Guest guest Posted January 3, 2003 Report Share Posted January 3, 2003 Hello! I am new to this list. I have however suffered from psoriasis for at least 15 years. Last summer psoriasis covered my arms, hands, legs and scalp as well as spots in the face. After turning to the O-diet last autumn my skin has now dramatically recovered! Only minor, red and white " scars " remains at my elbows and hands. In addition to the general O-type diet I drank a cup of slippery elm tea each evening as recomended by Mr Pagano. I also tried to exclude the " nightshades " (tomatoes, etc)and coffee. Earlier i have tried the full " Pagano-diet " , with no red meat, but with no significant results. It would be interesting to hear if other type O with psoriasis have similar experiences! > Stick to animal protein and HB greens only.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2003 Report Share Posted January 9, 2003 The joy of any skin (largest organ) outbreak is NO fun. My face was very distorted from such an outbreak (source unknown). And diagnosed as " atopic dermatitis " . Who cares if it was eczema/psoriasis/whatever. The body followed. Anyway, I was on steroids (creams/shots/onintments) for 6 years until the Medical Dr. told me, " either you live with this chronic condition or die of a early heart attack from the steriods " . To this day, since reading and following Dr. Dadamo in April 1999, I had not needed to see my Dermatologist for any reason since Feb 1999. Best wishes, Gaye > Anyone have the joy of psoriasis?

Guest guest Posted March 29, 2004 Report Share Posted March 29, 2004 Colostrum is an immune modulator. If it is low, it brings it up. If it is high it brings it down. It also is a major body rebuilder of all tissues. Also, I have read that psoariasis is an essential fatty acid deficiency and supplementing with oils helps. I have heard many testimonies on this. Soy oil is one, but I think that fish oils and/or flax and evening primrose and olive would be good also. Perhaps better.

Hi Donna, Maybe so, but missing from the colostrum remedy is the fact the ability of the immune response to gear up or gear down also relies on cell receptor sites being properly formed. The communication hormones must have viable sites to adhere to on the white cells in order that they can properly sniff out pathogens or recognise self (or cancer) as such. 86 diseases, and all immune system dysfunctions, have been linked to receptor site malformation, and of course a resulting lack of control of cellular response does nobody any good. What I'm saying is that increasing the messaging that colostrum provides to white blood cells doesn't necessarily improve either response OR accuracy of that response, and if that's what you see, then you'll add glyconutrient supplements or foods to your regime. The supplements are made primarily from aloe vera, and of course we know that's all good. Also, a strong antioxidant and detoxification regime is important because toxin load is likely to be the culprit behind the malformation of cell receptors in the first place. Liver flushes and dietary restriction from foods containing toxins can also be valuable. Psoriasis is accompanied, according to medical research you can get online on Medline using appropriate search keywords, with depleted antioxidant/detoxifier glutathione particularly. Cold-processed whey with selenium is an exemplary glutathione builder, and glyconutrients also produce glutathione increase if the precursors are present. Conversely, colostrum does not contain glutathione precursors. regards, Duncan Crow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 31, 2004 Report Share Posted March 31, 2004 , Beta glucan will help her immune system to function appropriately. Beta glucan was one of the foundations of my recovery from stage IV cancer. It is the most effective immune modulator that has ever been discovered. It produces the maximum Appropriate immune response from your immune system - going aggressively after non-self (cancer cells, bacteria, viruses etc.) but very accurately recognizing " self " so it avoids autoimmune conditions and is very therapeutic for challenges such as diabetes, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis etc. I offer Transfer Point Beta glucan at my site. www.aboutbetaglucan.com You may refer to the over 1,800 MEDLINE references (now PubMed) at: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query - search for Beta glucan.

Guest guest Posted September 7, 2004 Report Share Posted September 7, 2004 do any of you know of any natural treatments for psoriatic arthitis? i have the skin flaking on the face and painful joints, but scared to take drugs like enbrel since it will shut off the immune system and i already have infections, any help would be appreciated, thanks radha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 8, 2004 Report Share Posted September 8, 2004 I don't have psoriatic arthritis but I do have a poor immune system. This is helping me, I don't know if it will work for you. But I will pass on the info and let you decide. If you want to try it the local health food store should have it or its almost half price on e-bay. (I tried it before and it did not help a ton like it is now. Maybe its because I was a lot worse, or maybe its because I am also doing vitamin C with bioflavonoids or a pinch of q-10.) http://www.optimalhealthnetwork.com/tek9.asp?pg=kb <http://www.optimalhealthnetwork.com/tek9.asp?pg=kb & article=53> & article=53 Glutathione is extremely important for the proper functioning of the immune system through its critical role in the growth and replication of lymphocytes, the cells that mediate specific immunity.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Hi Michele, I'm not sure if anyone has answered your question pertaining to psoriasis and folic acid yet, but I'd like to throw in my two cents. Folic acid/folate is repsonsible for DNA synthesis and growht of rapidly dividing cells. Therefore, this can irritate or exacerbate symptoms of psoriasis. GBP need to be on a multivitamin supplement, especially if the women are premenopausal. I recommend you encourage these patients to continue or restart their MVI's, but also talk to their PCP's about starting them on Methotrexate. Methotrexate is a folic acid derivative and antagonist. Therefore, it counteracts and competes with folic acid in cells. Blocking DNA synthesis stops the division of cells. With that said, if these patients are women trying to have children, they should not take methotrexate, and must put up with symptoms of psoriasis. Moreover, the recommendation is for men wishing to become fathers to discontinue use of this medication too. Hope that helps Kate Alie, M.S., R.D., L.D.

