Their Benefits and How to Use Them

Woo woo wellness advice is everywhere, but is there any weight behind alternative treatments for psoriasis? Yes, but not as a first-line of action.

When combined with standard topical and internal medications, some alternative remedies can provide symptom relief.

More research is needed on using essential oils specifically as a treatment for psoriasis, but here’s a look at what you can expect from some popular essential oils when used with traditional medicine.

Just promise us that before you go experimenting on yourself, you’ll consult your doctor.

Set your out-of-office status to ‘frolicking in a lavender field.’ Lavender essential oil, perhaps the most studied of all oils, has been shown to fight certain bacteria, aid relaxation, and soothe inflammation.

All of this is promising for psoriasis relief, though more research is needed to determine if there’s a specific effect on psoriasis.

Lavender’s crowning achievement? Helping people chill — even in a lab setting. When people smell it, their heart rate, blood pressure, and skin temperature goes down.

Since psoriasis flare-ups can be triggered or exacerbated by stress, it makes sense that getting a whiff of these purple blooms could be beneficial.

How to use it:

Lavender lotion

If you know lavender doesn’t irritate your skin, you can try adding a few drops to coconut oil and massaging the mixture on your psoriasis patches to help relieve the itching.

Lavender aromatherapy

There are multiple ways to relieve stress with the scent of lavender.

Use an essential oil diffuser.
Add a few drops of lavender oil to your bath or shower.
Put a fresh lavender plant, or sprig of lavender, next to your bed or on your desk.

Shop for lavender essential oil.

The ultimate multitasker, peppermint can soothe an upset stomach, freshen your breath, and soothe psoriasis. The secret sauce? Menthol — the ingredient behind the cooling effect that can soothe inflamed, burning skin.

How to use it

DIY Peppermint oil itch relief:

Mix 2–3 drops of peppermint oil with a spoonful of carrier oil such as coconut oil, sweet almond oil, or jojoba. Apply to the affected area.
You can also add a few drops of the essential oil to your bath.
For quicker absorption, add 5–7 drops of peppermint oil to one cup of distilled water. Using a spray bottle, spritz your skin with the soothing blend.

As always, patch test your skin to see if you’re allergic, and don’t apply it directly to children, or infants. Don’t apply directly to skin without diluting.

Shop for peppermint essential oil.

How do you take your tea tree oil? We take it extracted from the Australian melaleuca tree and diluted with a carrier oil like coconut or castor oil — this stuff is powerful!

This popular cosmetic and skin care ingredient has well-researched antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects, but it lacks clinical research to confirm its effectiveness for psoriasis.

Approach tea tree oil with extra caution if you:

Are pregnant or breastfeeding
Are taking the antibiotic vancomycin
Have IgA disease, an autoimmune disorder
Have a known allergy to tea tree oil

How to use it

Tea tree salve:

Clean and dry the affected area.
Dilute a couple of drops in a spoonful of carrier oil like coconut, castor, or argan oil.
Gently massage the blend into the skin.
Leave on for several hours.
Wash off to avoid irritation.

Geranium is killing it — bacteria and fungi, that is! This essential oil from this cute flower, commonly found in grandma’s garden, is used to treat acne and is commonly found in facial cleansers and toners.

Geranium oil is also thought to have anti-inflammatory benefits, showing significant potential for new drugs.

Like any other substance, geranium oil can cause allergic reactions in some people, so perform a small patch test once you’ve diluted it, and before using. Otherwise, it’s considered safe for most people. Avoid while pregnant.

How to use it

Geranium oil scalp treatment:

Dilute the geranium oil by adding a few drops to a tablespoon of carrier oil.
Add a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar.
Lather the mixture and gently massage into the scalp.
Let it set for 5 minutes and then rinse.

Shop for geranium essential oil.

We know, the following are not actually essential oils — these are less concentrated, more viscous than EOs, and extracted via different methods.

But these are soothing to the symptoms of psoriasis and can also be used as carrier oils in combination with the EOs. Experiment to see which you love best and then stock in your at-home kit!

Lizzo was onto something with this boss oil. Coconut oil is a favorite for soothing psoriasis and treating a number of other ailments, inside and out. It’s also a great carrier oil for the EOs listed above.

Virgin coconut oil (which is cold-pressed, not heated) is packed with antioxidants and has been shown to have antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties.

Its composition allows the skin to absorb it easily, making it a great moisturizer that also prevents skin infections. People with psoriasis swear by its ability to soften skin plaques and ease the itching caused by scalp psoriasis.

Take note: coconut oil might worsen skin if you happen to be allergic to it, so start slowly and pay attention to the way your healthy skin reacts to it.

