Oxipor
Val in South Seattle, WA USA -Hello, I feel that after 40 years of living with psoriasis off and on I am a walking laboratory. From vitamins to chemicals to diets to emphasis on happy thoughts to skipping on the edge of new hair raising techniques I am so glad I said 'No" to 40 years ago. There is one thing that works in 5 - 7 days and is made from 'coal tar'. The product is called "Oxipor' and is a thinned out-coal tar, but the price of it is like 100 dollars an ounce and medical insurance will not cover it! Whoever has priced this out of this world, can go you know where. And I will say that after all these years of not 'messing' around in this world of real contagious diseases, maybe it is just a divine thing to separate us from the rest. If you check out www.imhotepinc.com you will find the triple strength grapefruit seed extract that kills any fungus. I take this, do not have candida, and still have psoriasis, off and on. I believe that psoriasis is a condition caused by a deficiency. My own observation is that when I am very stressed emotionally and physically from being bogged down with no up-lifts for a period of time, (my body -human factory does not make everything in proper order, sloppy production), then I am susceptible to outbreaks. From the age of 33 to 46 I ate brewer's yeast everyday. This increased my strength exponentially and I did not have to wear reading eye glasses until I was 46 as brewer's yeast is high in the high protein needed for building muscle tissue. It also is high in the B vitamins which are for the nervous system. I call them the 'Happy B's" for Be Happy. But, alas, with all this 'power' behind me it still is not enough to combat psoriasis. There are only 2 of us, myself and my father's sister who got the condition, and both of us almost died before the age of 5, her from the dred "Flu' of the twenty's and me from plain neglect. So you see, even if one's health is 'top notch' as mine was for so many years, it does not combat psoriasis. My recommendation is to 'forget' about it. Live your life. One doctor told me that some people get heart conditions, others get diabetes etc. So instead, I have psoriasis. He said I should be thankful as it's better than a heart condition. I am grateful that I did not succumb to the new prescriptions, methods such as the ultra-violet light that is cancerous causing (now documented), and the new humera medicine that takes 4 weeks for effects to show (with all it's possible side effects like death) find it funny that the 4 weeks is exactly what it takes anyone's body to produce 'new' skin. My sincere belief is that if I won the lottery in a mere 2 days I would be 'whole', I really believe this. Somehow, all the nerve endings, enzymes, happy thoughts etc would, in a blinding flash, combine in such a fashion everything would be perfect and take away all the nasties, similar to Prednisone (cortisone) except without taking away (permanently) any eyesight. You know that cortisone can take away any psoriasis plaques in a mere 3 days, more or less. I would be living with a heart condition, blinded or somethng else very tragic if I listened to any other voice except my Grandmother's from Heaven, saying to me "Don't! Don't do it!" You can't live a whole lifetime on the prescriptions recommended. Think about it. Psoriasis comes and goes. Life is precious, with or without psoriasis.

Neem oil for psoriasis of the scalp
c in New York -I've tried everything... including tea tree, apple cider vinegar, hydrogen peroxide, jojoba, calendula, rx's and combinations of everything above.
What has helped me IMMENSELY is organic neem oil (purchased online) I rub it into my scalp & sleep w/it on, it smells earthy but not horrible & amazingly it WORKS. I wash it out in the morning and after about three treatments, my flare up is gone...
I've also used a salicylic acid serum (ecco bella) to keep the scales from returning (every other day after a flare up) my scalp is amazingly clear for the first time in AGES.
Also culturelle probiotic supplements I think help as well... hope this helps someone else.

kcraigmiles in ohio -Place vics vapor rub on affected areas twice a day for 2 weeks and it should clear up. The scales seem to moisten up and flake off. It's weird ,I know , but someone told me about this and after trying everything it did give relief.

Psoriasis
Pat in Mishawaka, IN -Had psoriasis breakout over total body. Heard about Kombucha Tea as a remedy for this. Got a "Mushroom" from a Korean neighbor and brewed it according to directions. Drank 3, 4oz glasses a day for 2 months. After the first 3 weeks I noticed all the scaling open raw sores starting to clear up,.... 6 weeks,just red spots, then 8 weeks it was totally gone. Stayed on this tea for several months only drinking a small glass in morning. When I see a breakout coming on I brew more tea.

Scalp Rinse
Kristy in Cisco, TX -For Psoriasis of the scalp I use a homemade rinse every time I was my hair... this, along with using a homemade moisturizing shampoo bar has completely cured the dryness on my scalp. It also worked on my baby's cradle cap.
In a 1-quart container, pour 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar and fill up the rest of the way with warm water. Pour over scalp and let it sit for about 30 seconds. Rinse with cold water.

Eczema, Psoriasis Cure
Hans in Los Angeles, CA -Psoriasis/Eczema is, like most diseases, an inflammatory disease. Its main trigger is Candida fungus in your digestive system.
Sugar feeds fungus and eating fungus (dairy, breads) adds to your internal flora (fungus). The result is your body over-reacting by (becoming inflamed) attacking fungus all over the body, including skin.
My "cure" is extremely effective: eat Turmeric (500mg pills) 3-6x a day. It is a powerful anti-inflammatory and balances your intestinal flora (fungus).
I have suffered for 33 years with this disease and tried it all. Turmeric is almost a "cure" and is probably more effective than corticosteriods.
Reduce sugars, dairy, gluten, fungus intake and take Turmeric. Keep areas mostened, try not to itch or break skin. Eczema is triggered by several elements, injury to skin is one of them.
Green tea and Salmon oil (omega 3's) should be taken also.
Salmon oil, green tea (especially around the eyes with warm moist bags) and turmeric can be applied directly for more relief. Avoid dangerous prescription drugs.
Good luck.

Permanent Psoriasis cure
www.drnatura.com in East Coast -I've tried everything, nothing worked. My thighs and knees were completely covered with plagues. My ears, elbows and ankles were bad too!
I did a 60 day colon cleanse and changed my body soap to Ivory Soap.
My psoriasis cleared 80% by the second week of the colon cleanse and 100% by the end of the 60 days.
