Antioxidants
Are His Cure Hi
Ed: I am from India and I am
51 years old. I have had psoriasis for more than ten years. I would say
that I have only mild psoriasis, 20% coverage; my joints are not affected.
Since I have the patches in the scalp, on the back of my neck, ears,
elbows, body and legs, I find it difficult to face people and at times I
get depressed. It all began as a small patch in the scalp. I
have tried steroid ointments, but they produced only temporary relief.
Sometimes no relief. I am at present on a low concentration of coal tar
ointment freshly prepared by the pharmacist, under the direction of a
Dermatologist. I apply it over the patches at bedtime and wash it off with
soap and water the next day morning. With coal tar ointment, my psoriasis
is under control except for flare ups during times of stress and during
the cold season. I have not taken oral steroids, PUVA, Methotrexate or
Cyclosporine. Recently
I started taking antioxidants. After taking antioxidants for more than one
month, I feel I am getting cured. The
turning point came about a month back. God finally answered my prayers. A
relative of mine, a physician, met me at a function. On seeing me, he
remarked that I have psoriasis. I did not say anything. I am very
secretive about my condition and I tell those who ask me that I have an
allergy. The physician relative of mine suggested that I take one capsule
of ANTOXYL FORTE everyday after breakfast for three months. He went on to
say that Antoxyl Forte is a new allopathic medicine which contained the
right combination of antioxidants and that it is used for the treatment of
psoriasis. The
physician, being my relative, sympathized with me. He gave me not only
free advice but also a free lecture. He talked about free radicals and
antioxidants. This is what I understood:
Free radicals are produced in the body during the process of
oxidation. The free radicals are neutralized or destroyed by antioxidants.
The dietary source of antioxidants is fruits and vegetables. When excess
free radicals are produced in the body, there are not enough antioxidants
to destroy them. The excess free radicals then attack healthy cells and
destroy them. When the excess free radicals attack the healthy cells of
the skin, they cause psoriasis. So, to treat and cure psoriasis, the
patient has to take one capsule of antioxidants every day. This physician
also talked about Glutathione — the MASTER ANTIOXIDANT — and that
Antoxyl Forte helps in the production of Glutathione inside the cell.
Stress, smoking, etc. are factors that lead to excess production of free
radicals in the body. I
have been taking one capsule of Antoxyl Forte daily, after breakfast for
more than a month. I also apply coal tar ointment over the patches at
bedtime and wash it off with soap and water the next morning. I have
suddenly noticed that I have no itching and my patches have almost
disappeared. I feel I am getting cured. After about a month, I intend to
stop applying coal tar ointment, but I will continue to take Antoxyl Forte
forever. It is the wonder drug for me. Antoxyl Forte is manufactured in
India by Tablets(India) Ltd., Chennai, India. I
had only mild psoriasis and so probably that is the reason why
antioxidants are working for me. I am told that antioxidants are harmless
and have no side effects. It is like taking vitamin tablets. So anybody
can take it. The time it takes for a cure may vary with person to person
and the severity of the disease. For me, after one month I felt I was
getting cured. For others antioxidants may have no effect! There is
nothing to lose by taking a course of antioxidants. I hope antioxidants
are the wonder drug for curing psoriasis and that they will help
everybody. -Sebastian K. ***** Ed’s
Response: Thanks for sharing
your success with Antoxyl Forte. None
of my quicky Internet search strategies found anything about Antoxyl
Forte, but that doesn’t surprise. I
found the following definition of glutathione at WebMD:
