Good morning

In reading your post on psoriasis, I thought to mention a product that I have been using.

Although it treats my psoriasis within 6-8 weeks, new spots appear in different areas of my body. Ugh!

The product, which I purchase on Amazon is called Qicaogangmn Caoben Yijun Rugan.

It is a cream. You can look into the ingredients and perhaps find it useful in coming up with your own concoction??

I had my former dermatologist who is Asian look at the ingredients to make certain there were no steriods in it. He concluded there were not.

Good luck

Cold Showers
Posted by Pam E. (SW California) on 02/08/2024 131 posts

"Call me crazy, but it seems my shower doesn't get as grimy as it did before when I was using hot water. My complexion has improved, and there is an obvious difference in my pores."

This is all probably due to the heat dissolving & removing the natural oils from OP's skin, which would get splashed onto the cooler shower walls & not get rinsed away thoroughly by the hot water, perhaps even becoming firmer in that cooler environment.... HOT showers cause DRY skin & other problems!

So, the cold water doesn't remove near as much skin oil -if any- which had a noticeably beneficial effect on OP's skin. Win Win!!! Warm & cold showers are therefore much more healthy to take!


DMSO + Essential Oils
Posted by Natalia (Sarasota) on 12/24/2023

Remember that peppermint essential oil is so easy to "manufacture", so 90% is fake, lab made "essential oil". Not even diluted or adulterated, just synthetic. It looks real and smells real, yet it is fake. There are no labs or methods exist to verify its purity. It can't be verified or guaranteed by any lab. There are very few companies that sell authentic, medicinal quality essential and extracted oils. They buy directly from the distillers and know where the "source' comes from. If there is a middle man involved, the best one can hope for is that it is not too diluted. I have no idea what they dilute it with, but they all do. The more exotic oil is, at affordable price, the higher chances it is fake. As for the peppermint oil, it is easy and cheap to make it in the lab.

DMSO plus lavender and peppermint oil for Psoriasis worked.

I had itchy ankles that ruined sleep and scaly patches on my elbows I assumed was psoriasis that I treated with a few drops of DMSO mixed with a few drops of lavender and peppermint oil. This worked like crazy.

Borax
Posted by Dr Howard (Torrance CA) on 08/22/2023

Suggestions for the following: use USP -especially if taking orally many powders contain impurities -which is the highest purity: Baking soda, Borax, Epsom salts, Clays, etc.

Supplements:fruits, vegetables, herbs, Amino acids, vita C, should be Organic or like with L Arginine USP or Pharma grade- both grades safer more effacious.

All this is if one has the funds as higher grades cost more as we all know. Then pick, if possible, your most important items to be organic or USP or Pharma grade.

Coffee organic, yes, but processing should be steam process as roasting destroys many nutrients in the nutrition packed beans. One brand has a patented process by a scientist which retains nutrients by recirculating. You can read about it.Healthy Roast Coffee (R)

”Scientists create ‘ super' offer roasting technique.”1

1. Nutralngredients USA has sound well researched articles each month on nutrition and related subjects.

”Brandeis NOW Coffee flour offers a potentially healthier way of enjoying Java.”12/11/15

This is exciting. Besides drinking but Baking too using coffee flour? Or mixing with an organic flour/s? More antioxidants and gives your baked goods a ‘pick me up'!


Borax
Posted by yve (mass ) on 07/31/2023

it's great to see you have such success treating psoriasis using borax. my concern is when I googled "is borax ingestible?" and the answer is "no"; it's toxic and could be fatal if large amount was ingested! I'm lost. I've suffered plaque psoriasis for almost two years and have tried many things to avoid going to the doctor again. the steroid cream and antibiotic did nothing for me. my question is the borax you took "20mule team" borax, the one that sold at the wal-mart? what's the dosage & frequency? I'm in my sixty. thanks for your help.

EC: Hi, that comment came from a viewer on our Borax YouTube video page. You'll need to hunt for it by date and then reply to the poster on YouTube and see if they respond.

Cecilia, hi. Would you be open to some changes in your protocol?

First, besides gluten-free, cutting out all wheat and wheat-related (cousins of wheat) products....

Nothing with 'ose' at the end: sucrose, lactose, glucose, etc.

Cutting down on too many supplements that overload your liver to process might help, too.

