In this video, we’re going to talk about the three best remedies for psoriasis. If you have psoriasis, then you don’t want to miss out on this video—I put a lot of research and energy into this topic to summarize it for you.
The word Psoriasis comes from two Greek words: psora (itchy) and iasis (action/condition).
Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition—this is where your body creates antibodies that attack your own healthy tissue. With psoriasis, certain areas of your skin are replaced every 3-5 days instead of 28-30 days. This accelerated production of skin cells is what causes the redness, scaliness, and flakiness with psoriasis.
What’s really happening behind the curtain is a T-cell dysfunction—in particular, the TH17 cell. T-cells are part of the acquired immune system. This means you aren’t born with it, but instead, you acquire it over time.
This dysfunction of TH17 cells is typically triggered by an altered microbiome.
When these cells dysfunction, they induce a massive amount of inflammation and autoimmunity. Additionally, they release cytokines, which can also be inflammatory. At the same time, T-reg cells are suppressed.
TH17 is directly linked to vitamin D. This is why the first remedy for psoriasis is vitamin D. Take a look:
1. Vitamin D - Vitamin D helps regulate T-cells. Vitamin D acts as a hormone in the body. In particular, it acts like cortisol, which is one of the primary treatments for psoriasis. This is why psoriasis cases skyrocket in the winter—most people get less vitamin D.
2. Cod liver oil - Cod liver oil not only contains vitamin D and vitamin A, but it also has omega-3 fatty acids. Low levels of omega-3s are known to cause dry, scaly, and red skin. Omega-3 is a powerful anti-inflammatory.
3. Bile salts - Bile salts stimulate vitamin D receptors. This means that it allows vitamin D to work much better in the body.
It’s also a good idea to go on an intermittent fasting plan and avoid all gluten.
Give these tips a try and let me know how they work for you in the comments below.

I've had moderate to severe psoriasis for over twenty years. Not one doctor has ever recommended diet change, they have all prescribed ointment and injections that do not work and have given me incredibly awful side effects. In walks Dr. "Amazing" Eric Berg with his research and advice, I follow and cut gluten, and BOOM! Two weeks later I'm almost clear. I am ASTOUNDED! I can't thank this man enough for his dedication to educating us.

After 40 years of scratching myself to pieces mainly at night. Living on cortisone creams for 40 years. I came across your channel and decided I had nothing to lose by trying some of your suggestions.I started VitD 50 000 IU’s once a week along with a daily K2 and an omega 3. I realized only after several months that I was no longer scratching. Everyone who knows me is amazed as my elbow was a very visible area which was Always inflamed, bleeding and scabs. Now a faint white patch. I cannot believe that adding these vitamins to my body was all it took to change my life. Thank you for all your research and advice. I must add… I do believe that gluten is something that does not do well for me either.

I call him 'no-nonsense' doctor. All explanations are straight to the point, all backed with knowledge and logical conclusions. Thank you Dr Berg

I agree 100% with everything in this video. I have Psoriasis, I had already discovered simply by just by taking 2 fish oil capsules a day, and Vitamin D, reducing diary products and sugar I had a major improvement in my Psoriasis. For me, It is highly manageable without using prescription drugs.

I started Keto Dec 28 of last year. I am also doing intermittent fasting. I have had patches of psoriasis on my left elbow and both ankles for a couple of years now and today I just happened to realize all of the psoriasis is gone!!!

I live in Nigeria Africa and I want to say this is the first I am having a thorough explanation of what I have gone through all my life. Including the the stressors which I have experienced. Thanks so much really helpful

I really appreciated this video, thank you. I was covered in Psoriasis for over 30 years and battled tummy issues, psoriatic Arthritis, and extreme weight loss. My life was controlled by it...I easily spent over a million dollars on creams, ointments, treatments, supplements...you name it...I tried it. I even tried going Gluten Free which helped but not totally. I took a temp. job filling in for a Baker at a logging camp. Within the week, I was covered and raw and I mean raw. Turned out I'm allergic to wheat and got dermatitis from it...not Psoriasis. Ointments are different and often made me worst. I reacted to touching flour from baking bread. Now I'm 100% Wheat Free with everything from laundry soap to my makeup and my skin is so clear, subtle, soft, and beautiful for my age for 3 years straight. So happy! Once in a while, if I come into contact with traces of "Wheat" even from sheets in a hotel...I would know it within the hour. Yet, I can eat barley without breaking out in Dermatitis. I now encourage everyone I know with Psoriasis to try going wheat free. Worth a shot!

I have terrible psoriasis on my scalp, I'm going to go to the store tomorrow and start this remedy. I will let y'all know my progress in a month

I only have psoriasis on my scalp. Cutting gluten and dairy was the first step that majorly helped improve my plaques. Especially dairy. I also know that conventional coffee (organic is fine), sugar, alcohol, and food dyes make it worse too. I’ll put up with a little psoriasis because I like a little sugar occasionally and having a drink, but I really try to cut back when it’s getting aggravated. Also I will say I was getting vitamin B6 shots for energy and wow! My scalp cleared up soooo well for a while.

My mom did this!! It's worked in 90 days or less. Now we are recommending to anyone we hear is affected by psoriasis thank you Dr. Berg!!

This channel literally discussing every single disease I have I love you Dr Berg
-
I’ve been doing all this for a while (having followed your advice for other reasons) and my psoriasis has cleared up. Can highly recommend for others x

Dr Berg I followed your directions on not only doing healthy ketogenic diet, 40,000 unit D3+k2, 2 tudca upon waking, cod liver oil. After 11 mos lost 52 lbs, trimmed waistline 5 “, finally saw some improvement on my psoriasis. I still have a faint of dryness, but no longer red and itchy inflamed! As you said it would take 2-3 yrs to heal. At 70 now after decades of suffering with it I see a great improvement….step by step!
-
Very good information, thank you. I sent this to a friend of mine who suffers from the condition
-
I quit eating processed meats, and this made a big difference for me.!
-
I had good results when I started taking vitamin D and fish oil. But, when I started eating mostly salad, meat and veggies, the symptoms almost completely subsided! I never tried bile salts. I will have to try that next. Thank you for making your videos. I wish more doctors would explain things the way you do. They seem to only treat the symptoms rather than explain the actual causes.

I can’t thank this man enough. He helped me a lot

I had psoriasis at 12 ,diagnosed with psoriatic-arthritis at 26. Used a walker for 2 years because I could hardly walk without falling. AT 29 a Dermatologist prescribed me Cosentyx 300mg dose. I was covered with psoriasis on all limbs and face. Could not lift my arms past chest level. Couldn't walk to the bathroom without a cane or walker. Within 4 weeks, scales from my patches were gone.5 months I could walk without using a cane,in a year walking without pain.
