Psoriasis is taking over my whole body

Posted By Debra (South Carolina, US) on 04/17/2015

I hope some one out there can help me. I have been fighting with psoriasis for 6 years now and have tried diets and doterra oils internally and skin doctors have been NO help, and have spent alot of money. Psoriasis is taking over my whole body. I have small patches everywhere, I even have it inside my eardrums. It drives me crazy itching inside my ear where I can't scratch it. My hair has thinned out and even my eye lashes are gone. Ihave put on weight like crazy. I have just came across a site about turpentine and how it helps with a lot of things. Will it help me with my psoriasis? Can some one PLEASE HELP! Thanks from Debra

I know this is controversial but if you can get your hands on cannabis salve, it will help a lot and you get no psychoactive qualities from topical. Good luck

Dora, Years ago I had patches of psoriasis/eczema on my ankles and elbows and they were getting bigger. I decided not to go the medication route and focused on "The budwig protocol." To find out more, go to www.budwig-videos.com and watch how to make the main meal - which is cottage cheese and flaxseed oil plus other items, blended. After about 3 months, I had no continued problems and the inflammation, itching went away. Till this day, I still eat this meal (which is delicious btw) about 3 times a week for breakfast. This protocol is used primarily for cancer but, the science behind it's use is solid.

Just eat the main meal daily for about a couple months to see if this will work or alleviate your symptoms.

I know how you feel!

MyWay :D

Debra; Here is a web search I did, there wasn't much in the way of complete solution but I hope it helps. Your eating habits could play a big role in how it aggravates your condition more.

Also try coconut oil in place of lotions/ Please try to get organic/virgin oil it's best this can be used in your hair as well as all over your body, I suggest you get another small container of coconut oil so you can ingest(eat) this oil as it will work inside as well, you can put this oil on toast-I use it every morning on my bran muffins/my husband uses it on his oatmeal every morn..I have helped most of my pets and my self with ACV and coconut oil..Keep up with what ever makes you comfortable, there are no real quick remedies as of yet.Keep in touch with us on Earth Clinic, I would like to hear how you are doing.Also try at a herbal store or whole foods to get castile soap.Keep in touch and good luck.

Perhaps you are low in Vitamin D3. Have you had your Vitamin D3 levels checked?

You may be low in D3 according to the article below:

From: http://www.peoplespharmacy.com/2013/03/18/vitamin-d-zaps-psoriasis/

I have had psoriasis for more than 35 years. A few years ago, my doctor suggested vitamin D, as my blood level was low. Much to my surprise, my psoriasis began to disappear almost immediately. Several patches had proved impossible to cure with other medications. When my blood test showed a normal level of vitamin D, the doctor asked me to cut back the dosage. I did and the psoriasis returned. I now take 5,000 units of vitamin D capsules per day and that keeps my psoriasis in check. Regular monitoring of my vitamin D level shows that I am in the middle of the acceptable range with this dosage.
