Pediatric Cradle Cap: Treatment, Diet and Home Remedies

Food and Nutrition

Foods to be taken
  • Breastfeed as breast milk educates an infant?s immune system and promotes a healthy immune response
  • Probiotic-rich fermented foods and beverages. These foods give the body the beneficial microorganisms that it needs to manage opportunistic organisms, while also supporting healthy immune function

Home Remedies

  • Regularly wash your babys hair with a mild baby shampoo. Then loosen the flakes using a soft brush
  • Rub mild baby oil, almond or olive oil or Vaseline into your babys scalp, leave it for a while (even overnight if you want), then brush off the flakes. Then clean the remaining oil off by shampooing with mild baby shampoo