No yeast or anything related to yeast.

Carbs are sugar, so I would stay away from that list I see online all the time about white carbs: no rice, sugar, bread, pasta, potatoes. Eating some of these foods is the same an eating sugar out of a bag, no difference.

Organic coconut oil deeply massaged into your elbows after a shower when your pores are open.

P73 Oregano Oil is a must, but you need to try a little bit first to make sure you can tolerate the strength. If it burns a bit, you can dilute with a few drops of olive oil. This has effectively and completely killed the itch during flare-ups and is a wonder 'drug'. If and when you become brave enough, a couple of drops under your tongue everyday will help kill what's in your body causing this. I used to pay $60 for 1oz back in the day, but I see it out there for much less cost today. The price doesn't matter if it works and relieves. You cannot put a price on your health.

Limit dairy as much as possible, again dairy turns to sugar via carbs.

For psoriasis, what we put into our body is more important than what we put ON our body. If we are eating the wrong food/s, nothing we put on topically will matter, it's just a waste. Also, don't put anything on your skin that you can't put in your mouth and ingest. I suggest tossing any and all topical ointments with brand names, creams, salves, etc. Worthless and full of chemicals.

Nobody knows your body more than YOU do, so see which foods are most tolerable and stick with those only to avoid these terrible flare-ups.

I'd love to know if any of these suggestions work for you.

PSORIASIS GONE

I remember the woman cutting my hair at age 14 telling me I had some redness on my scalp. That was the awful beginning. Turned out it was this condition called 'psoriasis'. I write this in quote marks because I don't believe anything (zero) BigPharma or these universities 'research' and write about this condition, especially that it's an 'autoimmune disease'. It is not.

Slowly but surely my condition worsened, but mostly on my head/scalp until my late 20s, possibly 30s. Then it started to spread. I was fortunate enough to be able to travel to the Dead Sea for 3 weeks to a month for therapy. Nothing beats the Dead Sea....IF you do it right. I would experience a good, solid 9 months to a year of remission afterwards. I always visited during the hottest months, aka 'off-season', prices were much less. But this is not why I'm posting today.

While staying at the Dead Sea, I made sure to get out to the solarium at daybreak, stay there until the sun set over the mountains, then return to grab something to eat and pass out in my room. The sun and heat make you very tired.

During these visits, I observed everything....specifically the behavior of the others that came to heal, especially the Europeans. For me, it was work and diligence. For them, it was just another holiday off work (paid for by their insurance) where they could party AND drink (alcohol) until the AM. In the solarium, you are naked. No clothing so the sun can heal you everywhere on your body. So you see who heals and who does not. Those partiers and heavy drinkers never healed. The slackers (late to the beach and early to dinner) never healed.

Fast forward to 2005. I am in FL and my condition has worsened. I weighed in the 260s and have scaly patches on my knees, elbows, forearms (bottom), all around my belly button, and still on my scalp, behind my ears, just terrible. No relief in sight. I used to think and say to family and friends, "How much would I pay to rid myself of this condition? Everything I have, then I'd start over."

I met a woman that said she could help me. By then I was so over having people give me their b.s. remedies that never worked, but I was still open-minded enough to try almost anything. She gave me a very, very specific diet and told me that she wanted me to follow it obsessively. No going off course. ONLY this diet. I read it. It was not easy. More important than what I could eat was what I could not eat. This is an exclusionary diet. Upon further reading, it made logical sense to me. After 90 days, I was P-free. Not a dot, not a single lesion anywhere. I joined a site called NPF, the National Psoriasis Foundation. Utter bullsh*t. I wrote something like 'Cured after 30 years!! ' They threw me off in a week because I was against ALL drugs and supplements. I had no chance.

Here are my findings, which are opposite of much of what's posted here and other places by P-sufferers:

No more sugar. Never again, not in any form. That includes 95% of all fruits. No more wheat or wheat family. Zero. No alcohol. No corn in any form, no dairy, no peanuts, walnuts, cashews. Nothing that can breed mold. No yeast or related.

