143: Inverse Psoriasis + Candida Connection

Though it’s a less common form of psoriasis, Inverse Psoriasis (IP) impacts about 30% of those living with Plaque Psoriasis.

One thing about having Inverse Psoriasis that really caught my attention was the connection to getting fungal infections at the site of IP rashes!

I always ask clients regardless of what their main concern is if they have had issues with fungus or yeast in other areas of the body.

And it’s not uncommon for me to find that fungal issues elsewhere tend to match up to having fungal overgrowth in the gut.

I wanted to share my alternative perspective on Inverse Psoriasis so that if you’re struggling with it (or you know someone who is), you can use it as a clue!

You don’t have to feel embarrassed or live in shame about it because knowing that IP is present could help you identify other issues driving your psoriasis under the surface.

In this episode:

• What is inverse psoriasis?
• Candida + other bacteria that make IP worse
• Conventional ways IP is addressed
• Shocking candida stat that all Psoriasis warriors should know
• Alterative thoughts on IP + where to dig deeper

Quotes:

One study found that 56.6% of Inverse Psoriasis rashes had Corynebacterium minutissimum present making symptoms worse.

A 2018 paper found that the “prevalence of Candida spp. colonization was significantly higher in patients with psoriasis compared with the control group.”
