Re: LDN & psoriasis

Yes, I know it's listed. what I wanted was to contact someone who has tried it and learn from their experience. Thanks, Andy Landau <CLANDAU@...> wrote: Andy, have you checked out the LDN website? Psoriasis is listed as one of the diseases that Dr. Bihari has treated with LDN. The address is www.ldninfo.org.

Rick,

couple other things to try:

Dr Semon in Milwaukee WI thinks most psoriasis is from

fungal infections. He uses nystatin and a strict diet to treat it,

but you may get as good results from herbal enzyme products,

in particular, Candex, which work the same way as nystatin.

(email me if you want more details on anti-fungals)

My father in law suffers from psoriasis in the feet and near

the ankles. After trying many meds, he went to a dermatologist

in India, and he suggested two things: get off most meds,

and get a great quality extra virgin coconut oil

(I think my SIL gets a huge tub of it from the philippines) and apply that

liberally over the area 2-3

times a day. He was also asked to apply the oil and sit

in sunlight for a few minutes, but best to check with your

doc on sun exposure part.

The good news is that my father-in-law is now

feeling a lot better after 6 months of the coconut oil.

I am not qualified to say something on the LDN part, hopefully

others will, since I have been on LDN for only 5 weeks.