Body Care. Is the itching driving you to rip your skin off? I use P73 oregano oil, rub it in, itch gone. If it's too strong and burns a bit, dilute with a bit of olive oil. Use it on your finger and toe nails. My hair/scalp? I seldom shampoo, but when I do, I just use a little bit of that Greek olive-oil bar soap that I shower with. Been using it since '05 and never looked back. Supplements? NOT a believer, so sorry. The more of these we put in our bodies, the more our liver has to work to process them and remove toxins. There is something called caprylic acid I took to help ward off yeast in my body. SWEAT as much as possible and only drink water. Squeeze lemon into your water, it's great. The more you sweat, the faster you will heal your body. Take before and after photos. I did not, I forgot, so guess what I have instead? I have these amazing 'scars' (not really scars) of dark pigmentation where all of my lesions were. Lesions gone, but these scars are outlined on my arms, belly, and legs. It's amazing. I always felt bad that I didn't have photos of BEFORE, but this is even better. I show them off to everybody. 90 DAYS and gone.

I am going to tell everyone reading this now that I have this diet so extremely down to a science, that I can actually bring on the lesions/scales whenever I want and then get rid of them at will. Bringing them out takes about 3-5 days after eating papaya, watermelon (both forbidden on this protocol) or a couple of pita (wheat is hands down worst), but it takes weeks to get rid of them. Here is something cool to know about the healing process. Whereas you would think that the lesions will start to get smaller from outside inward, it actually happens in reverse. Every lesion that healed on my body had a tiny dot start somewhere in the middle and move outward. MORE SWEAT, more healing. Soften your skin with coconut oil and throw away every other cream or 'moisturizer' (with nothing but harmful chemicals) out in your trash. They are poison.

I wish you luck and success. You must be diligent and not waver. This protocol had me clear in 75 to 90 days and it's OUT of my life now. This exclusionary diet will be easily memorized by you and will become second nature. You won't even think about it after a year or two.

Let me know how it goes. G-d bless everybody trying to get better.

Borax
Posted by Art (California) on 05/07/2023 2146 posts

Thana,

I have severe psoriatic arthritis (PA) and taking borax orally has kept it in remission for way over a decade now. I use Ted's dosing instructions that call for 1/4 teaspoon of borax dissolved in a quart of water for men and 1/8th teaspoon dissolved in one quart of water for women.

Drink one full mix each weekday and take the weekends off. I still have the PA as attested to by the ridges on my nails, but no joint inflammation, joint deterioration or pain. Nothing ever worked this good for my PA. Five days on and 2 days off.

Psoriasis. Thank you Earth clinic for helping me out my flaking. I had a few spots in my scalp for over two years. Doctors confirmed me as psoriatic arthritis. I have rheumatoid arthritis for over 20 years.

After reading some comments in here I shampooed my hair a solution of borax and water and drank a mixture of borax, ACV and baking soda. I am totally cleared of flaking but my arthritis is still active. I have been clear for over ten years now. Occasions of itch at the flaking spot I will resume with one or two shampooing sessions. I am back to this page after so long for some other issue and wanted to contribute and thank this site for curing my flaking psoriasis.

Pink Himalayan Salt
Posted by Maverick (Washington State, USA) on 04/28/2023

Unreal... I had eczema, dermatitis and/or psoriasis under both eyes after I got cross-contaminated with gluten (being glutened sucks A**). BTW, similar can happen if you're lactose intolerant. The protein in dairy (casein) mimics the protein in wheat (gluten).

I had it for many weeks and I tried everything such as aloe vera gel, apple cider vinegar, castor oil, etc.. Then I read some comments here that swimming in the ocean and sea salt or dead sea salt got rid of their eczema. So I decided to try it with salt in water.

The last 3 days, I've put Pink Himalayan Salt mixed in filtered water, into a cup. I swished it around with my fingers so it would dissolve in the water and then I splashed it on both eyes (I did NOT dry at all). I think it's KEY to understand not to dry it off!

I woke up just now, everything flaked off and the red dime sized circles are GONE. I'm in shock. I also read that Chlorine Swimming Pools can do similar, but that's not even necessary. Just fill a cup with water and salt (I presume any salt will work, even table salt), splash it on the area where you have the red rash or eczema/dermatitis/psoriasis and just like it dry. Don't wash it off.

I also remember yesterday I noticed that the reddish areas under my eyes had turned yellowish, which I had not seen before when I used the other treatments (ACV, Castor Oil, Aloe Vera, etc..). So I kind of figured it was dead skin drying out and ready to come off. I'm still in shock at how quickly it happened. This is the cure for your rashes due to Eczema / Psoriasis / Dermatitis.

