The Below Deck Mediterranean chief stew returned to Instagram this week to share more details on her struggles with eczema, a common inflammatory condition that can cause the epidermis to become red, dry, scaly, and itchy.
Aesha said she recently went to a medical professional and underwent blood testing, which revealed B vitamin and zinc deficiencies, as well as low electrolyte levels and elevated liver enzymes. “That *could* affect the detoxification process of my skin,” she said about the latter finding. “These can all play a role in a lack of support for my skin.”
Aesha told her followers she was recommended a handful of supplements, including multivitamins, liver support, electrolytes-infused water, a probiotic (Lactobacillus salivarius), and Omega-3 fish oil. She said the products could significantly improve her deficiencies and alleviate her eczema symptoms when paired with a clean diet.
Aesha Scott reveals changes to her diet
“I need to continue to have a healthy, clean diet, make sure I have non-processed red meat 3-4 x per week (boosts B vitamins especially) and animal protein at least one serving per day,” she explained. “I also am doing one month strictly no dairy or gluten, then will reintroduce one at a time to see if either of those very clearly flare [my eczema] up. I know dairy is the usual culprit so I tend to limit that anyway.”
Aesha promised followers she would keep them updated on her skin journey, and hoped to provide solutions for others dealing with eczema.
“Remember we’re all very different!” she emphasized. “I would recommend seeking your own expert advice! You don’t have to agree with this slide I am simply sharing the advice that I got from a professional I saw and trust.”
Aesha Scott says her skin has always “annoyed” her
Aesha touched on her skin problems in October 2024, after she showed off the results of her latest “lip blushing” procedure.
“I’m really happy with the results,” she said in an Instagram video. “This is part of my lip journey that I am on because my lips have just always been my pet peeve. Growing up, I always had cold sores, eczema, really flaky skin, so I’ve never had a very undefined lip line, which has always annoyed me… You know, if there’s something that has always annoyed you, just actually start being proactive and do something about it.”
Aesha shared the health update as she prepares to tie the knot with Scott “Scotty” Dobson. Find out when the Below Deck Mediterranean cast member will walk down the aisle.
