Mediterranean Diet May Offer Psoriasis Benefits

Extra virgin olive oil, plant-based foods, and moderate meat consumption may help with psoriasis, according to a recent study published in JAMA Dermatology. The randomized clinical trial found that a 16-week Mediterranean diet reduced psoriasis severity, possibly due to anti-inflammatory benefits. Current psoriasis dietary advice focuses on weight loss for patients who are overweight, but these findings suggest an option for all patients.
