I just stumbled upon an article online promoting these supposedly "miracle" herbal, all-natural remedies for psoriasis—except, through some bizarre twist of fate, they’re packed with illegal levels of corticosteroids 🙄 ...
Shouldn't we be more careful about this kind of thing?

Psoriasis
Psoriasis is a fairly common skin condition that often runs in families. It shows up as a rash characterized by raised, thick pink patches covered in silvery scales.

You’ll most often see this on elbows, knees, and the scalp, though it can pop up in skin folds too. While the disease actually kicks off due to an immune system malfunction, there is definitely a genetic component involved. Physical or mental stress, along with skin injuries like scratches, can also trigger a flare-up.

There are plenty of medications available to help manage the inflammation associated with psoriasis. That said, maintaining a solid diet and using bioactive supplements can be great ways to complement your medical treatment.

A well-planned diet can help lower the chances of developing psoriasis. Start with the basics: a balanced mix of macronutrients. First and foremost, make sure you're getting enough high-quality protein. Your body also needs a steady supply of essential fatty acids. Try adding flaxseed oil and fish oil to your daily routine at a 1:4 ratio.

A basic bio-correction program for psoriasis using dietary supplements (DS).

Phase one—cleansing the gut and stabilizing a disrupted metabolism and immune system.
- Herbal weight management essence, cordyceps, anti-lipid tea, Lian-Jan capsules, and Digest.

Phase two—restoring trace element and vitamin exchange and nourishing the skin cells.
- Biocalcium, Vaughan, and Biogen.

Phase three—maintaining healthy nerve tissue metabolism, boosting mental clarity, improving nerve impulse transmission, and protecting the body against stress through calming effects. Eel oil and Ikan.

And he actually DOES cure all of these things!!!

p.s. Sorry, doctors, but clearly someone out there knows more than you do! 🙂

Yeah, right... and what exactly is this guy using to "cure" psoriasis, vitiligo, or those "brown spots"?🤣 I'm dying to know. 😁

So, how did he "cure" you? 😁 And what was it that he supposedly fixed in the first place?

P.S. Isn't posting ads against the rules? (Or maybe you're just getting a kickback? 😁)

Look, everyone knows there’s no magic bullet for psoriasis, especially when it gets nasty. You try a quick fix, and the whole thing just flares up even worse than before.
I don't mean to disrespect anyone, but let's be real—it's a long shot expecting some random guy out in the sticks to stumble onto a cure before a whole squad of highly trained specialists who live and breathe dermatology...
Technically, anything is possible, I guess, but I'm sticking with mainstream medicine for now, even if the results feel pretty underwhelming.
It’s also common knowledge that researchers here in the States have run massive studies on diet and psoriasis, and they couldn't prove that any specific diet or meal plan actually changes how the disease moves.
The standard advice is just to dodge heavy, super spicy foods so you don't trigger more itching, cut back on the caffeine, and maybe toss some omega-3s into your routine every now and then.

Has anyone else stumbled upon that new "Take It or Leave It" quiz?

I mean, is anyone actually forcing anyone else to do anything here?

It’s really just about whether an individual decides to explore options outside of what your standard dermatologist suggests. That's all it is.

Personally, I feel like my dermatologists have done significantly less for me than other methods I've tried... and look, that was entirely my choice. It doesn't mean things like prescription creams, Oil City products, omega-3s, or even just some sunshine and time at the beach won't work wonders for someone else.

...and honestly, nothing gets under my skin quite like when people acting like they represent FIFA start posting those bitter, condescending comments, mocking everything and whining about commissions...
If you think about it for more than a second... why would I even bother offering my grand donations if nobody is going to deposit them into my checking account anyway?

🙂 🙂

Starting a new thread because I’m pretty sure I’ve officially caught psoriasis.
I haven’t even heard much about this thing before, but I guess it finally found me.
So, looking for recommendations—doctors, dermatologists, anyone who knows their stuff.
Right now I’m hanging out in Seattle, so if you know someone in the Pacific Northwest area, please let me know.
And honestly? My lifestyle isn't exactly helping. I eat junk, I drink, I smoke, and I am incredibly stressed out because my college entrance exams are in just a few days...🙄 ..yeah.
No one in my family has ever dealt with psoriasis, and my skin was always perfect. Like, seriously, it was flawless. Now? It’s gone.😢 I really don't want to live with this on my body, so please, throw every option you have at me. I’ve already read the basics online, but if anyone has actual lived experience...
It’s weird, though. This all started about two months ago when I spent some time in Washington, D.C. I noticed this tiny little spot back then, and now, two months after coming back to Washington, D.C., it’s just exploded. Is there actually a connection there? Maybe? I don't know.😕

I low-key wish those little fish could just eat it right off my skin.🙂

Hmm... if you're already noticing a distinct little spot like that, I'm not entirely convinced it's actually psoriasis...
I’d strongly suggest heading over to your primary care physician right away—they'll likely end up referring you to a specialist after they take a look.