How to use it:

Coconut oil deep conditioner

Scoop a few tablespoons of coconut oil into the palm of your hand and smooth it over your scalp, focusing on scaly areas. Sectioning your hair with a comb helps to distribute it evenly over the scalp.
Gently massage the oil into the affected areas.
Wrap your head in a plastic shower cap to contain the moisture.
Leave it on for an hour, or overnight for maximum moisturizing.
Rinse and wash your hair with an anti-dandruff or tar shampoo.

Shop for coconut oil.

The OG of medicinal oils, castor bean seeds have been around for 4,000 years and were used by the Aztecs and ancient Egyptians to treat skin and gut issues.

It’s taken some time for modern science to catch up with that wisdom, but research supports its antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Great qualities, since psoriasis flare-ups are particularly susceptible to infection.

As with any other product you apply to your skin, you should test a small amount to make sure you’re not allergic. Check with your doctor first and avoid using it if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, as it may induce labor.

How to use it:

Castor oil topical treatment

Pick up some pure, organic, cold-pressed castor oil. Read the label to be sure the product isn’t sourced from seeds treated with pesticides, as that can lead to skin irritation.
Using an organic cotton ball (cotton is often treated with pesticides, too!), rub the oil directly onto the psoriasis patches. If that’s a little too oily for you, you can mix it into coconut or olive oil.
The best time to apply castor oil is in the evening, since it doesn’t absorb like lotion and needs time to sit on the surface of the skin.

Shop for castor oil.

Black seed oil, also known as black cumin oil, was thought to be so beneficial in ancient times that King Tut was buried with some, and it even got a shout-out in the Bible.

The seeds and oil from this flowering plant found in Southwest Asia have anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and pain-relieving properties.

Black seed oil is also very moisturizing and can help reduce psoriasis scale thickness. Research is ongoing to determine whether or not black seed oil is beneficial for treating cancer, diabetes, epilepsy, and more.

Don’t try it if you have low blood pressure, diabetes, a bleeding disorder (it slows clotting), or are pregnant or breastfeeding.

How to use it

Black seed oil anti-itch solution:

Apply black seed oil directly to your skin, or dilute it in coconut oil.
Massage gently on the affected areas of your skin.
Black seed oil can also be massaged directly onto your hair or scalp for an intensive moisturizing treatment.

Shop for black seed oil.

The cold-pressed oil from argan fruit contains vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant that protects the body from heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and more.

It also contains a substance called squalene, which helps rehydrate skin, prevent skin damage, reduce inflammation, and stimulate wound healing.

In its pure state, argan oil can be eaten or used topically. But while it may be okay to put culinary oil on your skin, it’s not a great idea to eat something that’s marketed as a cosmetic (the safety standards are not the same).

Argan oil is pretty safe for everyone and mild enough to be applied directly onto the skin undiluted. There’s always the chance you could be allergic though, so perform a patch test it before adding other ingredients.

How to use it

Rockin’ Moroccan scalp treatment:

Apply 2–3 drops of argan oil directly onto the scalp, or enough to cover the affected area.
Gently massage in a circular motion.
Wrap your hair in a shower cap.
Leave it on for an hour or even overnight for extra moisture.
Rinse the oil out with a gentle shampoo.

Shop for pure argan oil.

Some other complementary treatment options to discuss with your doctor include:

Fish oil supplements: People with psoriasis have a higher risk of developing heart disease, so adding some omega-3s to your diet is a heart-healthy idea. The recommended daily intake of omega-3s for women is 1.1 g, and for men it’s 1.6 g.
Vitamin D3 supplements: A routine blood test can determine if you have low levels of vitamin D. Significant associations between low levels of vitamin D and psoriasis have been observed.
Probiotics: People with psoriasis have less gut bacteria diversity than those without the condition. Growing evidence suggests that an imbalance in gut bacteria may cause inflammatory disorders like psoriasis and IBD. Balancing your gut bacteria can better support your immune system and reduce inflammation in your body.

What about diet?

The National Psoriasis Foundation’s medical board regularly publishes dietary recommendations for people with psoriasis. Some dietary recommendations include consuming:

Probiotic-rich food. Such as fermented foods and kefir.
High-fiber foods. To feed the good bacteria in your gut that support your immune system.
Foods high in antioxidants. Like nuts, colorful fruits, and vegetables, which help protect your skin cells and heart.
Meat, carrots, and squash. These are packed with vitamin A to aid cell growth.
Fish, flax, and soy. These have omega-3s to protect the heart and brain.
Anti-inflammatory spices. Like turmeric and ginger
Antimicrobial foods. Like garlic and oregano.

Also, avoid eating foods that might trigger an immune response, such as wheat products or processed foods.

Relax, and your psoriasis might too

Stress can cause psoriasis to flare up, so finding ways to unwind will be most beneficial. Try meditation or acupuncture, which has helped some, or take a relaxing bath with Epsom salt or colloidal oatmeal.

These and other acts of self-care can both soothe existing symptoms and prevent them from worsening.

