How to Manage Psoriasis Flare-Ups During the Colder Seasons
The colder months are just around the corner, bringing the promise of warm, cozy sweaters, bonfires, and hot cocoa. However, for those who struggle with psoriasis, the chilly weather can be a source of concern due to flare-ups. The good news is that there are natural solutions you can incorporate into your health routine. Baar Products is here to introduce you to a natural selection of psoriasis products that help address symptoms from the inside-out. Read on to learn more!
What is Psoriasis?
Psoriasis is described as an autoimmune condition that leads to the rapid growth of skin cells, resulting in thick, red, scaly patches on the skin’s surface. These patches can be itchy and sometimes painful. The condition can affect various areas of the body, including the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back. Psoriasis flare-ups can be triggered by stress, infections, injuries, or certain medications. These symptoms tend to get worse when it gets colder due to the air’s lack of moisture and reduced exposure to sunlight.
Dr. John Pagano, author of Healing Psoriasis, states “What one sees on the outside is the physical evidence of something happening inside the body. One can treat outside, but the disease will keep coming back again and again, month after month, year after year, until the patient has exhausted all available avenues of relief. Is it possible for a victim to be free from a lifetime of pain…? The answer is an unequivocal yes!”
The Intestinal Connection
According to theories advanced by Cayce, the source is found in the intestinal tract. For psoriasis to occur, the walls in certain areas of the intestinal tract must become thin and porous. When this happens, toxic substances that should normally pass through the intestines and eventually be eliminated by the body seep through these walls, enter the lymphatic system and invade the bloodstream, also known as leaky gut. It may take some time, but sooner or later the accumulation of toxins will prove to be more than the (liver and kidney) organs can effectively handle.” Dr. John Pagano, Healing Psoriasis.
How to Manage Winter Flare-Ups with Baar Products
What better place to begin the healing process than by addressing symptoms from the inside-out.
American Saffron Tea
American Saffron (Carthamus tinctorius) is known for its traditional herbal benefits, including its anti-inflammatory and skin-soothing properties. When taken as a soothing cup of tea, American Saffron contains compounds that may help reduce inflammation, which can be beneficial for managing psoriasis flare-ups. Its herbal properties are known to be beneficial as a kidney and liver flush and for its cleansing support of the intestinal tract.*
Slippery Elm Bark Powder
Slippery elm (Ulmus rubra) has a rich history in herbal medicine, particularly in both Native American and traditional Chinese practices. The inner bark is known for its soothing properties, primarily due to its high mucilage content, which can help coat and protect mucous membranes. It is also known for soothing gastrointestinal irritation and providing relief for inflammation.*
Psoriasis Scalp & Body Wash
Our Scalp & Body Wash has been specifically formulated to calm symptoms of psoriasis. Its herbal blend of ingredients is known for helping to relieve redness, flaking and itching while promoting skin recovery. Psoriasis Medicated Scalp & Body Wash can aid in maintaining moisture, helping to alleviate dryness and flaking associated with psoriasis.
Psoriasis Cream
We’ve mentioned that colder months bring dry air, but it can also bring dry skin. Moisturizing is extremely important during the winter. Your skin can suffer a lot without moisture in the air to cling to. Baar’s Psoriasis Cream contains ingredients that help maintain moisture, alleviating dryness and flaking associated with psoriasis.
Consider a Holistic Approach
Dealing with psoriasis can be challenging, and sometimes traditional treatments don’t provide relief. Finding the right products to help alleviate symptoms can feel overwhelming. Fortunately, we provide a Psoriasis Care Kit that features a range of products to help you find what works best for you. This kit features soothing skincare and herbal supplements. It’s a great opportunity to explore options that could lead you toward a psoriasis-free lifestyle.
Other Things to Keep in Mind in Dealing with Psoriasis
Managing psoriasis can be simpler than you might expect. There are several lifestyle changes you can adopt to help reduce the frustration and pain of flare-ups. Staying hydrated and making smart food choices are key. During the winter months, it’s common to stay indoors and stray from a nutritious diet, so try to limit processed foods and drink plenty of water. Additionally, wearing soft, breathable fabrics, taking a warm bath with soothing oils, and using a humidifier in your home can help soothe and hydrate your skin. Always consult a healthcare provider for the best treatment options tailored to your needs.

Baar Products has exactly what you need to feel renewed and protected. Here are some of our top recommendations:
Palma Christi Skin Lotion
As we’ve noted, cold air and dry skin often go together, making it frustrating to manage. That’s why we love Palma Christi Skin Lotion (scented or unscented) for tackling dryness—its ingredients are incredibly nourishing and hydrating.

Not only is castor oil effective for dry skin, but it also works wonders for massage therapy, muscles, joints, and more.
Palma Christi Skin Lotion is designed to be non-greasy, addressing a common complaint about many popular skin lotions. If a lotion feels too greasy, it can take longer to absorb and may simply be uncomfortable to use. With Baar’s Palma Christi Skin Lotion, you can rest assured that you’re getting a formula crafted specifically to moisturize dry skin throughout the season.
Inspirol®, Herbal Breathing
Another common challenge during the fall season is dealing with stuffiness and congestion. As temperatures drop, increased dust, pet hair, and a stuffy atmosphere from spending more time indoors can become an issue. Baar Products offers a great solution through aromatherapy! Our Inspirol essential oil blend is perfect for promoting a sense of clarity and comfort. With its carefully crafted combination of soothing essential oils, this blend can help alleviate seasonal challenges and enhance your overall well-being. Make it an essential part of your fall wellness routine!
Olivae™ Shampoo
Our hair doesn’t escape the challenges of the fall season either! Many people find it difficult to keep their hair and scalp hydrated as the temperatures drop. Baar Products’ Olivae™ Shampoo (8 fl oz. and 16.5 fl oz. ) is the perfect solution—it moisturizes, enhances volume, and adds a beautiful shine to hair while effectively cleansing the scalp.

Iodex
Our Iodex ointments contain 4.7% iodine making them the ideal choice for skin healing. Iodex MS, with Methyl Salicylate, relieves local congestion, targets minor aches and pains, and relieves sore, stiff muscles. So, if you’re enjoying outdoor activities and experience muscle soreness and discomfort, Iodex MS may be the solution for relief.

Say Goodbye to Yellow Nails and Fungal Infections with Toelieva!
About a year ago, I had a conversation with a friend who told me that, as much as she loves summer, she is dreading the onset of warmer weather. You see, she had a fungus growing in and around two of her toenails. Those nails were thick and yellow, to the point where she was embarrassed to take off her shoes in public.
With so many prescription and non-prescription treatments out there, it’s hard to know how to treat this type of fungus. One option for her was to go to her primary care physician, who might prescribe an oral anti-fungal drug. But those drugs can cause side effects like skin rashes or liver damage. Plus, she’d very likely need occasional blood tests to see how she’s doing with the drugs.
On the non-prescription side, much has been written about products containing harsh chemicals that can make toes look and feel worse instead of better.
The Ultimate Goal: Healthy, New Growth from the Nail Bed
“So what can I do about my toenails?” she asked. She knew I developed natural products and thought I might have a solution. I talked to her about diet, staying away from deep-fried foods, and having fresh fruit and vegetables every day, if possible. I suggested she visit a good chiropractor or massage therapist to help with circulation to the lower extremities. She said she’s done most of that and would like something topical.
At that moment, I decided to create Toelieva®, a liquid solution that fights fungal growth on the cuticles and skin around and beneath the toenail or fingernail while creating a beneficial environment for healthy, new growth from the nail bed. I wanted our new product to be 100% natural and safe, and the formula and method of application should be effective.
Why Choose Toelieva?
Summer is here and hot weather requires going outside more so than usual. The last thing you want to worry about is going to the pool or beach and having to hide your toenails because they’re very thick or yellow. Toelieva is a convenient and easy-to-use product for fighting fungus and eliminating those infections that can cause yellow, thick toenails. Here are some other great benefits:
Effective, All-Natural Ingredients
Our new product contains Undecylenic Acid, which scientists and others believe is an essential ingredient for fighting fungus. We provide you with a powerful FDA-established maximum strength of 25%. Another key ingredient, Organic Olive Oil, nourishes the damaged skin around the new nails as they grow and return to normal. Grapefruit Seed Extract acts as a natural moisturizer, exfoliant and relieves swelling.
Easy to Apply
With our brush applicator, you can easily coat the cuticle and skin around the nail (and between the toes, if needed), then massage Toelieva lightly to help with absorption. The best time to apply is right after a shower.
Nourishes Damaged Skin
Toelieva contains olive oil as one of its many ingredients. Olive oil is known for moisturizing and nourishing damaged skin. It can also help to restore rejuvenate older skin and strengthen nails.
Ample Supply to Get You Through Treatment
While affected toes should start to look better within a week or so, total nail restoration can take up to 4-6 months. So, it’s important to be patient and apply Toelieva daily with our large 2 oz. Bottle, you will have plenty of product to last throughout the course of treatment.
Who Should Use Toelieva?
Toelieva is formulated for everyone. This powerful yet gentle formula is created for anyone suffering from nail fungus or having dry, brittle, or yellow nails.
So, How Did My Friend Do with Toelieva?
As one of the first to try Toelieva, I’m happy to report that my friend is ecstatic. She says the skin around her nails and cuticles looked decidedly better after a week of applying it every day. At that time, she went for a pedicure, and when the polish was stripped away after several more weeks of daily applications, her nails appeared to look healthier. The last time I spoke with her, she was headed to the beach for the weekend and not at all concerned about people seeing her toenails.
With Toelieva, you can have healthy-looking toenails without the use of oral antifungal drugs or harsh chemicals. And while getting to the finish line won’t happen overnight, I’m confident that, just like my friend, with slow but steady progress, you can have your nails looking their best.