Thank you for this post. I have psoriasis at 71-years old on both elbows. Im an otherwise fit and vigorous, healthy sugarless-no gluton, person, lol, who is at my ideal weight and taking lots of supplements and in good health. In the last two months, My elbows are suddenly on fire with a horrific itch and now the skin is thickening in those places. It comes on at certain times of the day. I have no clue other than maybe this is a detox from the thyroid meds I took for 15 years that I have recently weaned myself from. (Hashimotos) Thanks for writing in. I'm going to try the borax and aloe for relief.


Multiple Remedies

Yes, homeopathy has many good Remedies like lycopodium and others used successfully on psoriasis. Two others are minerals cuprum or copper met. 6 th potency to 30 th. and zinc. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33505136/

l read this med study and remember reading about these good remedies for psoriasis in the homeopathic materia medica published in 1927 by two MDs.
Those who dealt with the 12 Chief minerals in the body recommend for psoriasis Kali sulph 3X or 6 X the 3 X or 6X potency. Some added in rotation Kali mur 6X (which they also present for shingles).

l have my clients start with low potency say, 3X or 6X then after two or three weeks move to 12X. If the skin is improving stop if it continues. If there is improvement slows or even reverses then take three days a week MWF prior to sleep.Take under tongue.
In homeopathy lf it gets worse stop. When it subsides take MWF and observe.
I would take cuprum or copper 6X first.
Those whom refuse homeopathy can try colloidal copper. Search Amazon for a good copper. Don't know if l can give a brand here so just read up. Fill a small bottle with a mist pump and used on skin and scalp as well as orally. Follow directions on product label. Three pumps is a dose.
Wonderful for skin makes it appear younger! The appearance of Wrinkles are reduced too.
As to Lycopodium 6X MWF at bedtime every other week.

Lycopodium good for hair and skin. Vary dosages. Don't take too frequently. I just gave a guideline. You can take every three weeks or 4 then stop for a few days. Suggestions. Homeopathics are by nature time releasers then continue to work after you cease for awhile.

A good bath for skin is Epsom salts, magnesium flakes, baking soda and Dead Sea salts, apple cider vinegar 1/2 cup. Follow labels.

ALWAYS shower with a good filter. You can fill your tub with filtered water! The chemicals cause many negative conditions.Use a good anti psoriasis shampoo and conditioner.

Aloe Vera

Boric acid USP l have read alleviates psoriasis. Soak a cotton ball dab on affected areas.l would say dab on up to three times a day.

As to a tea Cats claw from Peru only as their variety has more bio activity Wonderful for immune system. Amazon World Botanical's. Works well in a mist bottle so mist on face, hair/ scalp with clean hands rub in. Mist on psoriasis affected areas gently rub on.

Actually any skin problem. Drink the tea spring water no R/O (hydrogen bond water Ellis Water best eBay has it)twice a day AM/ PM.

A man called me years ago. He had stage 4 liver cancer. He was entering a university program. Intensive chemo where everyone had hair loss and expectorated, etc. He ordered the Cats claw tea. Did not hear from him for quite some time.

Long story short -he called me -5 years in remission; only one who didn't lose his hair and never got sick! Drs. saw this then privately had each patient add Cats claw to their protocol! Works.

So if it can do that let's see how it handles the immune system relative to psoriasis!


Bleach Baths
Posted by Dr Howard (CA) on 01/17/2023

Dr Gulio Simoncini MD, oncologist, says psoriasis is fungal based. He recommends applying iodine 7% several times a day until there is a lessening of the condition.

He believes Cancer is fungal based but in that condition take internally- internally one takes 1 teaspoon of USP baking soda in a glass of spring water. Sip.

Some add a teaspoon of organic blackstrap molasses to the drink as fungi crave sugar so it acts as ‘bait.' Baking soda is a poison to fungal colonies so good results are obtained.

