Natural Remedy for Psoriasis
Relieva, a homeopathic product containing Oregon grape extract, reduces skin redness and scaly patches
associated with mild-to-moderate psoriasis, reports Mark A. Stengler, ND. Because it has no side effects, Relieva is
worth trying even for severe psoriasis before moving on to stronger treatments. Oregon grapes contain a alkaloid chemical
that fights cell proliferation, which is what occurs in psoriasis. Relieva now is being studied for eczema, too.
