Psoriasis legions appear most prominently around the large joints (knees and elbows) and cause great discomfort and itching. It is suspected that a virus triggers psoriasis legions. Many psoriasis patient also suffer from constipation. Many psoriasis patients have had a severe case of hepatitis in their past (Some have had hepatitis and did not know it). Another factor that most psoriasis patients have in common is that they consumed large amounts of hydrogenated oils (margarine) in the past.

In traditional medicine psoriasis is another incurable illness among many. Psoriasis can only be traditionally managed rather than completely cured with ointments and external skin treatments. These ointments and cosmetic procedures are supposed to make the patient feel comfortable but do not get to the root cause of psoriasis. Available Psoriasis treatments can be classified as medicine of the first degree among the seven levels of medicine. The current Psoriasis medications are expensive, not offering a cure and often have serious side effects. 

Psoriasis is an extreme YIN illness as all skin disorders are (all skin illnesses are YIN because they tend to spread). Many psoriasis patients discover that sea water is very helpful to their condition. If sea water is helpful then, what about the right foods? Please read Medicinal benefits are found only in exotic, expensive and bitter herbal supplement imported from far away land. Sea water is indeed helpful to a psoriasis patient because it is rich in salt (yang). But the foods that are rich in organic sodium are even more beneficial. You can read more about the relation between Psoriasis and YIN and YANG in the seven laws of the universe.

With the right selection of foods psoriasis is completely curable. It can be treated with a carefully designed diet that is slightly YANG on the whole. Psoriasis is gradually cured following this diet. The cure is permanent and not superficial. Psoriasis can be treated and cured with the right foods especially the right vegetables. The improvements are usually quick, but some psoriasis patients experience a temporary but less severe psoriasis eruption. This is called a healing crisis as the body slowly throws off toxins from the inside out. Gradually this healing crisis diminishes and a complete recovery from psoriasis takes place in time. The many of patients that have come to us for psoriasis natural treatment have been completely cured over time. The recovery period varies from weeks to months. These patients are a living testimony that food is best medicine.

In Addition to the diet for curing psoriasis, our recommended diet plan sometimes includes temporary home remedies such as compresses and soakings with instructions on how to make these home remedies. These home remedies provide immediate relief for psoriasis sufferers during the first few days and weeks of going on the diet, and until the diet begins to take effect in curing psoriasis completely.

Most people have come to believe that macrobiotics means eating exotic Japanese foods. This is a misconception. To cure Psoriasis you do not have to eat Japanese foods. You have to first understand the principles of natural balance explained in macrobiotics in order to understand what eating and other habits have led you to develop Psoriasis. Then, macrobiotic principles will help you determine what foods you will have to eat in order to cure Psoriasis. Read If macrobiotics means eating locally grown foods, why are we eating Japanese foods? If you are a psoriasis patient and tried macrobiotics (particularly the #7 diet) but found it did not work for you, then the foods you have selected are not appropriate for your condition. Please read: The standard macrobiotic diet does not work for some people. Why?

It is true that food is best medicine for psoriasis. But some foods help cure psoriasis, and some make the condition worse. The food pyramid is only a general guideline and does not provide any specific information in the natural treatment of psoriasis.

Food is best medicine. With a carefully designed diet plan for treating psoriasis there is no need for vitamin and mineral supplements. Some vitamin and mineral supplements can have severe adverse side effects on a psoriasis patient when taken randomly or in large doses. We recommend against taking any vitamin and mineral supplements for psoriasis patients until they are completely cured. However, if supplements are desired, only natural food-based supplements should be selected and taken in moderate amounts. As mentioned earlier, Psoriasis is a YIN illness. Vitamin C, which is considered a healthy supplement, is also a YIN vitamin. That is why vitamin C will actually exacerbate the condition of a psoriasis patient and make it spread faster. And beware of alleged miracle cures in faraway lands.
