Dear Heather, My Mother had one of the worst cases of psoriasis on record. She would have lesions covering a large fraction of her entire body at any given time. She was always miserable with the itching and flaking and embarassed to go anywhere. She was mentally unbalanced in a number of ways. The psoriasis contributed a lot to her problems.
All the conventional treatments did nothing that lasted. The most we ever found to do for her was baby oil to keep the leasions from getting too crusty. It helped with the itching a little bit. <sigh> We had one member some years back who tried CS for his psoriasis. He reported some initial improvement but we never heard back from him after the first couple of weeks, if I remember correctly, so we don't know if there was any long term results. If it had continued to improve I expect we'd have heard from him. If I were addressing psoriasis today, CS would certainly be one thing to try, but I suspect that you'd want to look into a lot of other things as well. In addition to oral intake, it would probably be worth experimenting with CS on gause pads, kept moist for lengthy periods of time, possibly with DMSO added, on the off chance there's a pathogen associated with the disease that can be gotten at through the skin. My gut tells me that it's a systemic thing that's more likely to respond to systemic measures, such as Gerson Therapy or other modalities that focus on nutrition, environmental toxicity, and cleansing the body of toxins. References to Gerson Therapy mention psoriasis as one of the many conditions that have responded. Google search on 'psoriasis max gerson'. There are references to vitamin C, lecithin, dietary oils, various other vitamins and minerals in relation to psoriatic skin conditions, so it might be addressable as a deficiency disease, with supplementation, juicing, and a fresh, raw, organic diet. A couple of pages on the doctoryourself.com website talk about this. Another area to look into will be immune reactivity to mercury or other toxic heavy metals found in industry, food, household products, and dental materials, among other sources. Consider having mercury fillings and other inappropriate materials properly removed and replaced at a properly equipped and experienced clinic. Learn about dental revision from Dr. Hal Huggins, at drhuggins.com. I'm sure there are tons of other things to consider. I often wonder if I could have helped my mom if I knew then some of what I know now. Let us know if you learn anything more. I would love to hear a report on anything your husband's coworker tries.
