Numerous viable dietary approaches to psoriasis management (such as fasting, a vegetarian diet or diets rich in omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil). For the control of psoriasis, people with moderate to severe illness can benefit from leading a healthy lifestyle and losing weight.

ImuPro - Management of psoriasis

Our immune system produces IgG, a defence protein that can identify a foreign substance. The immune system creates IgG antibodies specific to foods and considers food components intruders. Consuming the same foods resulting in IgG-mediated hypersensitivity reactions may accelerate the onset of inflammatory illnesses like psoriasis.

Some psoriasis patients have elevated IgG antibodies against gluten, the wheat protein, according to research conducted by ImuPro. The symptoms of these patients significantly improved after they adopted a gluten-free diet.

The ImuPro change in diet, followed by identifying IgG-mediated food hypersensitivity, may be beneficial for managing psoriasis.