The Coconut Oil Debate and Psoriasis

iStock

“Coconut oil is pure poison.”

Is that so?

In August, Harvard University professor Karin Michels, delivering a lecture to college students in Germany, declared that coconut oil is one of the worst foods you can eat due to its high saturated fat content. (And what about whole milk and red meat, professor?) The talk, captured on video and shared on YouTube, quickly went viral; it’s since been removed from the video sharing site.

Health nuts decried her statements as inflammatory and misguided. India, “the land of the coconut tree,” asked for a retraction. And I began to eye my tubs of white death — stowed in my bathrooms for topical application and in my kitchen for cooking — with suspicion.

Why I Use Coconut Oil

I have psoriatic arthritis with mild plaque psoriasis and, since my experimentation with coconut oil, only gotten milder, sometimes completely disappearing if the circumstances (good dietary choices, lots of vitamin D, and exercise) are right. Even if I stray from the path of healthy lifestyle interventions, coconut oil softens my spots and reduces itching and redness.

After a tub or shower, I slather on coconut oil with abandon. I buy it at a local discount store — if you ever visit Rhode Island, stop by Ocean State Job Lot for the coconut oil and stay for aisles upon aisles of quirky finds — for less than $5 per tub. And I buy the best quality stuff: cold-pressed, pure extra virgin organic coconut oil. Refined coconut oil, while odorless and tasteless, is treated with heat and sent through a bleaching clay, which can kill off beneficial proteins and minerals.

I was inspired to try extra virgin coconut oil after perusing a message board with moisture-locking alternatives to petroleum jelly, another swear-by solution for people with psoriasis. My mom is a big proponent of the petroleum jelly and plastic wrap method, however I found the process to be cumbersome and inefficient, since my lesions are small and sporadically distributed. I learned that coconut oil was easy to apply; it melted in my hands and I could slick it on without any sticky residue. I also became accustomed to smelling like a pina colada – a feat for a person who, before psoriasis, avoided coconuts at all costs. Now, I love it everywhere: on my skin, in my hair, sautéed with vegetables, in my granola, and in soups.

Research on Coconut Oil’s Benefits

After officially declaring myself a coconut convert — I’ve got a badge and everything — I had to figure out why it works for me. And others. While I did not find published research papers on coconut oil and psoriasis, I did discover one study that looked at the anti inflammatory and skin barrier repair qualities of various common oils.

Since psoriasis is an inflammatory disease, I figured this was a good place to start. The paper, published in January of 2018 in the International Journal of Molecular Sciences, compared coconut oil with the several other plant oils. Only coconut oil had positive skin barrier, anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and wound healing effects across the board. Coconut oil’s oft-compared kitchen cousin, olive oil, also clocked many benefits but skin barrier repair is not one of them.

In light of the so-called toxicity concern of ingesting coconut oil, I also sought research on its health implications. A randomized trial comparing coconut oil, olive oil and butter found that, although coconut oil and butter are both saturated fats, coconut oil — like the monosaturated olive oil — did not raise the bad cholesterol, LDL-C, while butter did. Different fats, different fatty acids, it seems.

And, finally, the study of my coconut oil dreams: Researcher Dr. Jose Scher, out of New York University, is seeking to test the benefits of oral coconut oil for people with psoriatic disease. Scher, a leader in the field of autoimmune disease and microbe research, is conducting a clinical trial to assess whether oral pure extra virgin coconut oil, delivered to participants via a 1,000 milligram supplement four times a day, improves disease activity and T-regulatory cell counts for people with psoriasis who are not currently taking other medications. Both the psoriasis group and the healthy control group will take the coconut oil supplement for six weeks, then a non-coconut supplement for three additional weeks.

In an email interview with HealthCentral, New York University researcher Luz Alvarado tells me the proof-of-principal study is bolstered by preliminary data on oral coconut oil’s effectiveness with animal models of psoriasis as well as some prior data on a small number of healthy subjects.

The trial is expected to wrap up in 2020, but I won’t be waiting for the results. I’ll run through a dozen more tubs of coconut oil, both in the bath and the kitchen. I won’t be eating it by the spoonful, to be sure, but a turmeric coconut curry with sautéed vegetables sounds pretty tasty right about now.

Coconut Oil for Psoriasis – Sönd

Psoriasis is a skin condition and autoimmune disease, which typically manifests through the appearance of red or pink scaly patches on the skin. Most commonly, this will affect the elbows, forearms, back, knees and scalp, although it can also present in many other locations of the body. The patches will often be itchy and sometimes painful too.

There are five main types of psoriasis, but plaque psoriasis accounts for around 90 percent of all cases. With plaque psoriasis, the patches on the skin often have a white or silver centre and this will typically have a scaly texture.

