Psoriasis, a recurring autoimmune disorder, affects over 7.5 million Americans. Psoriasis is characterized by patches of skin that begin to appear pink or red with white scales, with some variations in different skin tones.

Although psoriasis appears on the skin, it stems from the immune system. T-cells, a type of white blood cell, become overactive to produce other immune markers that can cause an inflammatory reaction on the skin.

Although there is no cure, there are ways to help manage symptoms naturally.

Avoiding alcohol may help reduce flare ups as alcohol has been shown to be a trigger for psoriasis. Limiting red meat, saturated fats and refined sugars, may also help reduce flare-ups.

Including immune system supportive supplements such as turmeric, fish oil, vitamin D, and evening primrose oil have been reported to help ease mild symptoms of psoriasis, according to the National Psoriasis Foundation. Eating a diet high in cold water fish, seeds, nuts, and omega-3 fatty acids are known for their ability to reduce inflammation and therefore helpful for managing the condition.
