PSORIASIS NUTRITION CLINIC

Personalised Support With a Psoriasis Nutritionist

Tired of dealing with persistent psoriasis symptoms — red, itchy skin, scalp flaking, or inflammation that just won’t calm down — while topical creams only give temporary relief?

Whether you’re struggling with scalp psoriasis, plaque psoriasis, or psoriatic arthritis, it can be frustrating when standard treatments only manage the surface symptoms and overlook what’s happening inside your body.

As a psoriasis nutritionist, I use personalised nutritional therapy with a functional medicine, root-cause approach to uncover what’s triggering your skin inflammation, from gut imbalances and food sensitivities to immune dysfunction, and create a clear, practical plan to help you restore healthy skin from within.

Understanding Psoriasis and Its Root Causes

Psoriasis isn’t just a skin problem, it’s a chronic inflammatory condition often driven by immune dysfunction, gut imbalance, and systemic inflammation.
When the immune system becomes overactive, it speeds up skin cell turnover, causing thick, scaly, and inflamed patches on the skin.

But the real question is: why is your immune system overreacting? That’s where a root-cause, nutrition-focused approach can make all the difference.

Common Root Causes I Help Address

Gut dysbiosis and leaky gut (often linked with psoriasis flares)
Food sensitivities (especially gluten, dairy, alcohol, and nightshades)
Chronic inflammation and oxidative stress
Vitamin D and omega-3 deficiencies
Stress and poor sleep quality
Toxin accumulation and impaired detoxification pathways

By identifying and addressing these underlying factors, we can calm inflammation, restore gut balance, and help your skin heal naturally, from the inside out.

Common Psoriasis Symptoms I Help With

Psoriasis can affect more than just your skin. It’s often a sign of deeper inflammation, nutrient deficiencies, and immune imbalance. Through personalised nutritional therapy, I help clients manage:

✅ Red, itchy, or flaky skin patches
✅ Dry, cracked skin that may bleed or feel sore
✅ Scalp psoriasis and persistent dandruff
✅ Nail changes – pitting, thickening, or discolouration
✅ Joint pain and stiffness (psoriatic arthritis)
✅ Fatigue and low energy linked to chronic inflammation
✅ Digestive issues like bloating or discomfort
✅ Increased sensitivity to stress or certain foods

If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s a signal that your body needs deeper support, not just topical treatment.

Types of Psoriasis You Should Know

While plaque psoriasis is the most common, there are several other types — each with unique triggers and patterns. Understanding your type helps identify the best nutritional and functional approach to calm inflammation and improve skin health.

Plaque Psoriasis

The most common form, causing raised, red patches with silvery-white scales. Often linked with gut imbalance, stress, and inflammation.

Scalp Psoriasis

Affects the scalp or hairline, leading to dryness, flaking, and itching that can resemble dandruff but is more persistent.

Guttate Psoriasis

Characterised by small, dot-like lesions often triggered by infections, illness, or stress. More common in children and young adults.

Inverse Psoriasis

Appears as smooth, shiny red patches in skin folds (such as under the breasts or around the groin). Can worsen with heat, sweat, or friction.

Nail Psoriasis

Causes pitting, thickening, or discolouration of the nails and sometimes detachment from the nail bed.

Psoriatic Arthritis

An inflammatory condition that affects both the skin and joints, leading to stiffness, pain, and swelling.

My Approach to Psoriasis Healing

Every client’s psoriasis story is different — and that’s why a one-size-fits-all plan rarely works.
My approach focuses on identifying your unique triggers and restoring balance step by step, using evidence-based nutritional therapy and functional medicine tools.

