Home remedies for psoriasis : 

• Sitting in the sun : Expose the affected skin region to the sun directly. Now, some people have the risk of getting sunburn, but sun can be quite helpful in psoriasis. 
• Complete change or makeover in the things that you use in the house : Psoriasis is caused by the immune system, as proposed. One should therefore get rid of any such substance which might be causing the immune system to create such a response. So, get rid of the soap, shampoo, makeup, sunscreen and other things which contain synthetic compounds and get natural substitutes instead. This may be the big difference in treating psoriasis. Our skin is gentle and in some people, many of the common products can cause an allergic reaction. Similarly, try to completely eliminate processed food in diet and go completely natural. That means, boil milk at home, get your own vegetables and fruits that do not have pesticides, or from your garden and cook food at home. It is a complete makeover in lifestyle, but probably it can work in reducing psoriasis for life. 
• Omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids : These two are essential fatty acids. Omega 3 is found in many foods, mainly liver of cod fish. Omega 6 is found in evening primrose. Consult a doctor on how to get the right balance of these two essential fatty acids because it is very important for the body. 
• Try applying neem leaves on the skin : There is no exact cure for psoriasis. Neem is known for its beneficial properties for our skin in India for thousands for years. 
• Topical iodine : It is claimed that topical application of iodine containing cream may help in psoriasis. However, there is no verification. Most of us have common creams which have iodine in them. One should consult a doctor before applying iodine on the skin for psoriasis. In any case, iodine should not be applied on babies and young kids. 
• Go to psoriasis treatment locations in the world : There are some places which are known to help with psoriasis. The soil, geology or quality of water at some places on earth are useful for psoriasis. One of them is Port Safaga in Egypt.
