Noodles and psoriasis.

[Fabio1980]

Since I have a mild case of psoriasis, my dermatologist told me to avoid noodles in general, but especially those sold at 7/11. I used to be a regular consumer. But I ask you: are Seven Eleven noodles really that bad for our health? Thank you.

ones sold in the Sevens are sold in many other stores too.. why did the Doc single out the Seven ?

I think she meant  7/11 as an example, but certainly the ones you buy at Seven Eleven you can buy everywhere.

All ultra-processed food is bad to varying degrees depending on degree of processing.  Cook decent food, or get decent food from other stalls or restaurants.   Fermented food is very good for the physiology & general health - anything that provides food for the bacteria in the gut.  So for noodles go for Khanom Jeen (the fermented - not so easy to find)

Yes they're bad for you, check ingredients, includes palm oil last time I looked

I believe that the doctor was suggesting to stop eating wheat products in general, rather than 'noodles' at '7-Eleven.

Many health benefits to avoiding them, including skin care.
I was amazed at the difference that my body felt when I stopped eating noodles, breads, cakes, etc., made with wheat flour. 

It was an eye-opening change for me.

You're right: in collaboration with a dietitian, they gave me a diet to follow for the next six months, specifically for psoriasis. While they recommended certain foods to see if they could be "bad" for psoriasis, noodles, sweets, bread, and other products were completely banned from the diet.

Keep in mind that what they are actually removing from your diet are starches and sugars. You CAN eat bread that isn't made with wheat flour, just as we do following the Keto lifestyle.

I think you will find even more physical comfort if you get rid of the other starches, too, such as root vegetables. Load up on the green vegetables instead of potatoes and squash.  If you need a replacement for potatoes, look towards mashed cauliflower. With salt and butter, or sour cream, it tastes so very close but without the starch!
