We could start by eating super anti-oxidant foods to help reduce the inflammation and symptom of psoriasis. They are widely available as organic foods and supplements. They best way to determine if they 
are suitable (do not cause allergies) is by trying them and closely look out for any side effects. This is because we may have different reactions 
to foods as compared to other people. Most organic and certified food 
supplements are safe (check the labels for certification). Choose wisely 
and enjoy these super foods today!