During your consultation, we’ll:
» Review your health history, symptoms, and diet in detail
» Identify possible root causes such as gut imbalance, inflammation, or stress
» Discuss lifestyle factors that may worsen or relieve your flares
» Create a practical, personalised nutrition and supplement plan

If needed, I also use functional laboratory testing to guide your plan more precisely. This may include:

GI360 Comprehensive Stool Test – to assess gut bacteria, pathogens, and inflammation
Vitamin D and nutrient testing – to check for deficiencies linked to psoriasis severity
DAO / Histamine Test – for clients with itching or histamine-related flares
Hormone and stress testing – when symptoms worsen around the menstrual cycle or under stress

Each plan is tailored to help you:
» Reduce inflammation and flare frequency
» Support gut repair and detoxification
» Improve energy, mood, and overall skin health

Here’s what the journey usually looks like:

Comprehensive Health Assessment

We start with a deep dive into your psoriasis history, symptoms, diet, lifestyle, and past treatments to understand what may be driving your flares. This helps identify gut, immune, or environmental factors contributing to skin inflammation.

Personalised Goal Setting

Together we clarify your biggest priorities, whether it’s reducing flare frequency, calming skin irritation, improving confidence, or addressing psoriatic arthritis, so your plan fits your real life and goals.

Targeted Functional Testing

Depending on your needs, we may recommend stool testing (GI360), vitamin D and nutrient panels, DAO/histamine testing, or hormone and stress assessments to uncover hidden triggers behind inflammation and immune imbalance.

Root-Cause Nutrition & Lifestyle Strategy

You’ll receive a personalised plan to calm inflammation, repair the gut, and strengthen your immune tolerance. This includes tailored food guidance, anti-inflammatory meal strategies, stress management, and targeted supplements where needed.

Ongoing Support & Progress Tracking

We’ll regularly review your symptoms, test results, and skin progress, making adjustments to keep your plan sustainable, effective, and supportive of long-term healing.

Long-Term Resilience & Flare Prevention

You’ll learn how to maintain healthy skin long-term, reduce flare frequency, and understand your early warning signs, helping you feel confident and in control of your psoriasis naturally.

What My Clients Say

“Before working with Dainora, I felt hopeless about my psoriasis. I’d tried creams, diets, and medications and nothing worked for long. Dainora helped me identify food triggers and support my gut health. Within weeks, my itching and redness started to calm, and now my skin finally feels under control.”

Laura M. / Plaque Psoriasis Client

“My scalp psoriasis was so bad I avoided wearing dark clothes. Dainora ran a stool test and discovered gut inflammation I never knew about. With her nutrition plan and supplement support, my scalp and energy levels improved dramatically — I finally feel like myself again.”

James K. / Scalp Psoriasis & Gut Imbalance

“I’d been dealing with nail psoriasis and joint stiffness for years. Dainora’s approach was different and she looked at my whole health, not just my skin. After following her plan for three months, my nails look healthier, my joints hurt less, and I understand how to manage my triggers.”

Everything You Need to Know Before Working With a Psoriasis Nutritionist

Can nutrition really help with psoriasis?

Yes. Research shows that certain dietary and lifestyle changes can calm inflammation, balance the immune system, and support clearer skin. Many clients see improvement once gut health, nutrient levels, and food triggers are addressed.

How soon can I expect results?

Every case is different, but most clients start noticing improvement in 6–12 weeks. The deeper healing of skin and immune balance can take longer — consistency is key.

Do you recommend any specific diet for psoriasis?

There’s no single “psoriasis diet.” I often use an anti-inflammatory or autoimmune-focused approach (similar to AIP or Paleo) while personalising it based on your gut health, sensitivities, and nutrient needs.

Can I work with you if I’m on psoriasis medication?

Yes. Nutritional therapy can safely complement medical treatment. I’ll make sure your plan supports your current medication and helps minimise side effects when possible.

Do you offer online consultations?

Yes — all consultations are online and available across the UK and Europe. You can work with me from the comfort of your home.

What tests do you usually recommend?

Depending on symptoms, I may suggest GI360 stool testing, vitamin D and nutrient panels, or a DAO/histamine test for itching and inflammation. Each plan is tailored to your individual needs.
