Psoriasis and weight: Have you seen a connection?

Hi everyone,

Many people living with psoriasis have noticed changes in their skin when their weight shifts, whether through gain or loss. And while it isn’t talked about enough, research suggests there may be a real link between inflammation, metabolism, and skin health.

• Have you noticed your psoriasis improve or worsen with weight changes?
• Have doctors ever discussed this connection with you?
• What lifestyle changes (if any) have helped your skin the most?
