Through her experience, Jennifer discovered the power of natural medicine, clean eating, and identifying food triggers for her son's eczema. Her son's skin significantly improved by implementing an elimination diet and removing specific food triggers. This revelation led Jennifer to explore holistic and natural treatments further, eventually leading her to create YORO Naturals, a company offering products tailored to individuals with eczema.
YORO Naturals is unique because it provides specialty medications that can be sold by her retail company, The Eczema Company.
Jennifer Roberge highlights the significance of keeping a journal to record the outcomes of various treatments. By documenting the effects of different products, dietary changes, and lifestyle adjustments, individuals can gain insights into what triggers their eczema and what helps alleviate symptoms. This systematic approach allows individuals to track patterns, identify potential triggers, and assess the effectiveness of different interventions over time.
Jennifer's experience with her son's eczema led her to create resources like the
Itchy Little World blog, The Eczema Company, and YORO Naturals. These platforms allow parents and individuals with eczema to connect, share experiences, and find support. By sharing her story and providing information on alternative treatments and natural skincare products, Jennifer empowers others to explore different options and not lose hope in their journey towards managing eczema.