People with psoriasis experience it in different ways and although the severity of the condition and the location of the patches can vary significantly, most sufferers seek treatment methods that can minimise its symptoms and keep the condition under control, with these treatments ranging from medication to natural remedies.

Psoriasis Causes and Treatments

Psoriasis occurs when the epidermal layer of the skin grows too rapidly. Essentially, this results in skin cells being replaced too frequently and cells then build up, resulting in dry skin patches, which flake. The precise reason why this occurs is not yet known, but it is thought to be linked to a problem with the body’s immune system.

The underlying causes of psoriasis are also not fully understood, but it is generally accepted that there is a strong genetic component. Meanwhile, lifestyle factors can also contribute to the condition developing or worsening, with examples including stress, changes in climate and excessive alcohol consumption.

Although there is no known cure for the condition, there are a number of treatment options available. The purpose behind treatment is to control the condition, limit the severity of its symptoms, reduce inflammation, itchiness and soreness, and correct immune response.

Treatment can also greatly improve self esteem and mood. Topical treatments are generally utilised for mild forms of the disease, while light therapy may be used if the condition does not respond. In the most severe cases, oral or injectable treatments may be used. In all cases, treatment can also be supported with some natural remedies, which can help to improve psoriasis symptoms.

Coconut Oil and Psoriasis

When it comes to natural remedies that can help to manage psoriasis symptoms, coconut oil is one of the best known and most readily available. As the name suggests, coconut oil is an oil extracted from the fruit of a coconut. It is edible, although has high saturated fat content, but can also be applied topically to the skin.

Utilised in this way, coconut oil serves to hold in moisture, stop the growth of some bacteria and reduce redness and swelling of the skin. It is, therefore, an effective natural remedy for dry skin, scaling and itching, all of which are associated with psoriasis as a condition. Moreover, it can be used to help loosen psoriasis scales.

In addition, coconut oil is often used in personal grooming, especially on the hair and nails. For those with scalp psoriasis, it is an easy transition to use the product as a natural treatment. Indeed, the coconut oil can help to remove some of the flakes and restore moisture to the scalp, while simultaneously improving the hair.

With that said, while coconut oil is a useful natural remedy for psoriasis symptoms and can have a role to play in treating or managing the condition, it should be used in conjunction with other topical treatments and home remedies, rather than as a single solution. Coconut oil should not be used in place of prescribed treatments.

Other Natural Remedies for Psoriasis

While coconut oil is one of the best known and most effective natural remedies for psoriasis sufferers, there are a number of other options which are worthy of consideration as well. The first of these is light exposure, although time spent in the sun should be managed carefully to avoid damage caused by UV rays.

Olive Oil for Psoriasis

Olive oil, applied topically, can help to increase skin moisture, reduce inflammation and soften dead skin, making it easier to remove. Similarly, apple cider vinegar and aloe vera both have a useful role in treating psoriasis, helping to soothe the skin and reduce itching. Apple cider vinegar should be diluted and should not be left on the skin for too long, due to its acidity, which can lead to side effects like irritation and the formation of more dry skin.

Salts for Psoriasis

Both epsom salts and dead sea salts can be added to bathwater in order to create salt water soaks. Although the primary use of salts in this context is to provide relief from some of the more problematic symptoms, such as itching, soreness, irritation and inflammation, they can also help to simplify scale removal.

Finally, research has suggested that diet can also have a role to play in treating psoriasis. In particular, multiple studies have highlighted potential benefits from taking fish oil supplements that are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Moreover, limited research has established a link between coeliac disease, itchy skin and psoriasis and some studies have suggested that the severity of symptoms can be reduced by limiting gluten intake.

Can Coconut Oil Help Treat Psoriasis?

Psoriasis is an autoimmune disease that causes a person to develop scaly patches, also known as plaques, on their skin. Psoriasis symptoms can include silvery scales and itchy, red patches.

The patches can appear on many parts of the body, including elbows, knees, scalp, lower back, and face. Some people also develop scaly patches on the soles of their feet and on the palms of their hands. The patches can be painful, itchy, and sometimes embarrassing.

What causes psoriasis?psoriasis on the elbow

Psoriasis is a common autoimmune disease that causes skin cells to grow faster than normal.

Psoriasis develops when the immune system stops working normally and instructs the body to grow skin cells faster than usual. This means that the skin cells grow in a matter of days instead of weeks. The body does not shed the skin cells as it normally would. Instead, the cells start to build up on the skin, which causes the plaques to develop.

Psoriasis is a chronic condition that is normally passed on through families, but it is not contagious.

Psoriasis usually affects the skin, but some people have psoriatic arthritis. Symptoms for this include swollen joints and pitted, discolored nails.

A person with psoriatic arthritis may also experience stiffness. Although this stiffness is usually less severe than osteoarthritis, it can be very painful. People with psoriasis have a 30 percent chance of developing psoriatic arthritis.

