069: Is Psoriasis A Gut Problem?

I’ve long found that psoriasis clients have connections to gut and liver issues even if they have absolutely no symptoms.

Because I’ve mentioned before that there are 16 root causes of chronic skin rash conditions like psoriasis, what I’m about to share with you pretty mind-blowing!

I stumbled across a paper in a major dermatology journal that details some really incredible information that in many respects flies in the face of how we currently address psoriasis.

The question that I’m left with is… why isn’t this making its way down to the doctor’s office?

If you’ve only been told that psoriasis is a skin problem, get ready to have that notion completely flipped on its head!

In this episode:

• Ground-breaking paper discussion by Dr. P. Haines Ely published in 2018
• Many connections between psoriasis and gut problems
• Why poor protein breakdown (from your diet) could be a major factor
• Gut infections commonly found in psoriasis
• Hidden trigger for itchy psoriatic lesions
• Ties between Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease and Psoriasis

Quotes:

Polyamines are byproducts of protein purification. Their high levels present in psoriatic skin means that you aren’t properly breaking down and absorbing dietary protein and ultimately allows your microbiome to ferment them. And then we’re shockingly seeing these polyamines out in the skin of those with psoriasis.

If you’ve ever wondered — is psoriasis caused by a leaky gut? The answer is YES. He then goes on to state that “Recent data confirms the presence of gut-derived bacterial DNA in psoriatic blood. The species identified included Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae…”
