Can I ask how you use Paraffin for psoriasis, I've never heard of it being used by anyone before.
Regards.

Hi Fred,
I use liquid parafin to keep the skin moist and reduce flaking. I use it immediately after a shower when the skin is relatively soft and it soaks the moisture in. However, this is a greasy option, so it may cause staining on apparels. Having said that, I still prefer it as it gives me Moisturizer skin for almost 12hrs. Hope this is helpful.

Hi, we do have other uses for liquid paraffin , if you drink it you will never need worry about whether or not you get constipation .
As Jim say's try coconut oil it is very good.
