FAQs

Eczema and Psoriasis are inflammatory skin conditions. The appearance is quite different. Psoriasis is flakier and eczema has a leathery look to it. The main difference with eczema and psoriasis is the immunological response. Eczema sufferers will experience allergic reactions (IgE) compared to psoriasis (IgG) sufferers do.

IgE antibodies (Allergies): Create an immediate response which affects the skin, tissues and breathing, and may lead to anaphylaxis. IgG antibodies (Food Intolerance): Is a response experienced after specific food is consumed which then leads to inflammation. This can take up to 72 hours so the reason for the reaction may be unknown if there are multiple possibilities.

Eczema results from a histamine response, therefore the food recommended is slightly different to that recommended for psoriasis sufferers.

Typically, treatments for both can be the same due to the presence of inflammation in the skin. However, when it comes to treating these conditions internally there is a marked difference as the mechanism behind the disease states are quite different.

When psoriasis presents for the first time it starts with small dots. These dots mayor may not be itchy. As the condition gets worse, the dots become larger and income cases for plaques. These plaques can combine and form large patches on the body. The lesions can be quite red and feel hot.

There is a phenomenon called Koebnerization which indicates any trauma to the skin (such as a small cut or scratch) can lead to the cells in the skin shedding at a much faster rate and causing a psoriasis lesion to form.

The idea of getting rid of psoriasis fast in itself can cause the disease to linger. The stress and angst of trying to clear psoriasis can often fuel this disease. The most effective way to help the skin heal, is to remove the inflammation from your diet and lifestyle while taking a natural medicine that facilitates this process.

There are many subtypes of acne which include whiteheads, blackheads, papules, pustules, cystic and nodules.

Then we also have the areas where these acne lesions present.

When it is on the forehead it usually represents due to stress, dehydration or the hair covering the forehead.

The cheeks are indicative of inflammation in the body, smoking or perhaps having a pillow that needs to be cleaned.

Finally, the chin region is hormonal and a poor diet such as fatty foods and sugar. Here we will find the cystic acne resides mostly.

Acne vs Rosacea

There are many similarities when differentiating between Rosacea and Acne.

Similarities:

- Caused by alcohol, spicy food and stress

- Have redness and acne type lesions on the face

Differences:

- Rosacea tends to have more redness and swelling, while acne will have redness localised to the acne lesion itself.

- Rosacea can present with broken capillaries, while this is not the case for acne

- Rosacea can come and go but acne tends to linger around if left untreated

- Acne can present on the chest, back and other areas of the body, while rosacea only present on the face

The food we eat has a direct impact on the health of our skin.

The dermal layer contains blood vessels. Everything we eat enters the bloodstream from the small intestine and gets delivered throughout the entire body through the vascular system (blood vessels).

The food we eat is broken down to nutrients and are circulated in the blood. Some foods increase inflammation in the body and when we are prone to specific health issues, the inflammation fires up this disease and makes the symptoms associated with this disease worse.

Anyone struggling to manage their acne effectively, I would encourage you to remove all inflammatory food from your diet.

These include sugar, dairy, gluten, red meat and alcohol.

As I mentioned, the blood delivers everything to the skin, including hormones. If hormones are affected by stress, the food we eat, the lack of sleep we have, the emotions we have and so on; these effects will be displayed on your skin.

So keep in mind what you notice impacts your acne and try to either manage it or avoid it. Sometimes stress can not be avoided but our reaction to stress is up to us. Incorporate exercise and meditation in your day to help with minimising the effects of stress on your skin.
