How it works
Alcohol promotes systemic inflammation, impairs the immune regulation that keeps psoriasis in check and reduces the effectiveness of many psoriasis treatments.
Heavy alcohol use significantly worsens psoriasis and reduces treatment efficacy. Even moderate reduction shows benefit. Alcohol also interacts with methotrexate if used for psoriasis.
Strong epidemiological evidence links alcohol consumption to psoriasis severity. Systematic reviews confirm alcohol reduction improves psoriasis outcomes.

“Some improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.”