WORKED TEMPORARILY

Not sure this will help anyone .. but here goes .. I have had psoriasis for quite a while .. first time for about four years and then gone for four year and this time for two .. they say that it is brought on by stress .. maybe so .. but I think if you have other issues .. and I think my grandfather had it and my son has had it .. but his I think has been exasperated by drinking .. the first time I changed my diet and added good oils to my diet and did a cleanse .. I also used prayer for my terrible itching. I found that the shots and cortisone helped only for a while .. including the shots .. it only masked the real issue .. I think it has to do with leaky gut and food allergies .. keto helps a lot but not completely.. lecithin has helped in the past might try again I'm also going to try doing more magnesium and zinc.

For me Apple cider vinegar and coconut oil only help for a little bit. Cracking and burning and itching drive me nuts and nothing seems to really help for any length of time. can go four weeks with splitting hands and peeling. I can't use my hands to having four days of nice hands. I think the things I am going to try to do another cleanse and try to work on my liver and go back on keto and possibly work on my kidneys cause I've always had issues with my kidneys. Apple cider vinegar has the yeast from the mother and baking soda helps. So I'll probably start bathing with baking soda and finishing with vinegar and then doing the olive oil again which seemed to help. The other thing that helps a lot are cold showers.. maybe that will help people I don't know everybody's different..

Hi Dave,

Just read your comment and want to thank you for being so generous with your thoughts, which seem very sound to me. I do not have psoriasis, but my skin is unhealthy and I have had chronic lyme deep in my body and brain, and also have researched that chonic lyme is because of EBV- so the viral connection as well. Thanks again.

Aloe Vera

Hello Gail,

I have been wondering how you have been getting on with the Psoriasis issue?

Here are some oils that you could consider incorporating into your diet in small quantities or utilizing in a salve.

My two favourites at the moment are Hemp Seed Oil and Coconut Oil.

Most people are aware of the many virtues of Coconut Oil and it can also be used as a carrier oil for other products for treating the skin. It is soothing for skin conditions. I find the smell very pleasant. I sometimes use it for "Oil Pulling" (see this Site for more info. on that). Use extra- virgin cold-pressed etc. You probably know the drill.

A bottle of Hemp Seed Oil or Flax Oil is usually on the dinner table and we take a drizzle of it with our meal whenever we remember, having faith that it will deliver Linolenic acid and the Omegas 3 and 6, as well as some fatty acids, reputedly able to support suppleness of hair and skin.

Whilst not aspiring to win any beauty contest, the skin tends to dry out a bit as we age and our climate can be harsh on the skin, especially as we tend to spend a lot of time outdoors. It has been claimed that HSO is an effective salve for treating conditions such as Psoriasis, Eczema, and Acne.

Avocado Oil Can be used as a moisturizer and can repair / heal skin. It has five Vitamins, as well as Omega 3 potassium and folate.

Almond Oil protects and nourishes skin, has fatty acids, Vitamins E and K, as well as antioxidants.

Zinc is required for more tasks in the body than any other substance (and I thought it was Magnesium! ) and yet is quite deficient in NZ soils. That's the bad news but the good news is that women need less Zinc than men! Someone I know resolved a long-standing, red nose issue in reasonably short order with a tiny application of topical Zinc (and Castor Oil) ointment to the affected area on a regular basis. There is a test for this - talk to the pharmacist near you.

Another, often overlooked trace mineral, is Selenium, which is also lacking in NZ soils (most Americans get enough from their diet apparently). This one is also necessary for Psoriasis control and skin elasticity. Applying Selenium products to the skin can fix psoriasis and dandruff of the scalp. Low Selenium can be a factor in some cancers and in Arthritis suffering.

The skin, being our largest organ, really ought to have more attention paid to it. It is a bit like your car: we don't attend to its maintenance very well until something goes wrong!!

Gail- let us know how you are progressing please - it may assist others too!

Cheers from somewhere Down Under.


Oregano Oil, Alkalizing +

I had very good results to tame psoriasis itch by mixing about 4 tbsp olive oil, 2 capsules of Oil of Oregano (Natural Factors brand with 80 percent Carvacol) and 3 drops of DMSO. The itch went away and for the rest of the day, I kept my skin moisturized with olive oil. My psoriasis is slowly going away. I did use some left over antifungal creams I had from my last bout of psoriasis which helped a lot.

I am also drink baking soda in water or lemon water after meals to combat acidity. After drinking these for a few days I noticed that the swelling above my right knee went away after being swollen for over a year. I started doing this after a source stated that arthritis is caused by acidity.

