I was 15 years old and to my horror I woke up one morning with red flaky patches on my elbows. At the time, I was mortified. I quickly put on my Doctors hat and scoured the internet to self diagnose myself. The photos that popped up on the internet were terrifying. Photo after photo of amazing people that have been stricken with this horrible disease. I went to the doctors and they diagnosed me with psoriasis. And of course they prescribed me with a psoriasis treatment: oral steroids and steroid creams.

I used their prescribed psoriasis treatment for the next 15 years. It worked, a little, but in my early 30’s my psoriasis started getting worse. It spread to my knees, arms, shins, and scalp. Needless to say, I was stressed out. At that point, I decided I needed to take my psoriasis treatment more serious. I searched psoriasis forums for hours on end looking for a secret weapon to blast away my psoriasis. Now I didn’t find a secret weapon but what I did find, through reading 1000’s of posts, was a common thread for treating psoriasis. Below is what I did to get rid of my psoriasis in 60 days.

I 100% treated my psoriasis through my diet. I ate an extremely strict diet that consisted of the following:

• Lots of water
• Daily juicing
• Fish
• Broccoli
• Brown rice

I ate the above everyday for my psoriasis treatment. This was EXTREMELY difficult. Especially for me, whose daily nutrition consisted of fast food and beer. The most challenging part was, I had no idea if it was going to work, but I had faith. In all of my reading, there seemed to be a consistent theme of people healing their psoriasis through healthy eating in 60 days. After 59 days I saw 0 results. It was more than a little demoralizing. But on the 60th day I woke up and 90% of my psoriasis was completely gone. I know it sounds crazy but it’s true. I didn’t see any incremental improvements. It all virtually vanished overnight.

Fast forward 5 years to today, and of course most of my psoriasis is back. I like to eat and drink too much to partake in this regimen permanently, but it is nice to know that I can manage my psoriasis through a healthy diet. In addition, with more reading and research, I have found many articles that reference a possible link to inflammation and psoriasis. With the leading causes for inflammation being leaky gut or candida.

I hope this article can help anyone that is struggling with psoriasis. I can’t promise that everyone will have the same results as I did, with the outlined psoriasis treatment, but I believe eating a healthy diet can go a long ways in fighting this manageable disease.
