Good luck: Eczema is a condition based heavily on genetic factors that make your immune system over sensitive. You can't change that. You can work with a dermatologist on devising a skin care plan that can be increased/decreased in intensity based on your flare status. Food allergy testing can help some avoid food triggers.
