Any nutritional tips for seborrheic dermatitis, or other lifestyle suggestions (sleep, stress, etc)?

Seb dermatitis: Seborrheic dermatitis is dry flaky skin around the scalp, nose, ears; worse in cold weather. Alternatives to traditional steroid creams is optimizing your vitamin levels such as b and d, adding omega 3 oils, checking to make sure your thyroid is okay and evaluating if you have food intolerances. Use gentle prodcuts, drink lots of water and humidify your house.
