August is Psoriasis Awareness Month! Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease that occurs when the growth cycle of skin cells is sped up due to faulty communication from our immune system. Due to the skin cell growth cycle being too fast, dead skin cells build up on the skin’s surface in a patient with psoriasis.
Vitamin A has been used therapeutically to treat acne, psoriasis, and to speed wound healing. A required component in the cells of our eye, Vitamin A helps with healthy vision along with being a potent antioxidant that helps boost the immune system and assists in reproduction and fertility. Two forms of Vitamin A – retinol and retinoic acid help with the expression of genes that are responsible of growth and differentiation of cells.
In doctor’s offices all over the United States, fatigue is the most common complaint by patients. It is probably the most over looked complaint that gets lost in the shuffle of the patient’s main complaint and its prescription. An in-depth look into fatigue includes ruling out many possible causes such as anemia, side effects of medications, eating disorders, insomnia, poor diet, and endocrine imbalances to name a few.

Indications: Sore throat or any inflammation or infection of the throat, neck pain, ear infections, headaches, migraines, nasal congestion, upper respiratory infections, coughs, and sinus infections.
