5 Ways To Treat Psoriasis


Psoriasis is a famously tricky ailment. It's an autoimmune disorder that results in red, flaky patches on the skin. Unfortunately for sufferers, there is no known cure. However, there are ways to treat psoriasis. They may not succeed in ridding you of the disease, but they can help reduce or alleviate symptoms.

With that in mind, let's take a look at 5 easy ways to treat psoriasis.

5. Humidifier

It's a simple fix, but it can be strikingly effective. Dry air is a real nuisance for psoriasis sufferers. It can lead to outbreaks of flaking, inflamed skin. One way to keep psoriasis under control is to keep some moisture in the air. This is especially important in wintertime.

4. Smelly = bad

We all love scented soaps, perfumes, and colognes. Unfortunately, these can be triggering for psoriasis sufferers, as they tend to dry out the skin. If you must indulge, try choosing options that are specially crafter for 'sensitive skin.'

3. Supplements

Avoiding triggers is key to keeping psoriasis at bay. However, there are active steps you can take as well. One of these is taking supplements. Some (or all) of the following may help: aloe vera, vitamin D, fish oil, milk thistle, and Oregon grape.

2. Cut down on the booze

Everyone enjoys a nice glass of wine after a long day. Sadly, alcohol is linked to psoriasis flare-ups. One way to reduce symptoms is to cut down on alcohol consumption.

1. De-stress

Finally, one of the major triggers for psoriasis is stress. So do whatever you need to do to introduce more relaxation in your life. Take a mental health day, read a book, take up a low-stress hobby. Anything you can do to take a load off your mind.

Why GenZ Can’t Live According To The 30% Housing Rule

For decades, the classic rule of thumb for housing has been simple: spend no more than 30% of your income on rent or a mortgage. But for many Gen Z renters, the rule feels almost laughable. In cities across North America, rent has climbed far faster than wages, and entry-level salaries often collide with record-high housing prices, student loan payments, and rising living costs. The result is that millions of young adults are spending far more than 30% of their income just to keep a roof over their heads.

Worried man with credit card

I closed a credit card and my credit score dropped immediately. How long does this damage last?

Closing a credit card can feel like a clean break, until your credit score updates and suddenly looks worse. That dip is common, and it can show up as soon as the account closure is reported to the credit bureaus and the scoring model recalculates. The good news is that most of the “damage” is not permanent, but the timeline depends on what exactly changed on your credit report.

My partner wants to combine all our finances after moving in together, but I think we should keep things separate. What do experts recommend?

Moving in together can feel like the ultimate “we’re a team” milestone, until the first real financial decision lands on the table. For a lot of couples, that moment is the question of whether to combine everything or keep money separate. Experts generally say there is no single “right” setup, but there are clear best practices that lower stress and conflict.

Coffee Cup

My bank charged me a $35 overdraft fee for a $3 coffee. Are banks really allowed to do that?

It feels like a punchline, but it is a real banking outcome. A small purchase can trigger a much bigger overdraft fee if your account dips below zero at the wrong time. The big question is not whether it is fair. It is whether it is allowed.
