The severity of your Psoriasis may be subject to and influenced by several other factors under your control. Here is a partial list of lifestyle and/or dietary changes to consider:

• Make sure, through the diagnosis of one or more dermatologists, that indeed you have psoriasis etc. 
• Reduce stress levels.
• If possible expose the Psoriasis affected areas to fresh air and sun.
• Do not use, or use very small, amounts of alcohol.
• Do not smoke.
• Do not eat spicy or hot and or acidic foods.
• Be overall health conscious in your living style, the type and amounts of food that you take etc.
• Rinse the affected skin only in lukewarm water, sea water or a baking soda bath. Use no synthetic and/ or aggressive soaps which contain harsh ingredients or detergents. Use vegetal, Glycerin, or Psorinol Scalp & Body Wash or "soaps"  with a Cucumber, Algae's or Aloe Vera base. You can use these sorts of soaps to also wash your scalp. (Also read "All About Soap")
• If you use topical products to control your psoriasis, it is recommended to keep your skin somewhat moist after you have taken your shower or bath. 
• Do not use creams. Ointments, although you may hate them for their "greasiness", are better for the psoriatic skin. They make the skin softer seal the skin off so that the moist contained in the skin stays there longer. Creams make the skin more tense because of the certain ingredients that they can contain but they also allow the water in the skin to "evaporate" sooner because creams do not seal the skin off as well as ointments do.
• When using the topical PsoriaLess® rub the product in the skin while it is somewhat moist. The effects are better. Moisture and humidity are good for the psoriatic skin.
• If you are lucky enough to be living close to an ocean, try to take regular ocean baths. Again, leave your skin somewhat wet and let the salt crystals dry on your skin.
• Regular daily doses of sunlight taken in short exposures are recommended. Avoid a sunburn which may make psoriasis worse.
• If you have the means, consider buying a tanning, or sun bathing lamp. Get the type which excludes or filters the damaging UV rays. Be careful not to overdo it and burn yourself.
• If your psoriasis is severe ask your doctor to consider PUVA (Psoralen plus ultraviolet radiation) or UVB Photo therapy for you. Although PUVA is extremely effective in treating moderate psoriasis, it's related risks require thorough evaluations prior to initiation of the therapy.
• Cleanse / drain your digestive system regularly to eliminate food residues. There are teas, internal cleansers etc. to accomplish this, available in health food stores and pharmacies. Your personally processed fruit juices are the best solution to balanced intestinal flora. Juice from fresh Pineapple, is the best.
• Discuss the suggestions above with your physician before you try them. Make sure they will not conflict with your current prescription medications. Combinations of medications or treatments may have an adverse affect. Remember, your health is in your hands. You are your boss. 
• Do not diagnose yourself or make your own conclusions. You may have made the wrong one. See always a qualified dermatologist or physician first.
