More and more people across the world suffer from psoriasis and other skin disorders. The incidence of psoriasis in the U.S. is about 2-3% or about 7.5 million adults. It mostly affects individuals between the ages of 15-35, but can occur at any age.

It is considered an auto-immune disease, meaning several factors have added up that were not addressed properly, before it progressed to this state. Some of the factors that contributed, may be a propensity genetically, unhealthy skin cell reproduction, removal or repair, environmental insults, infection or injury to the skin, stress, heavy alcohol consumption and other dietary factors, nutritional deficiencies, other health challenges, especially another auto-immune disorder, certain medications, smoking, unhealthy microbiota in the gut, mucus membranes or the skin itself, and allergies.
