What Is the Role of Ayurvedic Diet for Psoriasis? How Can Diet Help Manage Psoriasis Symptoms? - #13558

Anonymously

I’ve been diagnosed with psoriasis and want to know how an Ayurvedic diet can help manage the symptoms. I’ve heard that Ayurvedic diets focus on balancing the doshas and eliminating toxins from the body, which can help reduce inflammation and improve skin health. What kinds of foods and herbs are recommended in an Ayurvedic diet for psoriasis? I’m curious about the specific foods to include, such as turmeric, ghee, and ginger, and which foods to avoid, such as spicy foods, processed sugars, and dairy. If anyone has followed an Ayurvedic diet for psoriasis, please share your experience. Did it help with reducing flare-ups, soothing the skin, or improving digestion? How long did it take to see results, and were there any lifestyle adjustments or herbal remedies that helped?

An Ayurvedic diet for psoriasis focuses on reducing inflammation, detoxifying the body, and balancing the Pitta and Kapha doshas to prevent flare-ups. Foods to Include: ✅ Turmeric – Anti-inflammatory & detoxifying ✅ Ghee – Nourishes skin & improves digestion ✅ Ginger – Aids digestion & reduces inflammation ✅ Bitter foods (Neem, Karela) – Purify blood & reduce toxins ✅ Fresh vegetables & fruits – Support skin health ✅ Warm herbal teas (Triphala, Licorice) – Cleanse the body Foods to Avoid: ❌ Spicy & oily foods – Aggravate Pitta, triggering flare-ups ❌ Processed sugars & junk food – Increase inflammation ❌ Dairy & red meat – Hard to digest, worsening skin issues ❌ Fermented & sour foods – Can trigger itching Personal Experiences: Many people report reduced flare-ups and better digestion within 2-4 weeks of following an Ayurvedic diet. Adding Panchakarma detox therapy and herbal remedies like Neem & Manjistha further improves skin healing. Hydration with warm water & herbal teas speeds up detoxification.
