Drinking Beer Several Times A Week Can Lead To Psoriasis In Women

Drinking Beer Several Times A Week Can Lead To Psoriasis In WomenWomen who drink beer several times a week might be at higher risk for developing psoriasis, according to a new study released recently in the Archives of Dermatology.
Researchers looked at drinking habits among 83,000 women age 27 to 44 who were part of the Nurses’ Health Study II. From that group, they analyzed 1,069 cases of psoriasis that occurred in a 14-year follow-up period.
Women who had an average 2.3 drinks or more per week had a 72% greater risk of having psoriasis than women who didn’t drink. But when various types of alcohol were assessed, there was a higher risk for the disease among women who drank regular beer. Other alcoholic beverages did not increase the risk of psoriasis in this study.
Women who drank at least five regular beers a week were 1.8 times more apt to contract psoriasis than women who did not drink.
Why does drinking beer increase the risk of psoriasis?
Researchers believe the stronger link may have to do with the fact that beer uses starch for fermentation–usually barley. Wine uses fruit, and although liquors such as vodka use starch for fermentation, typically that starch has been separated from the liquor during the distillation process.
Barley contains gluten, which may be linked with psoriasis, since those with the disease may have a dormant gluten sensitivity. Light beer’s lower grain content might explain the fact that it wasn’t associated with psoriasis. This research confirms previous research which indicated that gluten-free diet may improve psoriasis in patients who are sensitive to gluten.
In the study, the authors noted that women who have a high risk of developing psoriasis might think about not knocking back too many regular beers per week.

1 in 12 Women Will Have Auto Immune to Disease

1 in 12 Women Will Have Auto Immune to DiseaseOne in 12 women and one in 20 men in the U.S. will develop some sort of autoimmune disease in their lifetime, according to new estimates. Inflammatory autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), are relatively common conditions, especially among adults aged 50 and older. Researchers say the risk of developing an autoimmune disease depends on a number of factors, including age and gender, but until now there hasn’t been an easy-to-understand average risk over a person’s lifetime for adults in the U.S.

The results suggest that one in 28 women (3.6%) and one in 59 (1.7%) of men will develop rheumatoid arthritis, the most common autoimmune disease, in their lifetime. The second most common autoimmune disorder in the study was polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) with a lifetime risk of 2.4% for women and 1.7% for men.

“We estimated the lifetime risk for rheumatic disease for both sexes, something that had not been done before,” researcher Cynthia Crowson, a biostastician at the Mayo Clinic, says in a news release. “Prevalence and incidence rates existed, but prevalence figures underestimate individual risk and incidence rates express only a yearly estimate.” Researchers say the risk of autoimmune diseases changes at every age, but the results can serve as a guide in counseling people regarding their overall risk of these conditions.

New RA Risk Estimates

The study, published in Arthritis and Rheumatism, determined the average risk of developing one of seven of the most common autoimmune disorders over a person’s lifetime, including: rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriatic arthritis, polymyalgia rheumatica, giant cell arteritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and Sjögren’s syndrome.

Researchers based their estimates on the number of autoimmune diseases diagnosed between 1955 and 2007 among 1,179 residents of Olmstead County, Minn., and then extrapolated their results to the general population.

Overall, researchers estimate 8.4% of women (1 in 12) and 5.1% (1 in 20) of men will develop some type of autoimmune disease in their lifetime.
