Low Skin Carotenoid Levels Observed in Subjects with PsoriasisNot unlike Howie Mandel and his OCD that can very well be treated with orthomolecular medicine, psoriasis can also be helped in a major way with natural approaches.
In a cross-sectional study involving 44 subjects with psoriasis and 72 controls, results indicate that patients with psoriasis have significantly lower skin carotenoid levels, compared with controls. Additionally, after adjusting for confounders, significant association was observed between presence of psoriasis and lower levels of skin carotenoid levels. Thus, the authors of this study conclude, "Patients with psoriasis appear to have lower skin carotenoid counts than patients without psoriasis."

Other lifestyle changes also need to be made.
