Psoriasis is a skin condition for a long time which causes red, dry and scaly patches on the skin. These patches develop on the areas like elbows, knees, scalp and back. The skin can feel tight due to psoriasis. Moreover, it can also itch or burn. Many people suffering from psoriasis try creams or medicines but these patches come back often which make psoriasis hard to manage. At Ayurvedguru, we treat psoriasis from the root cause.

Understanding Meaning of Psoriasis in Ayurveda

Psoriasis is known as “Kitibha" in ayurveda which occurs due to the body's natural imbalance. Mainly, Vata and Kapha doshas get out of control in the body and it leads to rough, dry as well as itchy skin.

The main problem of psoriasis comes from the gut. Poor digestion leads to toxins which are known as Ama in ayurveda. These toxins travel in the bloodstream and settle in tissues which cause skin issues. This is the Ayurvedic view of psoriasis.

The Gut-Skin Connection

Ayurveda highlights that gut health affects the skin. Modern research also shows that poor digestion can activate the skin flare-ups.

Digestion fire or Agni is very essential. Strong Agni in the body digests food and absorbs nutrients while weak Agni produces Ama which is sticky as well as heavy and blocks the channels of skin layers in the body. This causes inflammation, dryness and scaling.

So, psoriasis often starts in the gut. Treating the gut is key to healthy skin.

What Weakens Agni?

Many habits weaken Agni in the body such as:

  • Eating cold, heavy, or dry food
  • Skipping your food or having your meal at odd times
  • Eating very much or very less
  • Stress and worry
  • Lack of sleep
  • Lack of exercise

Weak digestion in the body leads to production of Ama and then psoriasis appears on the skin.

What Is Ama?

Ama is a waste in the body which is undigested. It is thick, sticky as well as toxic. After reaching the skin, it causes redness and inflammation, flaky skin, itching and immune confusion.

Therefore, the treatment of psoriasis should start from the gut.