There is no cure for psoriasis, but there are treatments available to control the symptoms.

What is coconut oil?

According to Harvard University, coconut oil is gaining popularity both as a topical treatment and as a cooking oil. The flavor makes it suitable as an ingredient for baked goods and other dishes. It is used, for example, in Thai food.

Coconut oil is composed of 90 percent saturated fat. This is a much higher fat content than butter, lard, or beef fat, but coconut oil helps to increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, or “good” cholesterol. However, coconut oil can also increase low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, or “bad” cholesterol.

Topical coconut oil can also be used as a beauty treatment in a number of ways. These include:

Reducing hair frizziness

Reducing stretch marks

Moisturizing the skin

Removing makeup

When applied to the skin, coconut oil can reduce skin inflammation. It can also help to relieve skin dryness because it reduces the amount of water lost from the skin.

Fatty acids also have skin-soothing benefits for treating psoriasis. Coconut oil might help to soften the skin because it contains the fatty acids lauric, capric, and caprylic acids.

Lauric acid also has antimicrobial activity, which helps to reduce the risk of skin infections and irritation.

Coconut oil as a treatment for psoriasis

When a person has psoriasis, the itchy and scaly plaques can be very dry.

Coconut oil and a coconut

Coconut oil may be used in cooking and as a beauty treatment.

When using topical medications, some people may find their skin becomes even drier. As a result, doctors will often recommend that individuals apply moisturizers with an ointment-like base to reduce dryness, according to the Mayo Clinic.

Coconut oil is an example of a moisturizing treatment for the skin, and applying it can help to reduce very dry skin, particularly in the winter. Coconut oil is available at most health food stores, either as a single oil or incorporated into lotions and ointments.

If a person has scalp plaques, the National Psoriasis Foundation recommend massaging the oil into the scalp. This can help to remove the plaques, as well as soften the scalp.

The Foundation also recommend adding coconut oil to a bath to soothe the skin as an alternative to traditional oatmeal baths.

The bath water should not be very hot. It is important to pat the skin dry and not rub it. A person with psoriasis can apply coconut oil to the skin immediately after taking a bath. Applying it two to three times a day gives the best results.

Mixing coconut oil with aloe vera can give it additional skin-softening properties.

Despite this anecdotal evidence, there is limited research on the effectiveness of coconut oil as a specific treatment for psoriasis.

The Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database point out that there is insufficient evidence to prove that coconut oil is effective in treating psoriasis.

Researchers have studied the application of the treatment before using ultraviolet light therapy, but the results were inconclusive.

Considerations for coconut oil

When applied topically, coconut oil is not associated with many adverse side effects, but it is rarely a sole treatment for psoriasis. It is normally used as a moisturizing therapy, alongside other treatments.

It is possible that a person could have an allergic reaction to coconut oil. An allergic reaction would cause additional redness, itching, and warmth at the affected skin site.

It is also possible that coconut oil may not work to reduce the symptoms of psoriasis. In this instance, a person may need to try other topical, moisturizing treatments to relieve the symptoms.

Other health benefits of coconut oilLight therapy

Light therapy may be used to treat psoriasis. This treatment can include natural sunlight and artificial light.

The Natural Medicines Comprehensive Database rate coconut oil as “possibly effective” for the treatment of eczema, another skin condition that causes a dry, itchy rash.

It has been suggested, but not proven, that coconut oil can be used to treat a number of other health conditions. These include:

Chest pain

Chronic fatigue

Diabetes

Diarrhea

High cholesterol

Irritable bowel syndrome

Thyroid conditions

However, there is not enough evidence to prove that coconut oil is effective in treating any of these conditions.

Other psoriasis treatments

The course of treatment a doctor recommends depends upon the type and severity of the disease. Treatments for psoriasis can include topical ointments, oral medications, and light therapy.

Light therapy

Light therapy involves exposing the skin to the sun or artificial ultraviolet lights. Exposure to light can cause the T cells in the skin that cause excess growth of skin cells to die. This slows the spread of psoriasis as well as inflammation from the condition.

Oral medications

A variety of oral medications are available on prescription. Examples include methotrexate, cyclosporine, or immune-modulating medications like infliximab (Remicade) or adalimumab (Humira).

Topical treatments

Topical skin treatments may be combined with light therapy, oral medications, or both. Examples include topical corticosteroids, retinoids, or calcineurin inhibitors like tacrolimus (Progra) or pimecrolimus (Elidel).

A person with psoriasis may also use salicylic acid, coal tar, and moisturizers to reduce the itching effects of dryness and scaling.

