Indications
Classic indications, as there are with conventional drugs, do not exist for Kijimea® Derma. It is a dietary supplement that is not prescribed or used to specifically treat one or more diseases. Rather, Kijimea® Derma has a supporting effect on general skin problems. This can be unspecific redness, dry, itchy or sensitive skin. According to the manufacturers of Kijimea® Derma, skin prone to eczema also benefits. In the case of skin diseases such as neurodermatitis, psoriasis, eczema or other skin conditions, however, Kijimea® Derma should at most be viewed as a supporting component of the treatment. In such a case, therapy by a dermatologist cannot be replaced by a dietary supplement.

acne
Approximately 85% of the population go through a phase in their life when they suffer from acne. Usually this is puberty. Fortunately, most acne heals between the ages of 20 and 30. In some people it unfortunately persists and causes skin imperfections, so-called Comedones. In severe cases, nodular abscesses and pustules are found that leave scars as they heal. Acne therapy consists of various components and stages, which depend on the severity of the disease. Both thorough skin cleansing and drug therapy are important to improve the complexion.
Kijimea® Derma is therefore not suitable for the sole treatment of acne. For some sufferers, however, an additional intake of Kijimea® Derma, parallel to the usual therapy and skin care, seems to help. The intake of Kijimea® Derma should be discussed with the treating dermatologist in the case of acne in order to better assess the course of the disease. Any improvements or deteriorations can thus be determined more objectively.

Neurodermatitis
About 10 to 15% of the population are affected by neurodermatitis in childhood. The condition disappears over the course of life in many people, but in some it persists. Dry skin, itching and eczema are characteristic of atopic dermatitis, which is also called atopic eczema referred to as. There are some studies on the therapy of neurodermatitis with so-called probiotics. These are microcultures like those contained in Kijimea® Derma.
The research is contradicting itself and it is not clear whether there are real benefits from treatment with such probiotics. The benefit is very controversial, especially for the severe form of neurodermatitis. A recommendation is therefore not made by the specialist society of dermatologists. However, some studies have also shown positive effects on those affected. A treatment attempt with Kijimea® Derma can be carried out especially for mild forms of neurodermatitis.

psoriasis
The cause of psoriasis has not been conclusively clarified, although some triggering factors are already known. Above all, genetic predisposition and so-called trigger factors play a major role in the development of psoriasis. Trigger factors are stimuli or triggers that lead to the onset of the disease. This can include drugs, infections or mechanical stress on the skin be. The therapy of psoriasis is complex and includes both local therapeutic measures and medication for internal use. However, therapy with probiotics is not part of it. The use of Kijimea® Derma for psoriasis is therefore not recommended. Efficacy cannot be assumed.

Side effects
There are currently no known side effects of Kijimea® Derma. If side effects or new symptoms as well as deterioration of the skin appearance should occur, this can and should be reported to the manufacturer.
Interactions
Since many people, especially in old age, take medication regularly, the question of interactions is very important. Over-the-counter drugs in particular can interact with other medications that cannot be directly controlled by a doctor. Such over-the-counter products are also called "over-the-counter medication". However, with Kijimea® Derma this risk does not exist.
There are currently no known interactions of Kijimea® Derma with other drugs. Especially people who have to take a lot of medication regularly should discuss the use of other over-the-counter active ingredients or dietary supplements with their doctor. New side effects or interactions can thus be more easily assigned to an active ingredient.
Compatibility with alcohol
In principle, there is nothing wrong with taking Kijimea® Derma and simultaneously consuming alcohol, as no interactions are to be expected. However, there may be increased side effects, mainly affecting the gastrointestinal tract. Flatulence, diarrhea, or stomach pain are possible consequences. However, no more serious side effects or interactions are known. Nevertheless, alcohol consumption has a very negative effect on many skin problems, so that the improvement of the skin through consumption is limited. For Kijimea® Derma to work well, alcohol consumption should therefore be kept to a minimum or even avoided.

Riboflavin and Biotin both belong to the group of B vitamins, whereas the microculture L. salivarius FG01 Contains microorganisms. There are no known contraindications for Kijimea® Derma.

Active ingredient
The product Kijimea® Derma is available in the form of hard capsules. The hard capsules contain a kind of powder that should not be dissolved in water, but should be swallowed whole in its capsule. The capsule dissolves in the digestive tract, where it releases the active ingredients. A daily dose of Kijimea® Derma, which consists of two capsules, contains 1.4 mg of riboflavin, 150 micrograms of biotin and 2x107KBE the microculture L. salivarius FG01.

effect
Kijimea® Derma capsules contain a combination of three active ingredients, namely a microculture and two vitamins from the vitamin B family. According to the manufacturer, the microculture called L. salivarius FG01 unfolds its effect in the digestive tract. Similar to other probiotics, it is supposed to help support the healthy intestinal flora and intestinal barrier. Some may wonder what the intestines have to do with skin problems. The origin of many skin problems is still not 100% understood and clarified today. In some eczema diseases, various scientists assume that the intestines play an important role in the development of the disease.
To what extent the intestine is involved and what ultimately triggers the disease is usually not known. The effect of microcultures on the intestinal flora and an improvement in skin diseases has been investigated in various studies. However, the results are contradictory and cannot clearly demonstrate healing or positive effects. Nevertheless, the manufacturers of Kijimea® Derma rely on the effect of the microculture of their product on various skin diseases. Subjective experience reports show that Kijimea® Derma has improved the complexion of some people with skin problems.
Apart from the said microculture, Kijimea® Derma contains riboflavin and biotin, two vitamins from the vitamin B family. Riboflavin takes on important metabolic functions in the body and protects cells from oxidative stress. It is therefore a so-called antioxidant. Biotin, which is also called vitamin B7, has several important functions in the body. Symptoms of a biotin deficiency include skin disorders, hair loss and brittle nails. In combination with each other, the three active ingredients should help to strengthen and protect the skin in a natural way.
