Abstract :

Introduction: Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory disorder affecting 2–3% of the global population, characterized by erythematous, scaly plaques and recurrent relapses. While genetics and immune dysfunction play a central role, evidence indicates that diet, lifestyle, and skin care influence disease severity and relapse frequency. Aim: To evaluate the supportive role of dietary adjustments, lifestyle modifications, and skin care in psoriasis management. Objective: • Assess the impact of dietary patterns on psoriasis severity. • Evaluate lifestyle changes, including stress management, in disease control. • Determine benefits of skin care practices in preventing flareups. Patients and Methods: A literature-based observational review was performed, synthesizing findings from peer-reviewed studies involving over 1,000 psoriasis patients. Variables studied included dietary changes (anti-inflammatory, plant-based, omega-3- rich diets), lifestyle modifications (weight control, exercise, stress reduction), and skin care practices (moisturizing, gentle cleansing, sun protection). Results: • 50% reported symptom worsening linked to processed sugars, red meats, and dairy. • Plant-based, antioxidant-rich, and omega-3 diets reduced severity by up to 35%. • Obesity increased psoriasis risk by 1.5–2 times. • Stress was a trigger in up to 80% of cases; yoga, meditation, and adequate sleep improved disease stability. • Moisturizing and gentle cleansing reduced flare frequency and supported skin barrier function. Conclusion: Diet, lifestyle, and skin care, while not curative, significantly enhance treatment outcomes, improve quality of life, and may prolong remission when integrated with medical therapy.
