Can A Vitamin Cure Psoriasis?

Dietary supplements encompass vitamins, minerals and herbal products. These usually benefit the body as a whole, but there is no evidence that a particular any particular supplement is a cure for psoriasis. The supplements cited to as being beneficial to psoriasis include red clover, sarsaparilla, milk thistle and burdock. These most likely have no bad side effects if taken in usual doses. People who buy these supplements and others are responsible for safeguarding their own health. There is a risk that certain dietary supplements, even multivitamins, may interfere with prescription medications, and it is a good idea for patients to discuss with their doctor before starting any taking any new supplements.