I am also taking Bill Thompson's Special Alkalizing Combo No. 1 in the morning and evening. You can do a search for this on this site. This Combo helps with fighting candida as well.

Thank you to everyone who responded to my request for simple meal ideas. I will certainly try what has been suggested. Also thank you for this site and all its contributors over the years. I have used many remedies for myself and my family with great results.

With all that going on in this world, I believe we need to start stocking up on our remedies, meds and also on food, etc.

Stay safe and be blessed!

Curel Fragrance Free Lotion
Posted by John (South Carolina) on 04/10/2022

Hi,

My name is John.

Psoriasis appeared on my elbows, knees, wrists, ankles and on my face after a very serious automobile accident in 1979. I was very embarrassed by the patches of either very dry or red skin.

I started using a prescription from a dermatologist but I stopped because the patches appeared to be a much deeper red.

After many years of experimenting with over the counter products and some also from dermatologists, I saw a commercial on tv for Curel fragrance free lotion.

The commercial didn't speak about psoriasis. It was only focused on dry skin.

I remember a few years before reading a magazine article about psoriasis. It said it's always best to use products that are simple and more natural.

Once again I am thinking "What have I got to lose"?

I started using Curel Fragrance Free Lotion during the Winter of 2009

I would apply this lotion to all areas that have psoriasis patches before I left my home each morning and before I went to bed each night .

Please understand! I had either deep red patches of crusty patches of skin.

It did take me a week or two to control everything but I did.

I haven't thought about looking for anything more to control my psoriasis because I believe my skin looks good and there has never been any side effects since I started using Curel Fragrance Free Lotion twice each day.

You might want to test multiple fragrance free lotions to see which one works the very best for you!

I sincerely hope this will help many people!

God bless you all!

John


Apple Cider Vinegar
Posted by Teresa (CO) on 04/10/2022

hi, just wanted to say, I have read and do believe Psoriasis/Ezcema is from a too Acidic Body, same as Yeast issues. I have some spots but keep them at bay, thru cream. I used to drink AV daily in a glass of water, now have been drinking about 1/4 tsp of Baking Soda and it seems to help. One thing I drink Wine and that doesn't help me at all. Maybe I will go back to drinking the V although Soda is less expensive. Thank you everyone for your notes.

We only applied it once although it was a good soaking.

He too has had patches crop up elsewhere over the years which he just used to apply cream of all different types to try to keep it at bay, but this was worst so we decided to try ACV. After the initial treatment it was just left, no creams and thankfully all healed.

I wish you luck too.

Hi Wendy,

That is an awesome result! Was it just one application of ACV one time?

I have had psoriasis that looked just like that, but when I did, it wasn't just in one place like that, it was in many. If I ever get another one like that, I will test your remedy! Thank you for posting it!

My husband's on-off skin condition has never been actually diagnosed. He has been given cream which never worked. I am assuming it is psoriasis but can't be sure. Anyway, this patch wouldn't clear up it itched and was getting worse. I soaked cotton wool in raw apple cider vinegar and he kept it on for a day. This is the result a few weeks later.

Hello Gail,

Yes, Hope's Relief shampoo is a wonder that I wrote about on this Site a while ago now: I am glad that you are having success with it. The dreaded itchy scalp is held at bay with Hope's.

The conditioner they put out offers additional protection but I get by without it.

I don't need to shampoo as often either.

Unfortunately, it does not seem to readily lather in our water, does it lather in yours OK?

I still use it though, as it trumps all others I have tried - natural too, which is a plus.

I also use a 50/50 spray of ACV and H2O and leave on to soak for a while after the shampooing.

Malcolm Harker Herbals stock a skin, itch remover (again an NZ product) which is effective.

Cheers,

M

Please look up on herbal legacy.com and follow the Natural Procedures for Systemic Yeast Overgrowth and Leaky Gut Syndrome. For Intestinal Sweep I used Oil of Oregano with Carvacol (80%) Properties. You can pretty well substitute other brands for products listed. Just compare ingredients. The Lower Bowel Formula is a bowel cleanse. After I finished the procedures, I stayed on high doses of Oil of Oregano spread throughout the day. (I took 2 capsules every one to two hours while I was up) I am also using it on the scalp. Also find other candida cleanse products to alternate with the Oil of Oregano after 3 weeks. Then get back on it. It took away the itch and my skin is clearing. During the procedures I only ate Vegetables, nuts and seeds as recommended. Tough bit necessary. No sugar! I have struggled with skin issues mainly due to allergies and eating sugars. Learned my lesson and eating better now.