Psoriasis can also be affected by external events and conditions. Examples include:

Taking medications that result in inflammation

Infections

Stress

Weather changes that cause the skin to dry

Alternative treatments for psoriasis can also include the following:

Aloe vera cream or ointment

Fish oil: The Mayo Clinic recommend taking up to 3 grams a day to potentially reduce inflammation associated with psoriasis

Oregon grape or barberry ointments

It is important to talk to a doctor before beginning any alternative treatments for psoriasis, to ensure that these treatments will not interfere with any prescription creams.

The surprising benefits of coconut oil in skin therapy

From the earliest recorded histories, botanical oils have been used as topical treatments for the skin.¹ The coconut tree (Cocos nucifera), a member of the palm family, is largely cultivated for its nutritional, cosmetic, and medicinal values, while its oil, derived from the coconut fruit, has long been recognized to be beneficial to the skin.² Indeed, many cultures have ancient traditions utilizing it for medicinal preparations.³

READ: Tea tree oil: What can it do for your patients?

While the number of high-quality clinical studies on topically applied coconut oil is low, some compelling evidence is available. Notably, there seems to be renewed interest in coconut and other natural oils, with topics as far-flung as using coconut oil as a sunscreen (spoiler: it didn’t work very well!).⁴

Many studies specifically use virgin coconut oil (VCO). VCO is generally defined as coconut oil being obtained through mechanical or natural means, which do not lead to alteration of the oil, and where the oil has not undergone chemical refining, bleaching or deodorizing. This is in contrast to methods that use undesirable solvents such as hexane to extract the oil.⁵

Promising properties

Coconut oil is relatively high in medium-chain fatty acids, making it somewhat unique and granting it properties that may be useful in the treatment of a number of conditions including obesity, dyslipidemia, diabetes and hypertension.²

INTERESTING: What we know today about applying oils to newborn skin

More relevant to the skin, however, it has been shown to be a capable moisturizer. A randomized double-blind study pitted virgin coconut oil against mineral oil in 34 patients with mild-to-moderate xerosis. In the perhaps surprising conclusion, coconut oil was found to be equal to (with a trend toward being superior to) mineral oil as an emollient, resulting in significant skin hydration and increased surface lipid levels, with equal safety.⁶

Supporting these data, and similar to the findings with sunflower seed oil, VCO has been shown to improve barrier function in low-birth-weight babies.^{7, 8} There is a strong suggestion that by strengthening the skin barrier in these at-risk infants, morbidity and mortality due to sepsis can be reduced.

Coconut oil has also been shown to possess another important property relevant to dermatology: It can decrease staphylococcal colonization on the skin. In a randomized controlled trial, coconut oil was found to clear an impressive 95% of staphyoloccal colonization in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD).⁹ This is extremely provocative in a time when we are all increasingly concerned about the role of bacteria in AD¹⁰, and simultaneously worried about increasing bacterial resistance.¹¹ A safe and inexpensive agent for decolonizing the skin could be of tremendous clinical benefit and this line must continue to be researched.

ASLO READ: Skin barrier benefits of sunflower seed oils

The barrier repair and antibacterial properties of coconut oil seem to pan out when put to a more clinical test. In a randomized trial of 117 patients with AD, mean SCORAD decreased by 68.23% in the VCO group compared to only 38.13% in the mineral oil group (P < 0.001) at 8 weeks.¹² There is no doubt that further studies are warranted in AD to best determine a role for coconut oil.

NEXT: The cons with coconut

The cons with coconut

Like many other botanicals, however, coconut oil is not without some downsides. Specifically, there are a number of coconut-derived compounds present in cosmetics, some of which are not infrequent causes of allergic contact dermatitis. Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB) is a widely used surfactant that debuted in 1976 as the “No More Tears” ingredient in children’s shampoos [Jacob 2008]. However, it has the dubious distinction of being the North American Contact Dermatitis Group’s allergen of the year for 2004, and is thought to have a contact sensitization prevalence is estimated at between 3.0 and 7.2%.¹³

CHECK OUT: Honey’s use in skin therapy

Counseling for patients with known allergy to CAPB can be challenging because the cross-reactivity of CAPB with other coconut-derived surfactants and coconut oil itself is largely unknown. One randomized study of 12 patients with known CAPB allergy and 10 control patients examined 11 coconut-derived surfactants, as well as coconut oil cross-reactivity. Remarkably, not a single patient in the study reacted to coconut oil, and only three of the 12 patients with previous reactions to CAPB reacted on retesting. All of these reactions were doubtful. This study suggested that reactions to CAPB may represent irritant dermatitis as opposed to true allergic reactions, and that the risk of reacting to coconut oil itself is likely very low.¹⁴

Coconut oil has already proven itself useful and important in dermatology with a long history of use dating back to ancient times, to widespread use as a raw material for cosmetic derivatives. With powerful emollient properties and exciting antibacterial effects, this natural oil will likely continue to captivate researchers and clinicians alike. Coconut oil may serve us in as yet unimagined ways.

What is the mechanism of its action?

