A genetic condition affecting millions of people, psoriasis is an immune system reaction in which the skin replicates too quickly. Silvery scaly red plaques, often symmetric, can be few or many, increasing with stress, infection, weather changes, and weight gain. It can involve scalp, nails, genitals, and joints. Multiple topical remedies are available for this chronic condition; systemic medicines carry different risks of toxicity. Most importantly, people have improvement with sunlight, saltwater, exercise, and dietary and lifestyle changes. Avoidance of alcohol, a low glycemic diet, nutritional supplements along with a regular exercise regimen are all recommended.
