Guest guest Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 i've read through all of the posts dealing with psoriasis and i would greatly appreciate some sage advice because my psoriasis is getting worse, not better. 1. all of the general health protocols that i have read mention getting sun every day. i'm in reno and it's getting cold, so rather than natural sun every day, could i go to the tanning bed for like 5 mins a day? there is a tanning salon by my house that has unlimited tanning for 20 bucks a month. 2. i have colloidal silver, sutherlandia opc as well as an assortment of vitamins, minerals and lots of different varieties of beneficial oils. i take CS separately, but should i take the OPC separately from all of the other supplements or is it okay at the same time? 3. i guess my question is, does anyone know of a good psoriasis specific protocol or is there anyone here who would be willing to help me set up a specific plan to beat this? there isn't one that i could find on TBYIL.com. i am serious about fixing this because it is affecting my personal life and intimate relationship. blessings, RAZOR. ps: thank you for opening my eyes. i came upon this group several months ago by accident and it is the best thing that has ever happened to me, health wise.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Razor,Have you tried making the oleander soup lotion? This should be very effective. Below is the link. The Recipe for Oleander Soup Part 1Whatever you do, do not go to a tanning salon. It is in no way the same as sun and actually harmful.Here are herbs that should help this condition:Burdock root and red clover cleanse the blood.Poultices made from chaparral, dandelion, and yellow dock.Add 2 teaspoons of ginger to your bath water.To reduce redness and swelling, lightly brush off scales with a loofah and apply alcohol free goldenseal extract.Lavender is good to use in a sauna or steam bath. It fights inflammation and soothes and heals irritated skin.Sarsparilla and yellow dock are good detoxifiers.Silymarin (milk thistle extract) increases bile flow and protects the liver, which is important in keeping the blood clean. Take 300 milligrams three times daily.Wild pansy.Eat a diet that is composed of 50% raw foods and includes plenty of fruits, grains, and vegetables. Include fish in your diet, as well.Get plenty of dietary fiber, Fiber is critical for maintaining a healthy colon. Also do a colon cleansing.Use fish oil, flaxseed oil, or primrose oil supplements. They contain ingredients that interfere with the production and storage of arachidonic acid, a natural substance that promotes the inflammatory response and makes the lesions of psoriasis turn red and swell. Avoid red meats and dairy products. They contain this arachidonic acid.Apply seawater to the affected area with cotton several times a day.Use cold pressed flaxseed, sesame, or soybean oils.Do not consume citrus fruits, fried foods, process foods, saturated fats, sugar, or white flour.Unfortuntely, there is no known cure for psoriasis. Hopefully, the above will give you relief and do away with flare ups.I really hope this helps Razor. Please keep us posted. And I am so glad you found this group, even if it was an accident. You are a valued member.Hugs,oleander soup , "nationalrazor9" <restrictionsapply wrote:>> i've read through all of the posts dealing with psoriasis and i would greatly appreciate > some sage advice because my psoriasis is getting worse, not better. > > 1. all of the general health protocols that i have read mention getting sun every day. i'm > in reno and it's getting cold, so rather than natural sun every day, could i go to the > tanning bed for like 5 mins a day? there is a tanning salon by my house that has unlimited > tanning for 20 bucks a month. > > 2. i have colloidal silver, sutherlandia opc as well as an assortment of vitamins, minerals > and lots of different varieties of beneficial oils. i take CS separately, but should i take the > OPC separately from all of the other supplements or is it okay at the same time?> > 3. i guess my question is, does anyone know of a good psoriasis specific protocol or is > there anyone here who would be willing to help me set up a specific plan to beat this? > there isn't one that i could find on TBYIL.com. i am serious about fixing this because it is > affecting my personal life and intimate relationship. > > blessings, > > RAZOR. > > ps: thank you for opening my eyes. i came upon this group several months ago by > accident and it is the best thing that has ever happened to me, health wise.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Hi Razor,Let me see if I can address your questions bit by bit.All the oils you mentioned are beneficial, expecially coconut oil and cod liver oil.Apple cider vinegar (Bragg's) in your bathwater is also good. And, as a matter of fact, I just read that taking apple cider vinegar (Bragg's), together with raw honey three times a day before meals is also very beneficial. Of course, if you should be diabetic, don't take the honey.Instead of epsom salts, use sea salt. And, actually Utopia Silver has a high grade quality sea salt that I use exclusively.And as for diet, I would do without pork and shellfish. I would limit my diet to poultry and fresh water fish.I sure hope I have helped Razor.Hugs,oleander soup , "nationalrazor9" <restrictionsapply wrote:>> wow, luella thank you! the info you provided is invaluable. > > i do have a few more questions, if you don't mind. > > 1. i currently have coconut oil, EP oil, fish oil, cod liver oil, olive and flaxseed oil. in grand > national razor fashion, i bought them all and i am taking them all. is this necessary? does > it help? > > 2. would ACV baths or epsom salt baths be good things to do? thus far i have been > alternating them every other day. i have found that they help with the itching. > > > 3. i understand that cow is out. can i still have poultry or pork? shellfish?> > > thanks a million, everyone. > > regards, > > NATIONAL RAZOR. > > > > > oleander soup , " May" luellamay129@ wrote:> >> > Razor,> > > > Have you tried making the oleander soup lotion?

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Pardon me for jumping in here. I have been doing all that for severe eczema. Skin was de-fatted due to pesticide.

