- Cradle cap (infant seborrheic dermatitis) is linked to microbiome imbalance involving increased colonisation by Malassezia yeasts and Staphylococcus aureus (Micali et al, 2021).
- Probiotic oil with lactobacillus species improves adult seborrheic dermatitis (Truglio et al., 2024).
“We've used Ethos Coconut Oil on our two children from newborns right through to toddlers. It's been really effective in quickly clearing up cradle cap - it cleared up some large patches in under a week for both our children. We used it after bathing, applying it liberally. We also used it as a preventative on their face & skin creases - highly recommended" - Steven & Hannah
