Psoriasis

 

I found a book with information on what psoriasis actually is, and where it comes from. I went to a dermatologist that said quite frankly "it's not bad enough, so there's nothing we can do" and basically that it was just a skin problem and other wise i was perfectly healthy. If you are "lucky" enough to have it bad enough to treat you are given drugs to supress the skin from growing faster than normal & put thru a number of light treatments in most cases that eventually may lead to other skin problems.

 

well...

 

after reading this book i realized in fact i was far from it. Psoriasis is a break down of the intestines to the point where they allow toxins to seep thru the walls into the bloodstream. Your organs (liver & kidneys) must take over and work to eliminate these toxins. Once those become overworked the secondary defenses (skin & lungs) now step up to help. The skin regenerates faster than normal to attempt in getting rid of these toxins. This causes a build up of skin and lesions are formed. There are several different types of psoriasis a person can have, and it varies in severity. Know that diet & exercise can play a HUGE role in clearing even the worst cases of psoriasis. 

 

If anyone in here has any questions about this please please speak up and let me know. I know from having psoriasis for almost 8 years before finding this book. I became so exhaust not being able to find any HEALTHY & logical solutions to my problem i began to accept that i'd just have to live with it. the fact is YOU DONT. After being able to clear mine up like i have i want to help ANYONE i possibly can.

 

Thanks for reading!!!

 

I'd like to hear your theory on how it is caused by a fungus.

 

I know i could break down step by step for you how it is actually started in the intestines, and why your skin comes into play. Furthermore I can actually link psoriasis with several other diseases that are linked to the intestines. And give you substantial evidence that it is directly related to the intestines. I can also present several examples of how food & diet has been directly related to the condition. Which further demonstrates the connection it has to the digestive track. I can present you pictures of people that have had sucessful results in clearning their body of psorisis once better understanding the nature of it.

 

Again I'd like to hear your equivalent argument to it being a fungus.

 

Please if you are going to come into my thread & bash what i have said have something to back it up with... and if you don't please don't waste my or anyone else's time with false claims. Thank you.

 

***for those that are in fact interested in what i have to say about this i've updated my original post to read a bit clearer. After rereading it i realized in my excitement on the topic i began to ramble, so it's a bit clearer now & details what i was trying to say better for you. Thanks :)

 

It's most certainly not a fungus. It's quite frankly dry skin. caused by a reaction to toxins within your body... Dermatologists unfortunately are clueless to this condition & falsely treat people with drugs & light treatments that cause problems in other areas.

 

This book is not claiming to have "cures"... it's a doctor who has traveled the world studying and working with patients to clear this condition no matter how severe the patient has been. 

 

It's the best 25$ i have ever & will ever spend. Quite literally changed my life.

 

Healing Psoriasis - The Natural Alternative

 

by Dr. John O.A Pagano

 

and actually... i bought mine very spur of the moment at my excitement when i discovered this doctor was logically able to link psoriasis's cause to chrones disease & colitis which run in my family. but here it is on amazon for 12$

 

Anyroad, I read in a medicinal herb book once that Aloe Vera helps it. Luckily enough, we had an aloe plant here at the house. I tried it for about a month or two. The lesions around my hairline went away (gradually) as well as a few on my shoulders and torso. Unfortunately, our Aloe plant died.

But, my Aunt recommened tea tree oil body/face wash for my acne. So I started using that. Within two weeks, my acne was clearing up and it's helped my psoriasis. You can get it as conditioner, cream, lotion, shampoo, skin wash, etc.  So I recommend that for psoriasis as well. You can find it at Sally's Beauty Supply or go to www.puritan.com to get a Puritan's Pride vitamin catalog. You can also order it online.

 

You can also try hydrocortizone cream (sp???). It helps with the redness and it's thicker than regular lotion, so it keeps the flakes away.

Salt water helps as well as sunlight/tanning beds.

I'd never heard anything about psoriasis being an intestinal until now. I read from the magazine, Psoriasis Connections, that it is an immune disorder. However, I'm not disagreeing with the intestinal theory. That theory, from the way Gsxxy, it could tie in with it. But I've never actually heard of the intestinal theory.

I hadn't heard of it as being a fungus either. No offense, but that I don't believe. You'd figured if it was a fungus, they could give us an antibiotic topical solution to put on it and it would go away. Sometimes these lesions pop up after a cut, scratch, etc. There's been quite a few times that I've acidentally scratched a scab and within a couple of days there's a new psoriasis lesion.

My mother once told me that there is a shot that is supposed to help with psoriasis, but it damages your liver (I think she said liver...either that or kidneys).

I seriously hope this helps.

Gsxxy, I'd love to hear more about the food affect psoriasis if you find the time.
