to the conclusion himself that it might be the gluten causing the symptoms to reflare. In order to be fair, I suggested he go offf again for two weeks then try some gluten for a few days just to test it. If it happens a second time, then he would know for sure