Guest guest Posted October 18, 2004 Report Share Posted October 18, 2004 Chlorine destroys electrolytes in the body, so I'd suggest organic carrot - celery juice (16oz at least a day) or a powder in health food stores called Just barley. At least 3 tablespoon a day. ABO Specifics Inc. - http://www.foodforyourblood.com Psoriasis OK! Who knows anything about this and how to get rid of it?

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 , Last year you also gave a combination of 3 things to put in a bath to soak when you've been in clorinated water. Seems like one of them was potassium in powdered form. Would that help the psoriasis? Psoriasis > > > OK! Who knows anything about this and how to get rid of it?

Guest guest Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Psoriasis & type Os should immediately eliminate ALL grains, dairy, & sugars. Increase fish oil intake. Organic green veggies for every single meal along with HB animal protein and HB fats. Every meal. Also, exercise daily. Give your body what it needs and let your immune system correct itself. ABO Specifics Inc. - http://www.foodforyourblood.com psoriasis Hi Leanne, My husband has psoriasis. He has it on his scalp, and on his hands. He has it so bad he is getting the arthritis that goes with it. For him, it appears to be hereditary, as his sisters and their children have it too, even though they live in Ireland, in a completely different climate, have a totally different diet and lifestyle. He has finally tried the blood type diet for the last 6 months, so far, it has not improved his psoriasis (but he has lost 13 pounds, gained lots of lean muscle, and his blood pressure went down from 145/80 to 128/68). There was a book that was recommended on this list 6-12 months ago, and I ordered a used copy from amazon.com. It is called How I Overcame Psoriasis, by Kent Trussell. I can't get my husband to read it. It took me 5 years to get him to try the BTD, who knows how long it will be before he looks at this book. I'll end up reading it and trying to get him to follow it. The back cover says " Control of psoriasis can be achieved by treating the skin's surface, examining dietary and metabolic individuality and by adopting a determined attitude. In How I Overcame Psoriasis, Kent Trussell presents thoroughly researched and self-tested treatments and information...This includes surface healing, diet and internal factors, the roles of the mind and our relationship with intrinsic energies. " I have skimmed the book. This man started showing symptoms of psoriasis at age 10. He wrote the book at age 49. He has not eradicated the condition from his body, but is able to manage the symptoms so they do not get worse or interfere with his life. I think when I ordered this book, I discovered it was out of print. The only option was a used copy, but they had a few copies available, in excellent condition. The copy I received is " like new " . Good luck. This can be such a disheartening condition.... Donna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Yes - that is another way to get minerals in. 1 tablespoon of potassium powder, 2 cups sea salt, 2 cups Epsom salt.

Guest guest Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 Hi, Psoriasis is not a skin disease, in alternate health care it is called Leaky Gut Syndrome. The gut the intestines are not functioning properly due to poisons, and these eventually reach the skin, and create the issue there. Your friend will need to do a complete work up on health, with an alternate health care practitioner. They will need herbs to stimulate the digestion, a special diet program according to their imbalances, and cleansing programs later down the road. Topical ointments will not help at all. This is a digestive disorder. Many Blessings, Rev. Whitneay T. Vanwells Alternate Health Care Professional FusionMasters TM Ltd.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 This may all be true in some circumstances, but it can also be as simple as an essential fatty acid deficit, in which case taking in some healthy oils will make it go away in less than a week. I have seen this. One man used cold processed soy oil, taking two table spoons a day. He went from severe bleeding psoriasis in scalp and elbows to no psoriasis at all in one weeks time. He had been to stanford hospital and they had tried everything they knew on him and nothing worked. Then he met some little old lady on the street who noticed his condition and told him to try soy oil and he did and he was glad. Others have found this worked also. So it is worth a try before spending alot of money with testing and supplements, etc. Donna Crow Certified Lymphologist http://www.excellentthhings.com Whitneay T.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2004 Report Share Posted December 12, 2004 Thanks for that post Helen! Although too late for my son who died in 1972, I know more than at that time His doctor thought that it was heriditary, remembering nothing in my family and nothing in Fred's family we were at a loss .. He suffered so much, only wanted to go out at night, once when I told him that we were going out in the boat to fish,he declined, I insisted, the folks down at the Marina stared and got me angry. I told a couple who were making disgusting faces at the sight ' that it is not infectious, he has a disability, we all have them to one extent or another so look at yourselves', and my son and I got into the boat and went fishing Lots of incidents like this one, eventually he got over that fear and had long sleeved shirts to hide it. He used dreadful creams that stunk of tar, took special baths, to no avail.As we lived on the L I> Sound ,he found out salt water helped, no cure but less irritation, (incidentally salt water in the sea helps poison ivy rashes) Now I realize my father must have had it. His hands got such terrible cracks on them, which prevented him from swimming or any water sports etc. Now I see one form of psoriasis can evidence itself in this form.
