Psoriasis

I never had any psoriasis problems until getting sick about 4 years ago..going on the diet never did help. I use ointments to control it, but I cant get rid of it..on my back or my head. A lady who used to cut my hair said that she remembers a lot of people who she cut hair for that had Celiac also had psoriasis.

Does anyone else have it? Or have any suggestions?

Thanks.

I have it too. I have had it on my knees and elbows since I was 2 (I'm 33 now).

There have been times it has been a little better and times it has been pretty bad (a total body break out after getting strep throat - stay away from strep it can cause a breakout!). The only thing that works for me is diplorene (prescription). I've only been on the diet a month but it does seem better now. I was hoping being gluten-free would clear it up but it sounds like yours did not. I wish I had a better answer for you, maybe try the diplorene, it helps a lot!

I have psoriasis too. It started in my scalp and now it's all over. It went away when I only ate fish, rice, some vegetables and some fruits for a whole year. It came back when I broadened my diet, even though I still avoided wheat/gluten, dairy, eggs and soy. Dairy seems to make it way worse. Getting a sunburn (mild) makes it flare-up, then disappear from my arms and legs. I have good luck with Dovonex cream (special vitamin D). I'm almost back into sleeveless tops after having a bad breakout.

I have NEVER had good results from topical creams (other than the prescription Dovonex) or any other product that claims to help.

There is research that links psoriasis to the presence of strep bacteria. Mine first appeared when I had chronic tonsillitis and strep throat infections for about a year. Stephanie is right!

Hi Lisa

JenVan has it. My dad was covered 80% of his body at one time & hospitalized for 39 days .... he's gone to eternal rest now but shortly after his passiing I suspect he was celiac. It is another autoimmune disease... After he got out of the hospital I started him on vitamin & mineral therapy. He did wonderful until he got tired of taking supplements a couple times a day. Plus I had him stop drinking alcohol & coffee. When he got bad again he wanted to start back on the supplements but he had so much going on by then it was just to late.Olive oil works fairly good to clean up the flaking.....

best to you

      From their website I see "organic barley leaf powder" as an ingredient. Keep in mind that the gluten is in the kernel, and not in the leaves. https://drinkag1.com/about-ag1/ingredients/ctr

      Before the rise of social media we were well known by a lot of doctors and were recommended by many, especially our Safe & Forbidden Lists, but as doctors get younger and younger this is probably not happening as much as before.

      Thanks Scott I will definitely check my vitamins and minerals to see what I am missing so then I can supplement. I was very concern about my Meniers syntoms and i tryed to find some alive. Now im just realizing that my celiac is provably the root cause of my Meniers none of the 12 doctors I saw told me anything about this.  This web site is so helpful, thanks to people like you we can get answers.

      Vitamin D deficiency can contribute to rib pain. Chest pain stemming from the ribs ccould be costochondritis, which involves inflammation of the cartilage connecting the ribs to the breastbone. This pain can range from mild to severe, potentially mimicking heart attack symptoms, and is often worsened by breathing or movement. Other potential causes include muscle strain, rib fractures, or even referred pain from other conditions.  It will also help to chose vegetables low in omega 6.
