Evening Primrose

Evening Primrose
I have a book called Perscription for Nutritional Healing. I talked to Brittney Hanna about this post. Liver Disease Recipes and Discussions
More than half of people with psoriasis say they’ve used complementary and alternative medicine to help manage their disease. Vitamins and supplements are often a staple complementary therapy. Of course, you should talk with your dermatologist before you take any vitamin or supplement for your psoriasis. They can tell you if it’s safe, effective, and won’t interfere with any of your other medications.
The following are some vitamins and supplements that may be beneficial  for moderate to severe psoriasis, based on recent research. (Susan Bernstein)
My book has two pages about this disease so it's a deeper dive. I will only share a few of the suggestions from the book.
  1. Flaxseed oil
  2. Evening Primrose
  3. Vitamin D3
  4. Selenium
  5. Silymarin (Milk Thistle extract) increases bile flow and protects the liver. IMPORTANT.
  6. Use cold-pressed sunflower oil, mustard seed oil, or Evening Primrose as a topical or supplement. I love the topical method for quick relief but as a supplement, any of these can support your immune system.
If you have psoriasis, certain dietary factors may exacerbate symptoms or trigger flare-ups. While individual responses can vary, some common triggers to avoid or minimize include:
  • Alcohol: Excessive alcohol consumption can worsen psoriasis symptoms.
  • Processed foods
  • Red meat and dairy
  • Gluten
  • Nightshade vegetables
  • Citrus fruits
  • Spicy foods
  • Excessive caffeine
In my learning, we suggest eliminating all the foods and beverages that may cause skin breakouts or digestive discomfort. After two weeks you can begin adding any of those listed back into your diet. If you have a reaction ( it may be one day or several to notice), that's the one you want to eliminate forever. Don't worry. I used to love eating anything Dairy Queen. Now my body tells me how much it hated me for doing that. A good point about gluten and red meat is that I don't eat red meat and generally avoid highly refined flour. The event I was at yesterday rewarded our attendance with a "keto friendly" meal afterwards. Hamburger on buns with the condements and toppings. They had brownies and watermelon slices. Today I feel and look bloated and my stomach is still digesting that.
This post is in part from the book, my personal words and AI. I'm human but not a mad scientist.
