Changing what you eat can make all the difference in the world, especially when you have psoriasis. Our bodies are filled with toxins from the air we breathe to the food we eat. The best way to remove these toxins is through the urine and not through the skin; this is especially important for sufferers of psoriasis.
If you are diagnosed with psoriasis, it is best to change your eating habits as soon as possible to alleviate the symptoms. Eating raw and whole foods as opposed to processed foods is a good start. You want to keep the toxins in the system to a minimum and this can be done by eating organic produce instead of produce grown using pesticides. If organic food is out of your reach, make sure to at least to wash your fruits and vegetables well to remove all the chemicals.
Raw VS Processed Food
Raw is the best way to consume vegetables because they lose some nutrients when cooked. Raw vegetables are higher in fiber and are easy for the digestive system to process. Some foods that are easy for the digestive system to process are beans, seafood, nuts, green, leafy vegetables, and fresh fruit. The more fruit and vegetables that are in your diet the less likely you are to develop allergies.
Good Fats VS Bad Fats
Fats are normally not great for your body, but the body does need fatty acids to properly function. Fatty acids play a part in eliminating and reducing inflammation. Some of the best fatty acids you can add to the diet are found in cold water fish, flax seed, and green leafy vegetables.
Sea Salt VS Iodized Salt
High sodium food is generally not good for you and it can leave you dehydrated. Not all salt is created equal though. Swapping out your refined salt with sea salt is a more natural, healthy choice. Natural sea salt will raise your energy, help relieve the symptoms of allergies and rashes, protect against radiation, balance the acid in the body, give you important minerals, add resistance to infection, and replace lost electrolytes.
By simply changing what you eat, the body can take steps to naturally heal itself and stay healthier. BOLA TANGKAS
