Some people say that they have seen an improvement by cutting out certain things from their diet - including alcohol. However, some people have also modified their diet and seen no improvement.
I would recommend you simply try it for yourself - give yourself at least 4 weeks to see any significant change (or not).

I now know I am one of the lucky people who managed to more or less clear up psoriasis having suffered badly for 7 or so years.I went down the route of an alkaline diet having tried all kinds of creams and gels prescribed by my doctor that simply didn’t work.I am not saying it was the miracle cure but along with diet I used a uvb sunbed and maybe the initial slight improvement was the catalyst to my psoriasis almost disappearing.
Hallo,
I cleared out all food which contains wheat (and no alcohol) two years ago. That was helping a lot reducing psoriasis for me.
But you need to be careful, wheat is also in many products you would not expect it.
I am thinking more and more that this can be a help. I'm trying the alkaline food thing, too. I am less itchy and less scaly, for sure.
I think some people heal quick (see Hanna Sillitoe website and books). However, some don't. I'm in the slower category, so I am giving it a few months to 'heal from within'.
Whatever happens, it's definitely made me healthier and helped me eat more veg. Friends say I look better (they just see my face!), so that's encouraging. I've also got more energy and sleep better.
I am cutting out nightshades (tomatoes, aubergines, potatoes, peppers, chilli/paprika). This is hard for me, and these were all my favourite foods. But I've adapted and don't miss them much now.
I also avoid dairy and gluten. Sounds extreme but there are some fab recipes for cakes and biscuits in Ella Woodward books and online. So I can still enjoy treats, in amongst all the veg :0P
Hi
Yes diet has alot to do with it.
Red foods..Tomatoes etc should be avoided.
Eat lots of fish.
Take probiotics.
Lots of water to flush the toxins. Preferably with lemon.

Hi LEL
I use topical treatments to manage my psoriasis but would like to try a more holistic approach. Your post re diet is a useful start. Can you recommend any particular probiotics that might be useful

Oh so did I but I was so desperate I researched so much about what was going on in my body and the immune system.
You can go to the chemist. They will recommend. Or online at AMAZON. etc.
It will cost you around £15 upwards.
No particular make.

There is a great book called healing psoriasis. You can buy it on amazon and it lays out food that cause flare ups, how to manage the disease through diet , supplements and more. Its written by a scientist with over 20 years experience. Ive seen big changes to my condition when following it.The path on my face completely cleared within 2 weeks
