Trying to clear through diet

[Holistic1]

Hi there. Im new to this forum and am hoping to get some good information on how to handle psoriasis. Ive had it for about 7 years now, It started off around my nose and on my elbow then to other parts of my body, places Id rather not have it if you know what I mean. I dont have it that bad, the other places I have it are on my scalp by my hairline and 2 patches on my legs and a little patch behind my ear, on my eyebrow and little patches on my chin which i cover up with stubble.

What I am wondering is have any people on here had any luck with clearing through diet? I have started the Dr Pagano diet just over 3 weeks ago but havent seen any changes, if anything it has got a tiny bit worse but im wondering if that is down to the cold weather as my place doesnt have that much heating.

I lead a very healthy lifestyle. I dont drink alcohol or smoke. My diet for the past 3 weeks has consisted of a green smoothie every morning which I put in..kale..1 avocado..1 apple..1 banana..pumpkin seeds..sunflower seeds..almonds and manuka honey. Then for lunch I have sardines with brown rice and hummous and for tea I have either chicken or lamb with brown rice.. sweet potato and hummous.
Throughout the day I also try and drink 2 litres of water but dont always achieve it.

Anyways, Im struggling today and really craving a fry up lol. My mouth is watering at the thought of it Can anyone give me any hope that this diet thing actually works and for me to keep going?

Thank you for reading.

Sorry I'm not one for diets, I enjoy all the bad things to much

Have you had a read through the Natural Section here: Natural Treatments For Psoriasis it does have some good information and you're welcome to start your own thread.

I must admit in a mad moment of frustration I did buy Pagano's book, but after reading a few passages from each page decided it's only good for propping the door open on a sunny day. Not the authors fault, I just couldn't be bothered to give his ideas a try.

Caroline has a thing about treating from the inside, and I'm sure she will tell you more. But for the moment you may be interested in her thread here: Dimethylfumarates and Psoriasis

P.S Yes the cold doesn't help see here: Winter tips for Psoriasis

Burp! Oops sorry that was my Full English I had this morning.

I did actually, but managed to wash it down with a nice strong Espresso.

Holistic,

Welcome to the forum.

There is some guy named Charles who got rid of his psoriasis by means of a diet.
He has a website called howtobeatpsoriasis dot com

I warn you, his diet is extreme !!!

Fred refers to my inside treatment. That is a different approach which can be combined with a limited diet.

Hi Caroline. Thank you for the welcome and link to the program.
I had a look at Charles program and for sure it is very strict. Im following the same sort of diet at the moment just with not as meny vegetables in the smoothie, that looks as if it would be very hard to stick to and quite expensive aswell.
Im not sure about the bit where he mentions no brown rice. To only eat oatmeal for carbs sounds abit unhealthy to me. I will look more into your diet I think
