Apples For Psoriasis – Get Your Skin Back

As the cliché saying goes, “an apple a day keeps the doctors away…” couldn’t be more farther from the truth. Apples are the power house of ultimate fruits.

Mankind has been eating, cultivating, and harvesting apples for thousands or years. Thousands of different varieties exist today.

Apples have a long and eventful history. Eaten by humans for over ten thousand years, they are considered one of the healthiest fruits in the world.

There are three main reasons.

One: apples are anti-inflammatory.

Two: apples remove toxins.

Three: apples have dozens of nutrients.

Quick Lesson

Psoriasis is a skin disorder that presents itself with red inflamed skin. It can appear as a rash anywhere on the body and tends to flake off like dandruff. To learn more about skin inflammation called psoriasis click here.

Acute vs chronic.

Short term inflammation or Acute inflammation is known as good inflammation because it is activated when the body is damaged or imperil, such as infection or injury.

Acute inflammation serves to extinguish toxins, bacteria, and other foreign contaminants when it is needed. And it deactivates when it’s no longer needed. It will activate to do it’s job and then it will cease when it has completed it.

Chronic Inflammation or long term inflammation is the complete opposite of acute inflammation. A very bothersome type of inflammation.

Chronic Inflammation is a danger sign because it’s a symptom of something not right, something amiss. It is nasty and red and horribly annoying, it can cause many problems in the body.

It starts fighting with the body’s own systems and doesn’t ever want to stop. Chronic inflammation will continue to be activated because something in the body is making it act this way. Chronic inflammation will cause extreme problems if it is not handled soon.

Apples Fight Inflammation

Apples for psoriasis is perfect for countering chronic inflammation because it’s one of the fruits that actually alkalize the stomach.

Constantly indulging in highly acidic foods will cause organ and skin inflammation eventually.

Apples counter extreme acidity by encouraging PH buffering. This manipulates extreme acidity.

Restoring and tweaking, and finely tuning the proper PH balance thus helping to control body inflammation.

Psoriasis, which is skin inflammation, is usually caused by inflammation of a leaky gut.

There are scores of reasons on why the gut is inflamed and leaky. To learn the main reasons why click here.

Apples also promote gut healing and anti-inflammation by catering to good bacteria. This is true because apples contain pectin, a prebiotic fiber.

Good bacteria, AKA probiotics feed on prebiotics, keeping them well; this in turn is extremely beneficial to gut health.

Apples Have Nutrients

Apples have an outrageous concentration of nutrients that is highly advantageous to the body. A lack of needed nutrients can cause a number of ailments including psoriasis and other skin problems.

Here are some of the qualities that are present in Apples.

Prebiotics: Food for our body’s friendly bacteria.

A Vitamin. Adelle Davis, a 1960’s Nutritionist, explains that inflammatory diseases like psoriasis and eczema are caused by A vitamin deficiency and a “faulty utilization of fat.” She highly recommends, lecithin and the vitamins A, B, C, and E.

Many other sources claim that vitamin A can reverse multiple inflammatory diseases. This includes inflammation of organs, joints, and skin.

B vitamins inside apples can regulate inflammation.

B1 vitamin: also known as thiamine, which is also found in beans and liver. Nerve and other bodily inflammation may arise if deficient.

B2 Vitamin: The US National Library of Medicine says the B2 vitamin or Riboflavin “deficiency induces a pathological pro-inflammatory response.”

B6 vitamin: is also an ingredient that is put into anti-inflammatory medications. These drugs are issued by medical doctors to control inflammatory diseases.

B17 vitamin: A controversial cancer killing vitamin found in certain seeds.

Apricot seeds and apple seeds are the most likely to contain this vitamin.

An extract of this vitamin is called Laetrile. An underground documentary about vitamin B12 named “A World Without Cancer” can be watched on YouTube. Highly informative. I truly recommend it.

This film claims that some doctors that prescribed Vitamin B17 loss their medical license, were incarcerated or worse.

C vitamin: AKA ascorbic acid is a top vitamin on the planet and a common antioxidant in many fruits.

Vitamin C can do the ultimate. Turning inflammation around is indeed an under rated trait. The main attribute of vitamin C is it act’s as an electron giver.

The vitamin C found in apples can not only prevent disease, but it can also reverse disease too. This happens because vitamin C donates electrons to free radicals.

But why donate electrons to the trouble making culprit? Because, by giving electrons to free radicals, free radicals now hold all that is possible for them to carry.

This hinders free radicals from stealing electrons from other places.

E vitamin inside apples control inflammation because of it’s antioxidant properties. Antioxidants stand and guard cells from free radicals and decrease inflammation.

Vitamin E and vitamin C can be considered great allies because they compliment each other when they are both present at the same time. They reduce inflammation by increasing each others attributes. Vitamin E and C both exist in apples making it a super fruit.

K Vitamin. Allows the coagulation of blood which prevents excessive bleeding. Vitamin K also has anti-inflammatory qualities.

While observing data from over 1000 participants in a vitamin K experiment. The case study showed that a decrease in inflammation took place.

