New Cure for Psoriasis

Our species is tough, resilient and durable. Human expected average lifespan is now over 80 years in most developed countries, with more centenarians every year. Expanding scientific, biological and medical knowledge is now teaching us that there are more factors than the more obvious short term effects of diet and stress. There are also important (and sometimes subtle) long term effects that should be taken into account.

In nutrition, this means that there is a minimum amount of Vitamin C we need to keep from getting scurvy. So the recommended daily amount of Vitamin C was once set just high enough to keep people from getting scurvy. Later we began to realize that while low amounts of vitamin C kept us from getting sick, they did not promote optimal health.

The cycle for getting scurvy is measured in months. There is a longer general health cycle in play, measured in years, which calls for much higher vitamin C daily allowance levels. There are still longer cycles of nutrient deprivation and lifestyles involving many different nutrients, phytochemicals, antioxidants, etc. that lead to diabetes, circulatory problems, heart disease and maybe alzheimer’s disese.

We also know now that certain pollutants (like lead) and certain substances found in processed foods (like trans fats) have long-term life-shortening effects on us humans. All this pushes us to avoid artificial drug solutions and move toward more natural cures.

This rapidly evolving perspective now helps us with uterine fibroids treatment, with treating inverse psoriasis and in shrinking ovarian cysts..

Our biochemistry is quite complex. There are genetic links to more diseases and conditions than we ever suspected just a few years ago. As we continue to decode the complex interrelations of genetics, DNA, biochemistry and causes and effects of what we ingest, we are finding new solutions to old problems in often surprising places.
