Psoriasis disappeared after 16 years!!

[jiml]

Hi all

So basically I've had psoriasis since I was 14 (30 now), at one point it had taken over my legs, back, stomach and scalp. Been using the creams, gels, ointments and solutions provided by my gp which did help but never got rid of it. So I've never been free of psoriasis since I've had it and I've even had uv treatment and methotrexate at one point but still no luck so I basically decided to stop using everything except the dovobet gel for my scalp and just came to terms with the fact that I will never get rid of it. Anyway I decided to join a gym to loose a little weight and get in shape somewhat, there was no change in my diet  when I started and continued like this for the first 3  months still looking the same but my psoriasis did improve slightly. Then I went on a low carb diet for 8 weeks which was definitely the game changer, I lost and stone and more importantly 90% of the psoriasis had disappeared and whatever remained I used to steriod based treatment and for the first time in 16 years I was free of psoriasis. I never heard or read that diet could help psoriasis until after I had noticed changes on my body, guys I cannot stress this enough, it actually works. Plz plz plz try it, for your own benefit. It wasn't a easy 8 weeks but it was definitely worth it.

So my diet and gym plan

Mon and Tuesday gym
Wednesday rest
Thursday and Friday gym
Saturday and Sunday rest

1 hour intense sessions of cardio and weights

My diet was simple and easy

8am Breakfast boiled eggs or oats or porridge with low fat milk and a protein shake

11am apple

1pm lunch chicken or beef or fish with a green salad

3 pm pear

6pm dinner chicken or beef or fish with vegetables

And plenty of water throughout the day

Saturday I had 1 cheat meal ?

All foods cooked healthy, touch of olive oil only if I had to. No bread, fizzy drinks or juices, and no junk food at all.

Please try it and I hope it helps you the way it helped me

Hi SA and    to the club as you may have seen there are several people here that tell us of their success with diet and exercise
i admire anyone that can stick to a diet ...unfortunately I'm not one of them, I have tried all sorts of remedies in my long life with the disease and until a few years ago was not able to find anything that worked for long periods.
But I do hope your diet and exercise plan continues to work and I will be delighted to read of your continuing success
We are a very friendly group of sufferers and we are always ready to listen to anything that works
