“…Similarly, an energy-restricted diet intended to enhance the intake of omega-3 and decrease omega-6 PUFAs improved the metabolic profile and increased the responsiveness to immunomodulating treatment in obese psoriatic patients [ 73 ]. Regardless of whether the role of the diet in modulating the gut microbiota in psoriasis patients is not fully understood, considering that psoriasis patients usually tend to have a hypercaloric diet rich in processed foods, saturated fats, sugar and sodium with low nutritional quality and a high inflammation profile [ 77 ], it is essential to consider modifying dietary habits among these patients as an adjuvant therapy to the immunomodulating treatment.…”

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with autoimmune pathogenic characteristics and is caused by chronic inflammation, which results in uncontrolled keratinocyte growth and defective differentiation. The link between the gut microbiota and immune system regulation opened a novel angle to understand the pathogenesis of many chronic multifactorial diseases, including psoriasis. Current evidence suggests that modulation of the gut microbiota, both through dietary approaches and through supplementation with probiotics and prebiotics, could represent a novel therapeutic approach. The present work aims to highlight the latest scientific evidence regarding the microbiome alterations of psoriatic patients, as well as state of the art insights in terms of microbiome-targeted therapies as promising preventive and therapeutic tools for psoriasis.

“…Of the total number of patients, 67% reported weight change, of which 58% claimed weight gain and 42% claimed weight loss. Coincident data were found in a study carried out in Botucatu/Southeastern Brazil with 94 psoriatic patients, in which 40% were overweight, 48% obese and 12% were eutrophic (POLO et al, 2020).…”

Psoriasis is defined as an immune-mediated disease, which has a chronic and relapsing nature, multifactorial etiology, strong participation of genetic, immunological and environmental factors. Studies show the association of psoriasis with risk factors for cardiovascular diseases. An adequate diet combined with the practice of physical activity is capable of positively influencing the prognosis of the disease. The present study aimed to assess the nutritional status and physical activity practice of patients diagnosed with psoriasis seen at the Reference, Support and Treatment Center for Psoriasis Patients of the University Hospital Lauro Wanderley (HULW), in João Pessoa, Paraiba state from October to December 2018. Patients were evaluated by means of a semi-structured questionnaire to collect information such as identification data, skin color, family history of the disease, previous pathological history, life habits and feeding. High BMI prevailed in 80% of the patients, being 35% overweight and 45% obese. The result showed that 45% of the patients had a diagnosis of type 2 DM and 60% of SAH. When asked about the diagnosis of dyslipidemia, 25% of the patients reported having high cholesterol and/or triglyceride and 10% of the patients did not know how to report. With regard to the practice of physical activity, 65% of patients reported performing physical activities, of which 84.6% performed it at a frequency of 1 to 3 times a week and 15.4%, from 4 to 7 times. This preliminary study allowed us to identify the nutritional profile and the practice of physical activity of individuals with psoriasis treated at a Reference Center. The results showed the coexistence of psoriasis and comorbidities related to the metabolic syndrome in the majority of patients evaluated, with a predominance of obesity, systemic arterial hypertension and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Non-Pharmacological Treatments of Psoriasis in Persian Medicine a Narrative Review

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Psoriasis is a chronic disease that has no definitive cure. In this review study, the main sources of Persian Medicine (PM) such as the Canon of Medicine (by Avicenna) and Al-Havi (by Rhazes) were assessed to identify non-pharmacological treatments for psoriasis. Several treatments that are recommended for this disease include nutritional advice, lifestyle modifications, and manipulation therapy such as wet cupping ( Hijamah ), leech therapy, and phlebotomy ( Fasd ). These recommendations may help to prevent recurrence and be useful in improving psoriasis. The efficacy of PM recommendations to improve psoriasis should be evaluated in future studies.
