Yakult to help psoriasis

Yakult contains sugar, AND glucose-fructose syrup, AND maltodextrin . . . . . . .not exactly a particularly natural product should someone be wanting to restrict certain processed items from their diet.

Hi Guys, I have been taking it for 27 days and i have seen an improvement in my skin all over BUT i have also made a lot of other changes so i cannot say if this is a factor in my improvement. Some of the other changes are: - removing red meat, tomato and potato - taking saffron tea at night. - taking warm lemon water in morning - increasing overall fruit intake, especially blueberries. - acupuncture once a week...I truly believe this works as one stubborn spot has not changed with diet until the lady treated this spot which is now practically gone.

Hi Wendy: my comment on yakult was not directed towards yourself, but a general reminder that some probiotic drinks and yoghurts etc can contain significant amounts of sugar. I am aware that some people (perhaps many people) modifying their diets to try and combat psoriasis are trying to cut down on sugar. Actimel is another popular brand with a significant sugar content (both it and yakult taste quite sweet so it should not really be a surprise to people).
