HELLO, Psoriasis is an autoimmune inflammatory skin condition. From an Ayurvedic view, it is often correlated with Kitibha/Eka-kushta, mainly involving vata + kapha imbalace with impure Blood Since you mentioned moderate patches for 10 months and itching improved with aloe vera , that’s good sign AYURVEDIC DIET PLAN -old rice, barley, wheat -moong dal= light and anti inflammatory -boiled vegetbles= bottle gourd , ridge gourd , bitter gourd, pumpkin -leafy greens -turmeric +black pepper in cooking -neem leaves very small quantity once or twice weekly -amla daily 1 fruit or 1 tsp powder -warm water throughout the day -1 tsp cow ghee daily AVOID STRCITLY -curd especially at night -fish + milk combination -excess red meat -pickles, bakery items -cold drinks, ice cream -alcohol and smoking major triggers In Ayurveda, psoriasis worsens with Viruddha Ahara (incompatible foods) like milk + salty foods, fruit+ milk, fish+dairy HOME REMEDIES 1)BLOOD PURIFICATION SUPPORT -MAHAMANJISTHADI KASHAYA= 20ml + equal water twice daily after meals -neem + amla juice 20 ml morning empty stomach 2) DIGESTION CORRECTION Psoriasis improves when digestion is balanced -1/2 tsp Triphala powder at night with warm water -avoid overeating 3) EXTERNAL CARE -continue Aloe vera gel -Coconut oil + pinch turmeric apply locally -avoid harsh soaps LIFESTYLE ADVICE -sleep before 10:30 pm -avoid daytime sleeping -practice pranayam especially anulom vilom -reduce stress stress directly worsens psoriasis Psoriasis is chronic and autoimmune.

Hello dear, For moderate psoriasis- avoid 1.milk products except ghee . You can apply ghee to your patches it works great. 2. Sour , salty like papad , achar , and sugary sweet products like mithai or chocolate. Have light meals and have early dinner to digest all the meals. Dont take stress, start meditating. Stress is one of the main culprit

Favour: -Fresh vegetables (bitter gourd, bottle gourd, spinach, cucumber) -Whole grains (barley, millet, oats) -Fruits (amla, pomegranate, papaya) -Legumes (mung dal, lentils) -Warm water, herbal teas (neem, manjishtha, turmeric) Lifestyle Support— Regular yoga & pranayama: Anulom-Vilom, Sheetali for cooling effect. Oil massage: Coconut oil or medicated oils like Mahamarichyadi Taila for local patches. Stress management: Meditation, as stress often triggers psoriasis. Routine: Early meals, avoid late-night eating, maintain regular sleep. WARM REGARDS DR. ANJALI SEHRAWAT
