Don’t Start Psoriasis Treatment Without Reading This!

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin disorder that goes beyond just visible skin plaques—it is a systemic condition rooted in immune dysfunction and metabolic imbalances. While modern medicine relies on steroids, immunosuppressants, and biologics, these provide only temporary relief while posing long-term risks.

At EliteAyurveda, we focus on root-cause healing through a personalized Ayurvedic approach, correcting internal imbalances, detoxifying the body, and restoring skin health naturally.

🔍 What You Need to Know Before Starting Psoriasis Treatment

1️⃣ Psoriasis is NOT Just a Skin Disease

Many assume psoriasis is merely a cosmetic skin disorder, but it is actually a systemic inflammatory condition affecting the immune system. If left untreated, it can lead to:

✅ Psoriatic arthritis (joint pain & swelling)
✅ Metabolic disorders (diabetes, obesity)
✅ Cardiovascular risks (increased heart disease risk)
✅ Emotional distress (stress, anxiety, and depression)

This is why temporary symptomatic relief is NOT enough—long-term healing requires addressing the root cause of psoriasis.

2️⃣ Steroids & Biologics Are NOT Permanent Solutions

Conventional medicine often prescribes steroids, methotrexate, and biologics to suppress symptoms. However, these treatments:

🚨 Suppress the immune system, making you vulnerable to infections.
🚨 Cause severe side effects, including liver damage, kidney issues, and weight gain.
🚨 Lead to dependency, requiring higher doses over time.
🚨 Do NOT address the root cause, meaning psoriasis keeps coming back.

Instead of suppressing symptoms, Ayurveda focuses on detoxifying the body, balancing immunity, and promoting skin regeneration naturally.

🌿 The Ayurvedic Perspective on Psoriasis

In Ayurveda, psoriasis is classified as “Kushtha Roga”, caused by imbalances in Vata and Kapha doshas, along with toxin accumulation in the blood (Rakta Dhatu Dushti).

Root Causes of Psoriasis in Ayurveda

🔹 Poor Digestion (Agni Imbalance) → Leads to toxin buildup.
🔹 Accumulation of Ama (Metabolic Toxins) → Triggers immune dysfunction.
🔹 Dosha Imbalances (Vata & Kapha) → Causes dry, scaly patches & inflammation.
🔹 Emotional Stress → Worsens flare-ups by aggravating Pitta.
🔹 Dietary Triggers → Excessive dairy, fried foods, and incompatible foods.

To reverse psoriasis, we must correct digestion, eliminate toxins, and restore dosha balance—this is where Ayurveda excels.

🌱 Our Comprehensive Ayurvedic Approach to Psoriasis

At EliteAyurveda, we follow a personalized treatment plan that includes:

1️⃣ Customized Herbal Medications

✔ Specially formulated herbs to eliminate toxins and restore skin health.
✔ Strengthen the digestive fire (Agni) to prevent toxin buildup.
✔ Purify the blood (Rakta Shodhana) to reduce inflammation.

2️⃣ Detoxification Therapies (Shodhana) for Deep Healing

✔ Virechana (Therapeutic Purgation): Clears toxins from the liver & skin.
✔ Basti (Medicated Enema): Restores immune balance & prevents flare-ups.
✔ Raktamokshana (Bloodletting): Removes heat and impurities from the blood.

Unlike modern treatments that suppress the immune system, Ayurvedic detox therapies correct immune dysfunction naturally.

3️⃣ Psoriasis-Specific Diet Plan

✔ Avoid:
🚫 Dairy, fried foods, and processed sugars (Kapha-aggravating foods)
🚫 Sour, fermented, and spicy foods (Pitta-aggravating foods)

✔ Include:
✅ Fresh fruits & vegetables (cooling, anti-inflammatory)
✅ Turmeric, neem, and aloe vera (natural blood purifiers)
