Due to its physical manifestations, the condition often leads to social discrimination. The typical psoriasis scales on the skin, often itchy, can make everyday life very difficult for patients and lead to social isolation. Psoriasis is an autoimmune condition which is considered incurable. The main cause is inflammation, a natural reaction of the body to an external attacks such as bacteria, viruses, fungi. In psoriasis, the levels of auxiliary T lymphocytes increase significantly, contributing to the secretion of inflammatory cytokines and the increased proliferation of skin cells.

In complementary medicine, it is assumed that if the immune system is ill, it is worth considering the cause of this state of affairs and addressing it.

Following the discovery of vitamin D receptors throughout the body, its role in the prevention and treatment of chronic diseases is gaining momentum. It is being positioned as the critical aspect in immune system functioning and gut homeostasis too. Vitamin D empowers the immune system against viruses, bacteria, and other microorganisms. Vitamin D is not an optional supplement. It is a non-negotiable cellular necessity, Dr. Mathani noted.
