Use These Simple Tips To Improve PSORIASIS

Raised, red patches covered with silvery scales on the body or spots of dandruff-like scaling are the classic sign of psoriasis.

Psoriasis is a common lifelong condition and because of its systemic nature, patients exhibit a broad spectrum of symptoms that vary in severity. Psoriasis is an immune-mediated, inflammatory skin and joint condition. It can sometimes take different, more serious forms, and has been linked to other physical and mental health problems. People with psoriasis are more likely to have other conditions linked to inflammation, including arthritis, heart disease, diabetes, obesity, and inflammatory bowel diseases. Although psoriasis requires a long-term treatment several studies suggest that weight loss, vigorous exercise, and proper diet can combat inflammation, improve psoriasis and keep skin healthy. My numerous psoriasis patients improved significantly after I have altered their daily diet. Here are the top 4 FOODS THAT IMPROVE PSORIASIS –

• Flax seeds, walnuts and pumpkin seeds – These are planted source of Omega -3 fatty acids. Omega- 3 helps in reducing the skin inflammation and controlling the symptoms of psoriasis.
• Fish such as salmon, tuna, mackerel, and herring contain Omega-3 fatty acids. Eat fish at least twice a week. It reduces skin inflammation and improves the heart health. Reducing inflammation and improving heart health are important for people with psoriasis.
• Vitamin D fortified milk, yogurt, and orange juice. Also, fish like mackerel and salmon. Egg yolk is rich in vitamin D. Vitamin D may slow the cell growth in psoriasis.
• Fresh fruits and vegetables like carrots, spinach, sweet potatoes, mangoes, strawberries, and blueberries have shown to reduce skin inflammation.

What to avoid when you have psoriasis?

Reduce foods that can increase the skin inflammation like:

• Red Meat
• Dairy products
• Refined sugars
• Processed foods
• Nightshade vegetables, including potatoes, tomatoes, and peppers

Herbs that can improve psoriasis

• Turmeric- has powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric has the ability to alter gene expression. Curcumin is an orally bioavailable blocker of TNF.

Here’s Dhiraj’s experience after he used homeopathy treatment at AIS Clinic to overcome his Psoriasis.

“I had patches of psoriasis on my scalp, elbows, and abdomen since 6 years. The patches were very itchy and would often pain. After trying several treatments I switched to homeopathy. After using homeopathy medicines for 3 to 4 months my patches healed completely. Now it’s been more than 1 year, I am off the treatment and thankfully there are no relapses.”
