Natural Cures For Psoriasis – 6 Ways To Start Healing

Avoid All Food Allergies

Food allergies and sensitivities can play havoc with the skin. If you do have food allergies and sensitivities, your body has to expend energy to deal with the ongoing reactions rather than use that energy for healing your skin.

An ALCAT test can pinpoint food sensitivities via a blood test with hundreds of food antigens. They’ll look for clumping reactions underneath the microscope when a food antigen is added to a drop of your blood. The severity of the reaction determines how bad your sensitivity is towards the food tested and a report rates the sensitivities for you. The lab also provides a sample menu of how you can avoid the foods you’re sensitive to.

Avoiding food allergies is another long-term strategy as one of the natural cures for psoriasis. Food allergies may also be related to a Leaky Gut Syndrome, so herbs such as slippery elm should be used to heal the gut and prevent new food allergies from starting.

Fumaric Acid Topical Preparations and Supplements

This is a treatment used in other countries such as Japan, Switzerland and the Netherlands. The preparations are made from fumaric acid monoethyl ester and fumaric acid diethyl ester. Supplements along with lotions and scalp treatment are available in other countries.

Torf Natural Moor Mud

This is an organic mud mixture of humic acid, fulvic acid, amino acids, minerals and plant hormones that is essentially a plant extract. It helps reduce inflammation and detoxify the body. Although it’s not as specific as the other natural cures for psoriasis, it has promise, as it’s used to clear up eczema and other disorders in medical spas throughout Europe.

Of all the possible natural cures for psoriasis, which ones will you decide to use?
