Psoriasis

Two to three percent of world population are concerned.

Unknown in children, its manifestations affect individuals from middle age onwards and prevalence is highest in aging population.

Hence, we can ask ourselves what factors apart from genetics could be involved.

Degeneration of stomach parietal cells is most common autoimmune disease.

Thus, deficit in Vitamin B12 could play a central role in etiology. (Refer to chapter Vitamin B12!) 

This fact had been discovered in the nineties by an Austrian representant in pharmacy, whose name has been completely ignored in publications. 

He was proposing a cream of vitamin B12 in avocado oil. 

Psoriasis arthritis is frequent, and presents mostly with small peripheral bone erosions in inter- phalangeal joints of hands and feet.

10-15% of this ailment are present in absence of psoriasis itself, as a skin disorder.

Family history is almost always positive!

Several treatments are available from specialists.

Ensuing deformity of hands in old age has frequently to do with concomitant chondrocalcinosis.

As almost 50% of our population, in industrialized countries, above 50 has minor manifestations of pseudo-gout (chondrocalcinosis);

These 2 diseases mingle in patients and are difficult to distinguish one from the other, as they both interest same parts of skeleton.

Chondrocalcinosis is nothing else than a metabolic disease, owing to high protein intake and sedentary lifestyle.

Avoiding those 2 parameters improves tremendously bouts of pseudo-gout.

As to psoriasis arthritis, it is an auto-immune disorder, with genetic predisposition.

If we understand pretty well rhematoid arthritis nowadays, another articular disease, which is auto-immune in origin, but concerns largely seric immunity, that is condition is tightly linked to autoantibodies in blood;

We (medical practitioners) are still  at the beginning of understanding cellular immunity;

– And in similarity have little knowledge about immune diseases of this lineage;

Recent publications state that venom of several species of insects can help in this situation. My great-grand father Malcho reported a tremendous exacerbation of his psoriasis arthritis after exposure to aunt’s venom. 

Most known is bee venom. 

The study proposes two to three bee stings per week.

Beware, bee allergies are frequent!

If you are an atopic person, you should consult the specialist before using such a treatment.

If you have any kind of allergy, you can proceed carefully, by allowing only a small amount of bee venom to enter your skin at the beginning, and then increasing it accordingly with time.

Allergy to insect poison manifests first in most cases with slight tingling around the neck and mouth.

Observe yourself carefully during these procedures, and if you feel such an event, interrupt the treatment immediately! 

Paracelsus (Swiss physician, 1493-1541) was saying: “The difference between a medicine and a poison is in the dose.” 

We can only wonder how many Treasures of Earth the Modern World is destroying. 

There are so many animal species which simply disappear and could add so much to our  pharmacy! 

Skin manifestations of psoriasis depend mainly on Vitamins B12 and D in body stores, but escape in predisposed individuals when those are only slightly low. 

Hence, treatment for prevention  of such can be: 

1. Subcutaneous injections of vitamin B12 and oral vitamin D (therapy for psoriasis arthritis) or, 
2. Topical oily ointement of both vitamins or, 
3. Supplements of Vitamin B12 and sun-baths, or solarium (Avoid sun-burn!)
