The Benefits of Curcumin in Psoriasis Treatment


CURCUMIN – A NATURAL BIOLOGIC FOR PSORIASIS

Most of you have likely done a great deal of research into the causes and remedies for psoriasis and eczema and are likely to have taken some form of powerful medication at some point, that suppresses the symptoms, but doesn’t help to completely control the disease in a permanent or healthy way.  Eventually, removing those drugs generally results in more flare ups and creates a cycle that is painful, stressful and debilitating.

What we would like to do here at M-Folia, is to search together for more natural ways to remove the underlying causes for this terrible skin condition and embark on a journey of discovery that will eventually lead to a lifestyle that is sustainable and safe, without health threatening drug treatments, finding solutions which will help you to take control of your psoriasis symptoms and take back control of your life.

In 1979, researchers discovered, by accident, that a drug called cyclosporine, which suppresses the immune system, can also clear psoriasis. This offered one of the first clues that psoriasis was an autoimmune disease. Since then, it has been proven that your immune system produces a substance called TNF Alpha (Tumor Necrosis Factor). This is a protein made by the white blood cells in response to inflammation or infection throughout the body. If you have psoriasis, high levels of TNF play a role in the raised, red skin plaques, joint swelling and redness that come with the disease.

What happens to the TNF in Psoriasis?

With psoriasis, T-cells suddenly and inexplicably migrate to the epidermis and secrete TNF as if the body were under attack.  The ensuing inflammation is believed to stimulate the hyper-production of skin cells, known as keratinocytes, which make up around 90 percent of the epidermis.

Studies determined, as a result of this discovery, that inhibiting the production of TNF through pharmaceuticals known as Biologics was an effective way to help with autoimmune disease and, subsequently, to reduce or clear the symptoms of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis.

But there are alternative ways to inhibit TNF through diet and lifestyle.

Numerous reports have suggested that the production of TNF can be suppressed by curcumin which is a natural compound found in Turmeric.

Curcumin is an active herbal ingredient possessing a surprisingly wide range of beneficial properties for treating Psoriasis, including anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity. Recently, it has been shown in studies to effectively inhibit TNF Alpha.  It is present in Turmeric but usually in quite small quantities.  There are, however, Turmeric supplements available with 95% Curcumin which are highly bio available such as Turmeric 95.

Curcumin has been proven helpful in treating Psoriasis because it is strongly anti-inflammatory. It monitors cellular interactions to relieve the markers of the disease, strengthening skin cell defenses and blocking harmful agents.  In fact, it’s so powerful that it matches the effectiveness of some anti-inflammatory drugs, without the side effects.

With supplements there is often a low uptake in the body (low bioavailability) so we strongly recommend taking Liposomal Curcumin. Liposomes are an efficient alternative to injection by allowing curcuminoids to enter directly into the bloodstream and into the cells. Active ingredients are safely delivered through the digestive system, which means that absorption can be increased by up to 98%.

I have recently been diagnosed with psoriasis and was looking for something that I could treat it with that wasn't a prescription medicine. I came across M Folia and thought I would give the lotion and cream a try. My parcel arrived on the date expected and was well packaged. I decided to use the products before going to bed for the night in place of my Vitamin D cream but I wasn't prepared for the results I saw in the morning. My skin looked pink and rosy and the dry flaky patches were moisturised. Over the next few day's use my psoriasis really started to clear up to the point where I just now have a few red areas which I am still treating. The cream has a lovely feel and doesn't leave your skin greasy. Overall, I am very satisfied with M Folia.

My daughter has suffered with this condition over 20 years. I have seen her in a terrible state, with it coming up all over her. She is a hairdresser by trade and so is very conscious of her hair. Within one night of using the products I purchased it had all cleared up. UNBELIEVABLE PRODUCT. Would highly recommend to anyone. She is so different. thank you.

I have endured psoriasis for 30 years but very mildly on scalp and outer ears. My son(57),daughter(60),grandson(35),daughter(30) also suffer on various parts of the body. I am not aware of previous generations suffering, though information is scant. I have tried many things over the years. Most recently a beconase steroidal liquid and capsal shampoo. Having now used your product for about 2 months I feel that I have at last found something which leaves me much less itchy and generally in a much improved situation. I cannot say that is has "all gone" because it hasn't, but I am , as I said feeling hopeful for the future. Which, at 87, is saying a lot! From the family's situation each person seems to react differently to the condition and to the medications, which leads me to think that each case has to be handled individually. What works for one may often not work for another. I have one question. The flesh toned cream. Is it suitable for putting on my outer ears? I hope this is helpful Bruce Henderson

Brilliant service and brilliant product, this is the only conditioner that works on my itchy scalp. I do find that it works better if after shampooing I leave a very small amount directly on to the itchy areas of my scalp.

Wonderful products I had an outbreak on my scalp about 30 years ago. I talked it through with my GP at the time who had heard about MFolia benefits and after a long search for good products found Taylor Jackson. I used the scalp oil, the shampoo and the conditioner at first and when it cleared, I carried on using shampoo and conditioner. Although all symptoms have disappeared, I have only used these ever since. These are great products and importantly are SLS free. The multipacks are great value too. I definitely recommend these products. Whenever I have needed to speak to customer services they are friendly and always very helpful.

I have had psoriasis since i was a teenager and have been prescribed all sorts of products (including steriod creams) that never worked/helped. I discovered M.folia whilst browsing the internet and have been using it now for many years. I no longer have any plaques on my body just some stubborn patches on my scalp which i treat with the scalp oil, shampoo and conditioner. These are great products; they soothe and damp down any outbreaks i may get, smell fresh and most importantly to me are SLS free. The company is easy to deal with, customer services are friendly, quick to respond and always very helpful.
