Brief Answer:
Reports suggest that it does!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Tumeric has been reported to help with psoariasis. However, this is not official recognized and certified as such by the drug regulatory agency. I will suggest that you go ahead and try it and see how well you respond to this. If the results are good, then continue with it. If not, we would have at least known that it doesn't help in your case and stop. This drug has no serious recognised side effects and you shouldn't be scared using it.

I wish you well. Feel free to follow up with me of need be.
