Treat Lichen Planus Naturally

Lichen planus is a common inflammatory disease of the skin and mouth and is classified as an auto-immune disease. This means that white blood cells which usually fight germs begin to attack the normal parts of the skin, mucous membranes, hair, and nails. It is also considered a symptom of hyperkeratosis.

My name is Nanette and I am here to help guide you in relieving this condition with pure and natural remedies. To gain a greater understanding, it is important to note what the disease is not.

As a practicing Herbalogist, many of my clients ask, "How can I identify the symptoms of this disease?"

I tell them that symptoms are characterized by reddish-purple, flat-topped bumps that may be very itchy. Some may have a white lacy appearance. They can be anywhere on the body, but seem to appear on the inside of the wrists and ankles.

The disease can also occur on the lower back, neck, legs, genitals, and in rare cases, the scalp and nails. On the legs, the symptoms are usually much darker in appearance. There may be thick patches especially on the shins. Blisters are rare but can occur.

Now that I've covered some basic information, let's talk about what treatments are best.(Since "natural" is best, learn why the commonly prescribed treatment of hydrocortisone cream can be very harmful to your health.)

1) The first essential advice for treatment is to include nutritional herbal supplements and greens as well as omega 3 oils in your diet. Proper supplementation will help to build the immune system and fortify the body. Further, countless studies show that increasing the consumption of herbs and omega-3 oils improves conditions of dry, rough, red and scaly patches of skin experienced by so many.

2) Next, know that a body overloaded with toxins can result in a number of symptoms. It then becomes significantly important to thoroughly cleanse the bowels by using the right intestinal bowel cleanser that will “peel away” the many layers of toxins, sludge and putrefaction that lines the bowels.

3) Thirdly, wash with a specially formulated mild "non-soap" cleanser , that contains only herbal ingredients that are organically grown and hypo-allergenic.

4) The last, but extremely important step in your treatment is to apply a therapeutic moisturizer that contains the key ingredient urea that is hypo-allergenic, anti-fungal and anti-microbial. Unfortunately, it is difficult at best to find a product in the world of commercially mass produced products that can effectively restore and repair the skin.

That is why it is vitally important to become a "label reader"! You see, vitamin-derived antioxidants from plant sourced ingredients not only make the best ingredients for your "inside", but for your "outside" as well.

Below you will find a link to the natural products I recommend to all my clients that, in my professional evaluation, work BEST for lichen planus.
