Psoriasis, along with other autoimmune diseases like hair loss or alopecia, often have interconnected roots in the body’s immune response. According to Ayurveda, conditions like psoriasis might be related to an imbalance in the doshas, particularly Vata and Kapha. When these doshas become aggravated, they disrupt the balance in the body, leading to skin issues and other autoimmune manifestations.
One key reason you might be experiencing these autoimmune issues design in both hair and skin might be due to Ama, a toxic byproduct of improper digestion, and low Agni or digestive fire. When the digestive system is compromised, it can lead to a buildup of Ama, which circulates through the body and settles in joints or skin, creating inflammation. This inflammation is viewed as a primary factor in autoimmune responses.
For managing psoriasis through Ayurveda and preventing further autoimmune conditions, focusing on your digestion is crucial. Begin with a diet that pacifies Vata and Kapha doshas. Include warm, cooked, and easy-to-digest foods. Avoid cold foods, dairy, and processed items as they can increase Kapha. Ghee and turmeric are beneficial, as they support Agni and reduce inflammation. Try including ginger and black pepper, which enhance digestion and prevent formation of Ama.
Daily routines or Dinacharya, can also play an important role. Dry brushing the skin with a soft brush can help manage Kapha and improve skin texture. Follow this with oil massage using sesame or sunflower oil to pacify aggravated doshas and nourish the skin. Ensuring adequate hydration with warm water and herbal teas like fennel or cumin tea can be quite supportive.
Stress can exacerbate autoimmune diseases, including psoriasis. Incorporating daily practices like yoga, pranayama (breathing exercises), and meditation can help balance your doshas and reduce stress. Aim for at least 30 minutes of practice daily.
If symptoms persist or are severe, it’s essential to consult an Ayurvedic physician who can provide personalized guidance. Sometimes, panchakarma or other more intensive detoxifying treatments might be necessary under professional supervision. On occasion, autoimune diseases do require integrated approaches involving conventional medicine along with Ayurvedic treatments, so keeping communication open with healthcare providers is always, recommended.