Phytonutrients are natural compounds found in vegetables and fruits.

These essential nutrients promote good health and anti-inflammation. They also have antioxidant properties that prevent damage to cells throughout the human body and positive effects on the immune system.

Phytonutrients also have antiviral, antibacterial and anti aging qualities.

Apples have Minerals

If you were to compare vitamins and minerals, the main difference would be vitamins are organic, and minerals are inorganic.

Because vitamins are organic they originate from plants and animals.

Minerals are inorganic and originate from earth and soil but are acquired through animals and plants. Both are natural occurring here on Earth.

Vitamins can be broken down further from their present chemical compound. Heat, air, acid and the reaction to other compounds ensure the chemical break down to occur.

Edible minerals can’t be broken down any further because they exist as an element (simplest form of substance) and not a compound (combination of two or more elements in a well ordered, natural occurring chemical structure).

The essential minerals are typically a few raw elements on the periodic table. Also, known as dietary minerals or dietary elements.

Like a few vitamins, some essential minerals are ideal in just trace amounts of oral consumption. And similar to a few vitamins, some dietary elements are highly beneficial if consumed in a more generous quantity.

Granted, another awesome trait that dietary minerals share with vitamins is the ability to be stored in the body.

Apple’s Remove Toxins

Apples are well-known forelm-bark-powder-bitmoji removing toxins because they have many anti-inflammatory properties including anti-inflammatory vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals.

Apples are perfect for flushing heavy metals, radiation and other harmful toxins in the body.

Think of apples as an internal body scrub. A healthy fruit that cleans the digestive track.

  1. Let food be thy medicine, and medicine be thy food. It is true, we are what we eat. i am currently trying to kick coffee to the side even though I never add sugar or milk. Thank you for further educating me on the thousands of different types and how efficient they are for detoxification and regulation of our organs.

    • “Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food” Yes a wonderful Hippocrates quote, that doctor from the old school days was truly a master of his time. I talk about coffee, milk, sugar in my “Don’t List” article I wrote too. Refined sugar, milk that is not almond milk, and too much coffee can do a number on the skin. You are exactly right. Thanx for the quote.

  2. Hi, Drake, apples are indeed big if one is looking to live a healthy lifestyle. With the wide array of choices, one can definitely find a few apples that they can indulge in. Also, the fact they contain phytonutrients will help them fight off those free radicals and other harmful toxins in the body. It’s also practically a whole food multi-vitamin if one thinks about it, containing three of the four fat-soluble plus an array of B-vitamins. You just can’t go wrong here. 

    • Yes you are exactly right. Apples are indeed “whole food multi-vitamins.” There are so many benefits from all the wonderful nutrients in apples it’s almost mind boggling. Thanks for the insightful comment.

  3. Very informative article! My brother had this condition, he fought it going full vegan and magically it disappeared! I love how you use a bitmoji character! I would love to learn how you did this as it added tons of personality to your article, can you show me how if you don’t mind? I took away a lot from reading your post. What are your favorite apples btw? Mine are Gala and Ambrosia 🙂

    • It’s cool that your brother lost his psoriasis condition. I still eat meat but only 25% of my plate. The rest is vegetables. And fruits I eat alone. I stopped eating red meat focusing more on steamed fish and the occasional chicken, never fried.

      Sure I can show you how to do it. Just PM me via my email provided here and I’ll show you the steps.

      To learn more on how I cured my psoriasis read my Do List and Don’t List.

      Thanx for the feedback

  4. I have psoriasis that mainly shows up on my back and shoulder, my most annoying part is that it is usually very itchy which drives me crazy. Now I also have COPD and when that is inflamed it seems to make everything else worse. Chronic inflammation as the dr says.Lucky me. I have tried apple cider vinigar and it does seem to work a bit, I am wondering should I make this a regular thing and take extra vitamins on top of that? Would love to hear your opinion as my dr doesnt seem to be much help.

    • I’m not a doctor so I can’t give you medical advise. I can tell you how I lost my psoriasis condition a long time ago. I use apple cider vinegar too. I wrote an article about it here. There are so many things To Do and Not To Do that I can’t simple type it all here in a comment reply. For the most part I wrote many articles about psoriasis. It’s all spread out through this bad ass website that I made for people just like you. Just browse around, learn and you will find the light from that annoying itchy skin problem.

      I also wrote a awesome book you might find interesting.  It’s called How to Remedy Psoriasis Naturally.
      Hope all these links help you.

  5. Psoriasis shampoos have done nothing to help my irritated, sketchy, flakey scalp and face; A friend suggested that i eat more apples and create a paste with it to rub the affected part of my body, i followed sheepishly and to be honest, it has helped significantly with the irritated and flakiness, and leaves my hair spotless and gleaming.

    Awesome writeup Drake.

    • That’s crazy! You made a paste out of apples and put it on your scalp and skin? And it helped? That is cool man. I write about how apples for psoriasis, if eaten will help rid psoriasis away but used as a topical solution is very interesting indeed. Thank you for the comment.
