Natural Psoriasis Treatments - 5 Remedies To Try Today!

Anyone who suffers with psoriasis knows it is the flare-ups and the symptoms that can really drive you crazy! Intense itching, painful sores, bleeding skin; it is a nightmare for people with psoriasis. There is no cure for psoriasis, and that is so very frustrating. To many people, this can be quite depressing. However, I am about to share with you 5 natural psoriasis treatments you'll want to try today! These 5 natural remedies can help a great deal to relieve the agonizing symptoms of psoriasis.

1. First, try is to increase the amount of Omega-3 fatty acids in your diet. Omega 3-fatty acids are found in fish oil, among other things. The easiest way to add fish oils daily, is through capsules. Psoriasis is known to be an autoimmune disease and fish oils are a great help for this type of disease. Fish oils can also help to relieve joint pain for people who have psoriatic arthritis. They are relatively inexpensive and can be found easily in your local health food stores, drug stores, and vitamin stores.


2. Another remedy to try is begin taking a probiotic enzyme. Probiotic enzymes will help you to digest food better and more efficiently. When a person has a psoriasis flare-up, the patches of skin become very inflamed. Probiotic enzyme's also contain an anti-inflammatory chemical. This chemical can potentially greatly help with controlling psoriasis outbreaks. These enzymes also help in maintaining a healthy balance in the stomach, and will help to strengthen the immune system. This can be quite effective as psoriasis is known to be caused by a weakened immune system.


3. The third treatment I want to share with you is olive leaf extract. This extract is an all-natural antibiotic and sometimes will work more efficiently than a traditional antibiotic. Again, inexpensive and easy to come by, you can get olive leaf extract from any health store. Begin by taking 2-3 capsules a day for three months, then switch to 4 a day for one month.


4. The next natural psoriasis treatment you can and should do to help control symptoms of psoriasis, is to eat super foods. Super foods are those foods which are very high in fiber, they are antioxidants, and they are 100% organic! It would only take adding just one cup of your choice of many super foods each day to increase energy, increase metabolism, and most importantly, to help keep those unwanted psoriasis symptoms away! Some examples of super foods are; dark fruits which include blueberries, acai berries, and dark cherries. There are many more. Just doing a quick internet search will pull up many results on super foods and give you great list of foods to add to your daily diet!


5. Lastly, non-prescription psoriasis treatments such as natural moisturizers are very important for those suffering with psoriasis. You can find a wide variety of over-the-counter skin moisturizers that may prove to be quite helpful in treating your psoriasis symptoms. If you look around in a drug store or health food store you can find a number of all "natural" moisturizers (It is best to avoid any scented ones.) Keeping the inflamed areas well hydrated will at the very least, help to keep your skin from flaking, cracking, bleeding etc. You may have to try more than one as some will work better than others. Try a few different ones until you find one that helps to relieve the symptoms. Natural moisturizers are highly unlikely to cause side effects, so find one that works well for you and stick with it! The key is consistency. Use the moisturizer day and night to keep symptoms under control.

Although there is no known cure for psoriasis, there are natural remedies you can use daily that can greatly help to control the symptoms. Start today with the above 5 suggestions, and you are likely to see some relief quickly!
