Skin Smarts

Keeping up with the uncomfortable skin symptoms of psoriasis can feel like a full-time job. And you don’t even get weekends off.

But did you know psoriasis goes far deeper than your epidermis? Everybody talks about the skin part of psoriasis (like itching, sensitivity, swelling, cracking, and pain), but that’s just one piece of a larger puzzle.

We’re here to give you the big picture. In this lesson series, you’ll get a research-backed rundown on how to tame the full-body, under-the-skin inflammation that comes with psoriasis.

We’ll equip you with ways to quell stress flares, easy diet changes that can have a big impact, exercise tips and alternatives for when working out feels impossible, and integrative medicine approaches that actually work (plus a heads up about a few that don’t).

But first: skin. Finding the right skin care is essential — both to soothe your skin and to help prevent flares in the first place.
