Key Supplements
- Vitamin D3 10,000-20,000 IU/day (CRITICAL—immune modulation, skin cell regulation, most psoriasis patients severely deficient, optimal level 80-100 for psoriasis—higher than general health, monitor levels), Omega-3 (EPA/DHA) 4-6g/day (anti-inflammatory, proven effective for psoriasis), Curcumin 1-2g 3x/day (anti-inflammatory, blocks TNF-alpha, IL-17), Quercetin 1000mg 2-3x/day (anti-inflammatory, immune modulation), Zinc 30-50mg (skin health, immune), Selenium 200-400mcg (antioxidant, immune), Vitamin A 10,000-25,000 IU or Beta-carotene (skin cell turnover regulation—but don't megadose, too much vitamin A can worsen), Probiotics 50-100B CFU (gut-immune modulation), L-Glutamine 10-20g/day (gut healing), Digestive Enzymes, Milk Thistle 300mg 3x/day (liver support—detoxification), Berberine 500mg 3x/day (if gut dysbiosis), Boswellia 500mg 3x/day (anti-inflammatory), Low-Dose Naltrexone (LDN) 1.5-4.5mg bedtime (immune modulation—many psoriasis patients improve dramatically), Grape Seed Extract 200-400mg (antioxidant, anti-inflammatory), Evening Primrose Oil or GLA 1000mg 2x/day (skin inflammation), Aloe Vera (topical and oral—200mg extract 2x/day or juice), Sarsaparilla (traditional for psoriasis), Oregon Grape Root (topical and oral—berberine content), Topical: Vitamin D cream (calcipotriene—prescription, or natural vitamin D in base), Aloe vera gel (anti-inflammatory, soothing), Coconut oil (moisturize, antimicrobial), Oatmeal baths (colloidal oatmeal—soothing, reduces itch), Dead Sea salts (bath—traditional for psoriasis), Capsaicin cream (reduces itch, pain—desensitizes nerves), Apple cider vinegar (diluted—for scalp psoriasis), Turmeric paste
Key Lab Markers
- Clinical diagnosis (characteristic plaques—thick, red, silvery scales, extensor surfaces, scalp, nails), Skin biopsy (if diagnosis unclear—shows parakeratosis, hyperproliferation, inflammatory infiltrate), Psoriatic Arthritis screening (joint pain, swelling—20-30% of psoriasis patients develop, X-rays, inflammatory markers), Comprehensive stool test (gut dysbiosis, inflammation, leaky gut), Zonulin (intestinal permeability), Food sensitivity panel (IgG/IgA—identify triggers), Strep screen (throat culture—if recent infection, trigger for guttate psoriasis), Candida testing (antibodies, stool, organic acids), Vitamin D (optimal 80-100 for psoriasis—most severely deficient), Omega-3 Index (optimal >8%), Zinc, Selenium, CBC, Comprehensive metabolic panel, Inflammatory markers (hs-CRP, ESR), Thyroid panel (autoimmune overlap—check for Hashimoto's), ANA (other autoimmune conditions), Metabolic screening (fasting glucose, insulin, lipids—psoriasis associated with metabolic syndrome), HLA-Cw6 genetic test (if interested—predicts better response to biologics, but not necessary for management)