One of the basic principles of dealing with dry, itchy, and sometimes painful psoriatic lesions on the skin is moisturizing and nourishing. Natural coconut oil perfectly copes not only with these, but also with many other tasks, it is not without reason that it has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for the treatment of many skin problems for a long time.

Here are the main factors that explain the unique healing effects of coconut oil in psoriasis:

1. It contains medium chain fatty acids most suitable for our skin. This allows coconut oil to be absorbed better than other natural or synthetic oils into the upper layer of the epidermis, providing the necessary hydration, preventing dry, itchy lesions;

2. Saturated fatty acids help to restore the balance of the body’s own fatty acids, which play an essential role in the fight against pathogenic microorganisms, as well as have a wide spectrum of antiviral and antibacterial action.Thus, irritation and inflammation of psoriatic foci is reduced;

3. Unlike most oils, as well as cosmetics based on them, it does not block pores and, as a result, does not lead to the appearance of acne, blackheads. In addition, studies have shown that even the most sensitive skin does not have allergic reactions to it;

4. Coconuts are rich in the plant hormone kinetin, a powerful antioxidant that can reduce the harmful effects of free radicals on the skin.Kinetin regulates the activity of epidermal cells, stimulates collagen production. Thanks to this hormone, the skin restores water balance and retains the ability to retain moisture;

5. The oil contains an antiseptic agent capable of resisting many bacterial, fungal, viral infections that can provoke inflammation in the deep layers of the epidermis and lead to exacerbation of psoriasis.

6. Lauric, caprylic, capric acids, which are part of the composition, support the immune system of the body, and as you know, one of the reasons for the development of psoriatic manifestations doctors call weakened immunity.

Use of coconut oil to treat psoriasis

Method No. 1, pure use

Coconut oil for psoriasis can be used in its pure form, it is the best of natural oils to moisturize the skin, reduce its dryness, flaking.

Application:

1. Heat the required amount of the product in a small container in a water bath to body temperature;

2. Apply the product to psoriatic plaques with gentle movements, massage for a minute and leave it on the skin, without wiping, for several hours or overnight;

3.The procedure is repeated 2-3 times a day. As soon as the skin dries up and tightens, you can moisturize it again;

4. The most effective result is achieved when the oil is applied after a shower or bath to steamed, moisturized skin;

5. Using coconut oil for psoriasis of the scalp, wrap the head with a warm towel and leave it overnight.

Important! When applying the product to the body or scalp, do not pull off psoriatic scales, they should naturally come off. Otherwise, you run the risk of infection and exacerbation of skin irritation.

Method No. 2, with tea tree oil

This method is most effective in treating scalp psoriasis, as tea tree has strong antifungal and antibacterial properties.

Application:

1. Combine 5-10 drops of tea tree oil and 2-3 tablespoons of coconut oil, mix thoroughly until smooth;

2.Apply the composition to dry scalp before going to bed and leave overnight. The head can be wrapped in a towel so as not to stain the bedding;

3. In the morning, wash your hair with a mild shampoo, taking care not to damage the psoriatic plaques;

4. Add a few drops of soothing peppermint extract to the oil mixture.

These regular treatments will help control flare-ups of scalp psoriasis and prolong periods of remission.

Method number 3, with aloe vera

Aloe juice promotes deep penetration of the composition into the skin, enhances its moisturizing and antibacterial properties.

Application:

1. Combine 100 ml of coconut oil with 50 ml of fresh aloe juice, mix thoroughly. At this stage, you can add a few drops of peppermint extract, lavender, liquid vitamin E to the mixture;

2. Let the mixture stand for several hours;

3.Apply the product to the affected areas and leave for several hours, preferably overnight. Repeat the procedure daily;

4. Store the unused portion of the mixture in the refrigerator, and before use, warm the required amount to a comfortable room temperature.

A few good tips in the end:

1. Coconut oil used for psoriasis should be clean, free of cosmetic and perfumery impurities, preferably cold pressed. Such a product is ideally transparent, with a pleasant natural aroma; when cooled below 25 degrees, it hardens and becomes white.You can buy it in specialized stores or from manufacturers in Asia.

Important! Yellow color is a sign that the product is not sufficiently refined.

2. Treatment of psoriasis with coconut oil should be carried out in combination with the main therapy prescribed by the attending physician and with his approval. Other means of dealing with the disease also play an important role: do not forget to feed the body with natural ultraviolet light , avoid stress, strengthen and support the immune system.

3. It is useful not only to use the product for the skin, but also to eat it. The inclusion of two tablespoons of natural coconut oil in the diet per day saturates the body from the inside with fatty acids, helps metabolism, and reduces the increased concentration of insulin in the blood plasma.

