Psoriasis Flaky Red Skin? There is a Real Cure
Natural Cures for Psoriasis-sufferers Through Holistic Methods
Aug 13, 2008
The medical community agrees that the cause of Psoriasis (pronounced sor-ia-sis) is not understood although some believe there could be a genetic link.
It manifests as red, scaly and inflamed patches on the skin but can also be in the form of pustules (blisters filled with non infectious pus). It is an embarrassing condition that in some people also becomes a form of arthritis in the joints known as Psoriatic Arthritis.
The Alternative Viewof Psoriasis
The complementary health view of psoriasis is somewhat different. As with many of the “modern diseases” (e.g. IBS, type 2 diabetes, eczema, etc) it is believed that psoriasis arises through a combination of toxicity and fungal infections of the gut.
It is worsened by poor lifestyle choices, poor nutrition, stress and emotional imbalances and responds remarkably to detoxification and holistic treatment.
Psoriasis Cured the Natural Way
Natural healing is a process where the body is brought back into balance. Our modern lifestyles often undermine the body’s defences:
- Toxicity in the air, food and water build up in the body
- Antibiotics and other medications cause fungi to take over in the gut
- Stress undermines the immune system
In order to redress the balance it is necessary to detoxify the body, to cleanse the gut of harmful pathogens and rebuild the gut flora, and to learn how to cope with stress or make some lifestyle choices.
Lifestyle Choices Make a Difference
Often people suffer from stress because they place too high a burden of work upon themselves. This causes the body to pump out stress hormones (adrenaline and cortisol) the whole time. This upsets the way the body functions.
Women can be working full time and yet running a home and coping with children. Men have similar pressures to struggle with. Society as a whole needs to ask the question “Is this fair and is this conducive to a healthy society?"
The individual may need to consider:
- Working part time rather than full time
- Reduce their expenditure so they can reduce their working hours
- Lowering the standards –a heavy burden of expectations is often accepted as normal, but it may not be sustainable
- Everything costs – a big mortgage takes a lot of repaying and expensive consumer goods take a lot of upkeeping
- Simplify one’s lifestyle – get a job closer to home, or with less responsibility.
- Spend less. By making lifestyle choices we can reduce the burden of stress and thereby enable the body to function properly.

- Ionic Detox – a system that encourages and speeds up detoxification
- Food Intolerance Testing – identify foods that can be making the problem worse
- Counselling – to help you work out where the stresses and strains are in your life
Never say Nevert o Good Health
Many people are resigned to ill-health and close the door to any prospect of healing. This attitude is stopping them from moving forward. By staying open minded and being prepared to try something different they are inviting change into their lives giving them the prospect of better health, well being, and better quality of life for the future.
