Certain supplements have also been linked to improved symptoms. A clinical review published in Indian Journal of Clinical Dermatology evaluated several studies on how dietary guidelines play a role in psoriasis. In one case, vitamin B12 completely cleared plaques in 32 percent of patients. Psoriasis patients tend to have low levels of vitamin D as well as vitamin B In the same review, various studies found that supplementing with vitamin D also improved psoriasis symptoms either completely or moderately in many cases.

Here are eight foods and beverages that get mentioned often by people as possibly causing their psoriasis flare-ups.
Psoriasis is an inflammatory condition, and junk foods and other highly processed foods tend to be high in saturated and trans fats and refined starches and sugars, all of which can promote inflammation. Another reason to avoid junk foods is that that they are high in calories with little nutritional value, and people with psoriasis often have weight problems.
Red meats contain a polyunsaturated fat called arachidonic acid. You should also avoid sausage, bacon, and other processed meats. Like red meat, dairy products also contain the natural inflammatory arachidonic acid. Egg yolks, too, are high in arachidonic acid, so consider nixing them from your diet. These vegetables contain solanine, a chemical compound that has been shown to trigger pain in some people. Sometimes an allergic reaction can cause psoriasis to flare.
Citrus fruits, such as grapefruit, oranges, lemons, and limes, are a common allergen. If you notice that citrus fruits seem to trigger your symptoms, see if eliminating them from your diet improves your skin. This goes for their derivatives as well, such as lemonade and grapefruit juice. This protein is found in some grass-related grains, including rye, wheat, and barley.