4. If treatment has not resulted in any relief of symptoms, be sure to consult your doctor for additional therapy.

Psoriasis and everything about it (@psort_art)

Uses of oils to treat psoriasis

Essential oils are used in aromatherapy and other alternative treatments for a wide range of health problems, including skin conditions such as psoriasis. Relatively little research has focused on essential oils for treating psoriasis.

✅ Coconut oil is not considered an essential oil. But it has anti-inflammatory properties that can help relieve psoriasis pain.Because of this, it is often recommended for the treatment of scalp psoriasis. The oil moisturizes the skin and scales.
When used alone, coconut oil usually does not cause side effects. The oil is commonly used as a culinary ingredient and is safe to consume.

You can use coconut oil in several ways. Try consuming up to two tablespoons of virgin coconut oil daily. The lauric acid content inside can block the entry of bacteria and viruses into your body.You can also apply coconut oil to your skin. It may be more effective if you apply it directly to your skin after bathing.

If you experience pain, itching, or other unusual symptoms after using coconut oil, stop using it and talk to your doctor.

✅ Tea Tree Oil comes from the leaves of a plant native to Australia. The oil is said to have antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties.May also support healthy immune function.

If you scratch an area affected by psoriasis, try applying tea tree oil to it. It can help prevent infection and relieve inflammation. However, do not use too much of this powerful oil, as it can dry out your skin and make the situation worse.

There are no scientific studies to confirm or disprove the effectiveness of tea tree oil for psoriasis. Possible additional skin irritation or allergic reaction.To determine if you have an allergy, you should check a small area of your skin before using the oil over a large area.

Some people find relief by using store-bought products that contain tea tree oil. You can find this ingredient in everything from shampoos to soaps and lotions.

✅ Castor oil is not an essential oil, but it can be used as an essential oil application vehicle. You can add essential oils to your castor oil base before applying.

This natural emollient also softens the skin. According to anecdotal evidence, cold-pressed castor oil can help speed healing and moisturize dry, flaky skin with daily use.

It is also believed that applying castor oil directly to the skin can help flush out toxins. It can improve immune function by increasing the number of disease-fighting lymphocytes.

Castor oil sold in stores can be chemically processed or obtained from seeds that have been sprayed with pesticides.You must read labels carefully and act slowly to avoid side effects such as skin irritation. You should not use this oil if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

90,000 Coconut oil for psoriasis | Health and healthy lifestyle

Redness, dry spots, itching and pain – these are the constant companions of patients with psoriasis.In severe cases, scaly plaques cover the entire body and cause mental and physical discomfort to patients. The exact causes of this disease have not yet been clarified; official medicine considers psoriasis incurable. Coconut oil helps relieve psoriasis symptoms, improve skin condition and achieve remission.

Psoriasis belongs to chronic inflammatory skin diseases and in most cases is characterized by an undulating course.The periods of remission are followed by periods of exacerbation. Most often, rashes appear on the knees, elbows, buttocks and scalp. The predisposition to psoriasis is hereditary . According to some studies, the likelihood of psoriasis in people whose both parents also suffered from the disease rises to 75%. If only one of the parents was sick, the probability is about 25%.

Psoriasis is often accompanied by severe itching , but damage to the skin during scratching can lead to a further exacerbation of the disease.If an infection gets into the wounds, inflammation joins the psoriasis. Therefore, it is so important first of all to relieve itching. Coconut oil, especially chilled coconut oil, does the job well. It contains many valuable substances, primarily fatty acids, which moisturize the skin and penetrate deep into the cells of the epidermis, nourishing and strengthening them. When applied topically, coconut oil eliminates flaking and removes dryness , and also accelerates skin regeneration. In addition, coconut oil has antibacterial, antifungal and antiviral properties and is effective in reducing inflammation.The oil has a pleasant consistency, melts on the skin and is well absorbed. Some patients report that significantly improves after the first application. Clinical studies prove that coconut oil also helps atopic dermatitis and eczema.

Apply organic coconut oil to the affected area several times a day and let it absorb.
If possible, rub coconut oil onto damp skin after showering.
For a truly effective psoriasis treatment, only Cold Pressed Organic Coconut Oil should be used.
Coconut oil can also be used to care for healthy skin. It is well absorbed, smells good and restores firmness and elasticity to the skin.

Coconut oil for scalp psoriasis

If you suffer from psoriasis of the scalp, use coconut oil as a hair mask.

Melt the coconut oil in a water bath and cool slightly.
Using a cotton swab, massage the oil vigorously into the scalp for several minutes.
Use a fine-toothed comb to access the affected areas, parting the hair with a parting.
Put on a shower cap or cling film and wrap a towel around your head. The extra warmth will allow the scalp to better absorb the nutrients from the oil.
Let the mask work for 1-2 hours to soften the crust. You can also leave the mask on overnight.
Gently comb out the flakes, keeping the comb almost parallel to the surface to be treated. Don’t brush too vigorously to avoid damaging your skin.
