Oral fumaric acid esters for psoriasis an effects and safety study

[Caroline]

It's a new study on an old theory. From what I understand the study means that psoriasis occurred due to a deficiency in fumaric acid levels leading to defects in the citric acid cycle. We're back to our bodies PH. acid or alkaline...6.0 or 7.1 PH...somewhere in that area. Kinda like soil. At least that's part of the history of this theory.

Here's the botanist theory....not much grows in alkaline soils.... Most plants grow in Acid soils or neutral soils. Not too acidly or too alkaline. So add amendments to the soil to achieve solid growing Conditions for the plants to produce the results required. 6.0-7.0 PH. ( medications in some cases with  P. )

Why can't we achieve the same thing by drinking virgin margaritas for Acid balance and green slurpies for alkaline balance. Fruits, nuts veggies..ahhhh ??? There are test strips OTC which can identify the Results.

Thanks for the update .

Basically you are right Quest. It seems some kind of deficiency.

But.... it is NO theory. It comes from a very practical approach and is already 50 years old and working. So no theory, pure practical magic.
The fact is that DMF appears to have more effect on our cells than we up to now knew. I have seen an interview with two dermatologists, in dutch so incomprehensible for you , where it appears that not only psoriasis can be targeted, but also MS, Lichen Sclerosis, Crohns, that it even appears to be good for people who have heart problems that it works against bed-sore wounds of elderly people, the practical field in which it can be used seems to widen and widen.
