Mother washes hands in breast milk to ‘cure’ psoriasis

A new mother has claimed that washing her hands in breast milk has cured her psoriasis.

Ashley LeMieux, 36, said that her skin condition, which she described as feeling like “like a million needles”, was healed after just four days.

The author created a lotion with added lavender oil to hide the “smell” which she shares with her husband Mike LeMieux.

“I’m applying the lotion once a day. I don’t know the science behind it but I just know that the milk is full of so many healing properties,” Ashley said.
