Eczema & Psoriasis

Chronic skin conditions are almost always inflammatory — which means they're almost always coming from the inside out, not the outside in. Steroid creams suppress symptoms without addressing cause. This chapter covers the root-cause investigation most dermatologists don't run.

6 takeaways from this chapter.

• The inflammatory biology behind eczema and psoriasis — and why they overlap with gut, autoimmune, and metabolic conditions
• Dietary triggers with strong clinical evidence — and the fashionable triggers that mostly aren't
• The role of gut health and the microbiome in skin presentations
• Why stress is one of the most consistent flare triggers and what to do about it
• Topical and systemic approaches with evidence beyond steroid creams
• Where copper peptides, regenerative peptides, and cellular support fit in skin care

Anyone who's been cycling through steroid creams for years without ever being asked about their gut, diet, or stress. Parents managing their child's eczema wanting to understand root cause. Anyone with psoriasis whose flares track clearly with life stress, alcohol, or dietary patterns.
