Best diet for psoriasis patients in India? Struggling to find the right foods - #1152
I was diagnosed with psoriasis about 2 years ago, and it’s been a tough journey since then. I’ve tried various ointments and medications, but the flare-ups keep coming back, especially during the winter. I’ve heard a lot about the role of diet in managing psoriasis, but I’m confused about what to eat and what to avoid, especially considering Indian food habits. I typically eat a lot of rice, lentils, and spicy food — I’m wondering if these could be making my symptoms worse. I’ve read that avoiding certain foods like dairy, nightshades (tomatoes, brinjal), and too much sugar might help. But what about staples like chapati and ghee? Are they safe to include in my diet? Should I be focusing more on anti-inflammatory foods or specific herbs? I’ve seen suggestions for neem and turmeric, but not sure how to incorporate them daily. How to manage psoriasis through an Indian diet? I would really appreciate any meal plans or tips
