Diet and psoriasis, part III: Role of nutritional supplements

Abstract: Psoriasis patients are increasingly turning to the use of alternative and complementary medicine to manage their psoriasis. Patients often inquire about what dietary supplements may be beneficial, including the use of oral vitamin D, vitamin B12, selenium, and omega-3 fatty acids in fish oils. In this review we examine the extent to which each of these common nutritional interventions has been studied for the treatment of psoriasis. We weighed evidence from both controlled and uncontrolled prospective trials. … Show more

“…Association of psoriasis severity and high body mass index (BMI) score has been identified in several recent researches which suggest that bodyweight loss can improve Psoriasis Area and Severity Index score of the patients . In addition, it is certain that healthy eating patterns would benefit psoriatic patients, including the use of oral vitamin B12, vitamin D, selenium and omega‐3 fatty acids in fish oils . As stated earlier, the optimal concentration of vitamin D (25[OH]D) in serum circulating level is 30–50 ng/mL; if obese and lean subjects take the same dose, the circulating level of vitamin D in the obese subject would be insufficient, leaving gradually less 25(OH)D in the organism.…”

“…A variety of studies have shown that oral vitamin D supplementation and vitamin D analogues have favorable clinical responses and maintain a similar safety profile to topical forms. Although patients did not experience adverse outcomes, the risk of hypercalcemia and bone demineralization is theoretically possible [38][39][40][41]. With the literature support for oral vitamin D, the next step is producing a vitamin D analog that can target the underlying pathophysiology of psoriatic lesions while minimizing adverse effects.…”
