Hi there I’m new to this forum and have had psoriasis for a year now but it has moved into psoriatic arthritis which I’m on methotrexate for. I’m amazed at how many of you have seen incredible results from blueberries so will start tomorrow. Has anyone had any good news with blueberries and psoriatic arthritis? Does it help with this too? Many thanks Lauren

Hello all..... So, after reading with interest I started on the blueberry crusade at Christmas and have stuck firm to the regimen since. I had a really bad couple of weeks earlier this month but carry on with the plan regardless. Incidentally I have also read with interest the Vit D discussion and tomorrow will be day 14 with a Vit D supplement. Other things include moisturising with Bio oil dry skin gel and when its itchy using Aloe Vera gel..... Never been as medicated in my life. I can report that mainly since the Vit D I can see some improvement which i am really excited about (right elbow is the problem area in the main) Hopefully some light at the end of the tunnel..... slowly slowly :-)

Thats amazing Vicky. Keep going. Get your vit d levels checked by a doctor, you might need more.

Read this thread a week ago and started eating at least 20-30 blueberries and the odd few pecans, immediately along with applying moisturiser very regularly (golden blend hand cream & neutrogena hand cream) and I can say that already my plaque psoriasis has stopped developing plaques, skin is a lot smoother and colour is turning lighter everyday. Thank you for suggesting this treatment as in the past only light therapy has really worked but returns shortly after stopping, and steroid creams usually make it worse if there’s any breaks in application

@ChayS That's fantastic news :) Long may it continue :)

Hi everyone, My father and uncle both have psoriasis. My first flare up was in 2011, when I was about 19 years old, diagnosed as moderate to severe (all over my body, hands, and sometimes my face and ears). Doctors gave me oral steroids and cream, but my PPP would rebound even stronger so I stopped taking the medications. I became a recluse and tried to not do much but lay down and sleep because it irritated my skin to do anything. After a few of years of this, I started listening to my body (specifically my gut) and it told me to take a break from meat and to just eat vegetables, berries, and nuts. Even though I was always hungry, it could tell this berry and nut diet made my stomach 'happy'. Within three weeks my moderate to severe PPP disappeared. My body (and gut) held the answer the whole time, I just had to listen to it. Being a scientist and mathematician (BS in applied math, currently working on PhD in Bioengineering), I researched online and found that fasting may help 'restart' the immune system, and psoriasis is an immune system disorder. Better science needs to be done to find real answers, but maybe a combination of 1) listening to your stomach 2) fasting 3) eating berries may help others too. My flare-ups come back intermittently, specifically after I eat eggs or a lot of meat every day. But, if I skip eggs, I can eat meat most days of the week and my skin stays clear. I had a flare up again this past month Feb-March 2021 on my arms and legs. I cut eggs from my diet, reduced meat consumption to about twice a week, and ate only between the hours of 6pm-10pm. I could snack on nuts, berries (blueberries specifically), and water throughout the day. My flare-up disappeared in two weeks. Hopefully this info helps others

@PerryMuir I get mine from Aldi Tesco Sainsburys or Morrisons - so it's whatever they sell - I have tried them all - just depends which store I go to on whatever week Lol Always have the fresh because I don't like the frozen - just personal choice - I eat about 10 per day and so far so good :) Unless it is just a coincidence? But whatever it is I am so grateful - BB's ROCK ;) Hope they help you too.

Hi Everyone Just thought that I should pop by to let you know how the blueberries are helping me. I have been eating them everyday since August last year - I have about 10 per day - and so far so good - I have changed nothing else - I still get the pustules on my feet that eventually go brown and then come off but the skin underneath has been ok - so far so good - last summer I had the most horrendous break out and it was like walking on glass as the skin just didn't heal - so dry cracked and sometimes bleeding and the itch was unbearable - it was petty grim - I have no idea if it is the blueberries or just coincidence but BB's can do no harm so I shall be sticking with them. Hope you are all ok and staying as safe as you can be - I am one vaccine down - no reaction - and No 2 is due next month. Happy days for me :) So for any newcomers please do try these little berries :)