Gregory Turner71 said:Hmm... if you’re already spotting those little dots, I mean, it might not even be psoriasis...
I’d say just head straight to your GP. They’ll probably just send you off to a specialist anyway.

But what if I'm nowhere near my doctor right now? And I won't be back until the 22nd, which feels way too late to just sit around and wait...😢

amberjackal14 said:And since I'm away from my primary care physician right now—won't be back until the 22nd—it feels like waiting that long might be a bit too late..😢

Hmm... I'm not entirely sure. Could you maybe go into a bit more detail about where this showed up, what area it's covering, what it actually looks like, and whether it's bothering you at all—like if there's any pain or itching?

So, here’s the deal. It started out as this little dot on the top of my palm... just a tiny thing. It was dry, itchy as hell, and I kept scratching at it, which I probably shouldn't have done, I guess. Now, the whole thing has spread into this big pinkish patch covered in red spots. And now? Now it's popping up on my elbows too, and I'm seeing these little bumps starting to flare up on my other hand
I'm pretty sure it's psoriasis
Basically, it's hitting my palms the hardest 😢

Did you hit up the dermatologist yet? What's the verdict?

Nah, I haven't 😢
It's calmed down a little bit, I guess, but I'm still heading in next week once I get back home. 😢

Look, we've seen this play out plenty of times—usually, within just a few months, the whole problem just disappears.

I know this lady—who actually managed to kick her psoriasis to the curb—and she’s living out in Washington, D.C.:

A friend of mine went for Phoenix fish psoriasis treatment back in March 2005—it was run by Novak and located near Holy Mary in the Grand Canyon area.
He stayed for three weeks. He completely drained his bank account... and got absolutely nothing out of it.

He tells me that he actually has more patches of skin affected now than he did before he ever started the treatment.
I don't blame anyone else, though; he signed the contract himself, which explicitly stated there was a possibility the condition wouldn't improve.

So, I have a couple of questions:
1/ Does anyone here know someone who underwent this specific treatment and actually saw results???

2/ Does anyone know of anyone who received therapy over in Oil City near Ivanic?

Thanks!

A friend of mine went for Phoenix fish psoriasis treatment back in March 2005—it was held at the Novak Djokovic center near Santa Maria in Karst.
He stayed for three weeks. He emptied his wallet... and got absolutely nothing out of it.

He says he actually has more skin patches now than he did before he ever went for treatment.
He isn't blaming anyone, though; he signed the contract himself, which explicitly stated there was a possibility the condition wouldn't improve.

So, I have a couple of questions:
1/ Does anyone know someone who actually went to this specific facility for psoriasis and found the therapy helpful???

2/ Does anyone know anyone who received treatment at the Naphtalan facility near Ivanic?

Thanks!

I’ve personally known people who sought treatment at Naphtalan facilities, and while some saw their symptoms settle completely, most just experienced a temporary reprieve—a softening of the blow before the inevitable recurrence sets in. The uncomfortable truth is that Naphtalan remains the only statistically proven option for managing psoriasis, yet our broken healthcare system refuses to cover the costs; you can really only get a referral if you’re battling rheumatoid arthritis instead. For those living in the Greater New York area, the logistics aren't much of a hurdle since they can commute daily and just pay for the therapy, whereas everyone else is stuck footing the bill for both treatment and lodging. As for those high-priced gurus over in Istria peddling that Phoenix fish psoriasis treatment, if you ask me, they’re nothing more than opportunists looking to turn human suffering into a massive payday.

My sister is heading out to visit Ivanic—well, let's just say she's traveling to a place similar to a quiet suburb outside of Chicago. After she gets back, things seem to stabilize for a little while, everything looks fine—but then, inevitably, it’s right back to square one. 😢
