Suggest using Shaklee's Optiflora. This two-product system uses new technology to protect beneficial microflora during th rigors of shipping, storage, and the acidic journey through your stomach. Other products claim live microflora at the time of manufature. Shaklee guarantees the delivery of live microflora (500 million) to your intestines.

This two-product system includes Probiotic (Bifidus & Acidophilus...microflora) + Prebiotic (FOS...food source for microflora).

So often what is going on inside our bodies will manifest itself to the surface such as psoriasis, cold sores, acne, etc.

Hope this helps and best wishes.

Answer 2

I had a 13 year history of psoriasis, though I was in good health otherwise. But these severe large, thick and scaly excoriated plaques on my neck, ears, trunk and limbs ruined the way I was leading my life. I would be with red, inflamed itchy skin for most part of the year and these silvery scales would seem to be erupting without any reason. To make matters worse, blisters would appear over already red and itching skin. It was living hell.

I was treated with various options but nothing seemed to be working. Some of the treatments that I underwent in this depressing period of 13 years included tar preparation, tropical steroids and anthralin. I was also given light therapy many times but everything I tried would give me temporary relief.

And soon, after a few days I would be plagued with the situation again. In one of those moments when I was completely lost I stumbled upon this website just by chance. I read it and felt that as if someone had put the story my life on this web page. I was thoroughly convinced that if ANYONE can cure me of condition, it would be you.

And was I right, or what. I started recovering within 3 days of starting this treatment. Something that had become a painful part of me for 13 years was actually getting healed! My ears are healed and my neck is smooth again!. I am a month into the treatment and I have never felt better in my life!

Answer 4

She could use a steroid cream such as "Eumovate" - that is what I used for my psoriasis. However, instructions say it isn't meant for that condition but my chemist said don't worry.

In the long term she needs to learn to relax and not get stressed about things - which is the main cause of this condition. If she can identify what stresses her she should change that part of her life - e.g. change job, boyfriend, accomodation, etc.

If she doesn't do any of the above she should at least see a Doctor.

Psoriasis is a very common skin condition and affect everyone of any age groups. The reasons are still unclear and there are a lot of different treatments out there. One of them I believe is switching to alternative medicine. Dr Bach remedies is a very good (helped my sister with exma) alternative natural medicine. It's made of flower essence and you put few drops in a glass of water and drink it. It also comes in a form of cream to use directly on the skin. Best is to use it combined, so it can be healed from the inside and also from the outside. This product can be found in stores such as Holland and Barrett. I also believe in calendula cream, it's the best for skin and its a natural healer. Again products such as calendula tea and creams are also very effective.
Hope this helps.

Answer 6

My husband uses a cream called Dovonex also known as Calcipotriol this is a vitamin D cream which really helps. However the first thing your friend needs to do is to go to her GP and ask to be referred to a dermatologist as that is the only way she will get the right treatment for her.

My husband also has had PUVA treatment, this is UVA light treatment which really helps psoriasis. This can be had under the NHS.

Answer 7

My sister has it too.

She can ask her doctor about 'light therapy' which is based on Ultra Violet Light.

She can also try using "Dermasalve" toiletry products which don't contain irritants.

If she has psoriasis on her scalp as well, she can try rinsing her hair with a mixture of nettle tea and cider vinegar after a shower.

A doctor may prescribe creams and lotions which she should use everyday as well as using other moisturisers/emollients.

hi i am a nurse, if you are in england the only real thing which works is a steriod treatment called diphranol, we would treat patients by giving them daily baths, treating them with the dipranol, on affected areas only, if it is applied to good skin it will burn it off, and then the patient has to wear a body stocking, you can only have this treatment done in a hospital, you have to be trained to put the steriod on, your friend would be in for a week, as we start on a very low dose and work up higher taking extra care so she doesn't react
