Psoriasis
I’ve found that psoriasis is a sign that deeper imbalances are occurring within the body, and these to be exact: the gut, the liver, high levels of inflammation and an overstimulated immune system. Without fail, when my clients detox their liver and gut, the psoriasis comes up and out and is healed. This process can take 3-6 months if followed to the tee.
In my 17 years of working with natural health, I have consistently seen this natural approach work because it focuses on addressing the root causes from the inside out rather than just the symptoms. The goal of this protocol is to support the liver, restore gut health, remove common triggers, create new cellular memory (a new body that doesn’t have cells of psoriasis) and calm the immune system, allowing the body to heal and rebalance naturally.