Hello,

Can you mention which shampoo you used? My daughter has SEVERE scalp issues and just recently developed intense itching, swelling and redness on her hands, wrists and arms. Thoughts? Thanks so much!

How does this recommendation help anybody if the application method and dosage aren't provided? As Eira asked almost five years ago, is this topical or oral? Dosage?

maybe an infection?

well I been dealing with psorasis for almost 10 ten years now. and its driving me crazy. so I think im having a throat, ears, and stomach problem. an infection I guess. a few months back I bought pepcid complete tablets and prilosec for heartburn(1 tablet a day) and after a few days I noticed the psorasis slowed down. kind of weird. so I did another colon cleanse and it looks like its slowly clearing again. but I'm still dealing with itchy throat and ears. ordered some stuff to deal with that. we'll see what happens.

Avoid Nickle-Containing Foods

Update: soy seems to be the trigger for the psoriasis or rash. I applied ACV with paper towels and instant relief! Also, I used Sarna itch cream and O'Keefe's at the base of my scalp to “break up” the rash. It is clearing up. I also took baths with coconut oil and one day did an ACV bath. Stinky, but effective! Thanks, Earth Clinic! Check ingredients at your local restaurants for allergens such as soy and caramel coloring (causes cancer).

High-Dose Vitamin C, Zinc and Vitamin D

I got rid of my psoriasis with vitamin D, zinc, and high doses of oral vitamin C!

I've had psoriasis since I was in middle school. I don't take medication, I don't drink and I eat pretty healthy so it's pretty well controlled. Occasionally I will still get a spot that pops up here and there.

Recently I was looking for a good vitamin C product to take in conjunction with my Vitamin D and zinc just for immune support. I happened across an article called The High Dose Oral Vitamin C Protocol for Cancer and Viral Infections on a site called Chris Beat Cancer. I read the article and figured if this guy beat cancer by taking high doses of vitamin C, surely it would work to strengthen my immune system.

I ordered 2 pounds of non GMO water soluble vitamin c in a fine powder form on Amazon. After about a month of following the protocol laid out on the Chris Beat Cancer site, my psoriasis is gone! What a pleasant surprise!

Beware of this advice if you have a nickel allergy. Look up foods containing nickel. Beans and nuts are high in nickel.

I recently developed a psoriasis condition. The dermatologist said it was the citrus shampoo I was using that caused it. I've used the same shampoo for many years. I started thinking about a nickel allergy I have and looked up nickel-containing foods. BINGO! Nickel is in coffee, canned goods and beans, for example. I switched shampoos just to be safe. I purchased one on Amazon called Honey skin. It worked like a charm. The inflammation is very low now.

Ted's Remedies, Cure a Candida Infection with Herbal Remedies! (earthclinic.com)

Molybdenum is particularly useful for reducing the symptoms of Candida overgrowth and for avoiding Candida Die-off. It helps to process and expel toxins like acetaldehyde that are produced by Candida albicans as a byproduct of its metabolism. Molybdenum has other health benefits too.

Molybdenum: An Essential Trace Mineral » The Candida Diet

www.thecandidadiet.com/molybdenum/Cortisol allows candida colonization in a couple of ways. 1. Cortisol increases blood sugar: Cortisol stimulates gluconeogenesis – production of sugar. In a normal person, cortisol also balances this by triggering conversion of glucose to glycogen when glucose is in excess.

Urine Therapy + ACV

I've had Psoriasis for over two years compounded by other health stuff. Itching really bad and noticed like others that eating sugar made it worse at night. So started cutting the sugar- and then began dipping my foot in urine (an old skin repair/ healing remedy) and then ACV topically or coconut oil, my foot has gone back to normal not a belt of thick angry skin...I'm realising I need to clear candida and do probiotics to sort my other health problems out but it's great to have results on one level. I really appreciate this website and the community.

I have had psoriasis since 3rd grade. I am approaching 80 and finally have relief from the itching and sore patches. I refused to try internal medicines and saw a commercial for over the counter remedy Gold Bond. 99% of visual patches have healed.