Guest guest Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Something that you might want to try/experiment with and could probably get me kicked-off most natural medicine lists is Listerine. Certainly not something I would normally recommend. J You must use the regular Listerine (no generics) with no added flavoring. If the skin is broken it WILL burn, so it is best to apply to skin that is not broken. Apply several times daily with a cotton ball. No one is really sure why Listerine works to cure psoriasis and also eczema so well, but many claim to have eliminated flare-ups for long periods of time, and even forever. The main ingredient in Listerine is non-edible alcohol, which kills germs. It also contains menthol, thymol, and eucalyptus. Another ingredient is methyl salicylate, which is related to aspirin. It kills some of the germs and partially numbs the skin. So, obviously the ingredients are not pristene by any means and certainly not all-natural. While using the Listerine, get on a healthy diet that uses only good oils, plenty of pure, clean water, continue to flush the liver/gallbladder and digestive tract, parasite cleanse, REDUCE STRESS (very important as stress tends to be a pre-cursor to flare-ups) and eliminate any environmental toxins (chemical, toxic air, aerosol sprays, etc.) Use castille soap and all-natural skin-care products. Make sure that you shower/bathe in clean water (shower filter) – do not put any part of your body in chlorinated water. Sometimes the body needs a little bit of help and skin conditions can really affect the emotions also. I know one lady that had psoriasis most of her life and began using Listerine and it cleared completely up with six months and she has had no more problems going on two years now. One of my family members is using it right now for eczema that has been on one finger for almost 9 years and within a week we are seeing remarkable improvement.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Thank you so much! I think I had better check my eyesight as well! I seldom use anything directly on my skin as it is too painful. If I can break the itch scratch cycle, it may be a lot easier to heal. I'll work my way through that list. The only one I've used is the pine tar - & discovered I am now allergic to pine. Thanks again.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Thank you so much for that. The ingredients may not be pristine, but considering the toxic garbage that caused the problem, I shouldn't imagine it would do as much damage, nor as much damage as the standard steroids and antibiotics used to treat eczema. I turned down the P-UVA treatment as they were only going to stick my hands in the light box - as though they are detached from the rest of my body! Yet the rash is all over my limbs and midriff. Weird! Anyway, I called DH & he is going to pick some up on his way home. Can't fit shoes on yet to get to the store. The swelling does go down while I sleep. CS cleared the rash off my face and ears, but it persists elsewhere. I was contemplating borax next. I can hardly wait!

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Psoriasis is not primarily a skin problem. The skin symptoms are secondary. Look into getting a Comprehensive Digestive and Stool Analysis through a chiropractor or naturopath or a holistic MD. Look for dysbiosis and low gastric acidity. It's helpful to know specifically what undesireable microflora has colonized the gut.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Menthol, thymol, eucalyptus, and methyl salicylate are all essential oils extracted from herbs and are known for their germ killing abilities. Menthol is common in mints, thymol from thyme, eucalyptus is obvious, methyl salicylate is oil of wintergreen which also has some pain killing and anti-inflammatory ability. I used to buy a mouthwash in the health food store that cost over $5 a pint until I realized upon reading the ingredients that it was basicly Listerine and peroxide. I now make my own by mixing two parts peroxide and one part Listerine.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Hi and Razor I have read somewhere, i cant remember if it was in this group or somewhere else, that Mahonia aquifolium/ M-folia or oregon grape is excellent for psoriasis. My husband also has psoriase and I did a search a while ago on M-folia and remember that i found some shampoo's etc with M-folia in it. But i never took it further.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 Martie, Good memory. From http://www.ryandrum.com/Devilsclub.htm: "THERAPEUTIC USES OF MAHONIAMost Mahonia medicine uses teas and extracts of stem and rhizome pieces both externally and internally. Some folk traditions do use Mahonia leaf teas, powders, and extracts (1), I do not, yet. One of the best summaries of the real therapeutic uses of Mahonia is in Dr. Christopher's book, The School of Natural Healing (2). Dried leaf has reportedly been used as an antimicrobial styptic for skin abrasions and to topically calm herpes and psoriasis skin lesions (?). I usually recommend strong Mahonia nervosa decocted tea for herpes and psoriasis patients; the functional dosage is roughly one to two 8-oz cups of a 2 to 12 hr-steeped decoction two to four times a week. This usually results in a noticeable lessening of symptom severity. Less-defined eczema and rashes often resolve with 2-10 weeks of M. nervosa tea usage: the action here may be due to a combination of improved liver and kidney excretory function, antifungal or antibacterial activity, and, possibly mild thyroid stimulation (6)." - Steve oleander soup oleander soup On Behalf Of marmeyhWednesday, October 15, 2008 12:34 AMoleander soup Subject: Re: psoriasis revisited Hi and RazorI have read somewhere, i cant remember if it was in this group or somewhere else, that Mahonia aquifolium/ M-folia or oregon grape is excellent for psoriasis.

Guest guest Posted October 15, 2008 Report Share Posted October 15, 2008 I have had atopic dermatitis most of my life. It is not as bad as an adult. I find the best way to deal with it is to use an ointment type moistureizer (not lotion) like Palmer's cocoa butter in the tub and wear leggings to bed. It is hard to scratch through leggings. Avoid anything with perfumes or dyes. My mom always used Tide to wash clothes....but it was always my fault for scratching.... C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
