...inflammatory and proliferating skin conditions like acne and psoriasis are associated with decreased cyclic nucleotides, like cAMP in blood and epidermal cells. (1) With the knowledge of these facts, the correction of the cellular energetic metabolism, by means of energy generating compounds is a prerequisite for successful integrative treatment. Research conducted at the Spezialklinik in Neukirchen, Germany, has led to a new skin formulation, known as Energy ® cream. It was originally used for clinical conditions like psoriasis, acne, seborrhoic eczema and burns.

Psoriasis is a well-known inflammatory skin disease associated with erythema, development of scales, vesicles and an accelerated growth of the epidermis. Besides the genetic disposition, additional provocations include:

· Chemical or physical skin irritations, skin injuries, surgical interventions

· Negative climate changes, (damp and cold weather, sunburn)

· Long-term intake of drugs, (for example, beta-blockers, lithium salts, penicillin, sulfonamides, anti-malaria-drugs etc)

· Bacterial or mycotic infections of the skin, lungs or intestinal tract, as superantigen triggers

· Cytokine misbalance related to changes in the humoral and cellular immune function

· Consumption of specific foods and food supplements, increasing the skin irritation by IgE-mediated or pseudoallergic reactions

· Toxins like pesticides, fertilizers, wood preservatives, solvents, cosmetic ingredients or heavy metals from dental alloys, triggering the keratocyte proliferation via activated T-lymphocytes

· An impaired energetic metabolism associated with low concentrations of energy rich compounds (ATP) and cyclic nucleotides (cAMP), related to the increased epidermal proliferation rate

· A misbalanced purine, protein and polyunsaturated fat metabolism

· A decreased antitoxic function of liver and blood cells

· Neurohormonal disturbances expressed by significant variations of catecholamines and suppression of ?-adrenoreceptors

· Significantly increased free radical levels in whole blood and deviations of the plasma and serum redox potentials

· Negative psychogenic factors like conflict situations, examination anxiety, loss of job, accidents, operations, divorce, death of relatives etc
