Natural Psoriasis Remedies

You will find natural psoriasis remedies in this article. Psoriasis symptoms include excessive growth of skin in patches anywhere on the body, most often found in folds of skin at the elbows knees or other joints. It can be very unsightly. Arthritis may be connected. Causes are unknown, but I suspect it is due to a poor immune response, and from stress.

Modern medicine treats psoriasis with steroid medications or petroleum creams which are suppressive and can be dangerous. Severe cases of psoriasis have used chemotherapeutic medicines that are toxic and carry dangerous side effects.

From the natural perspective, psoriasis is the body’s response to stress and immune function problems, showing up in people who have skin weakness. There is also a possibility to move forward with accompanying arthritis, for some people. It is also a condition of blood toxicity.

What you can do naturally is to start with your diet by removing tobacco, alcohol, coffee, sodas, and fast food. Always exercise (move) moderately.

Natural Healing Protocol — First, choose an herb. Then add a cell salt or cell salt solution. Finally, choose the homeopathic remedy that fits your situation best. Combining supplements will do more to support your body’s ability to function properly than using just one. Your ability to heal will depend on the severity and length of time symptoms have been present.
