Background: Time-restricted feeding (TRF) means that a person eats only during certain hours of the day. In other studies, researchers have found that fasting can improve immune system function in healthy people. They want to see if TRF has the same effect on people with psoriasis. Objective: To test whether TRF can change metabolism and decrease some markers of inflammation in the blood of people with mild to moderate psoriasis. Eligibility: Males ages 18 to 80 with mild to moderate active psoriasis, and healthy volunteers Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history and medicine review. They will have a physical exam and blood tests. Their skin will be examined. They will have a nutritional evaluation. Their resting energy expenditure will be measured. For this, a clear plastic ventilation hood will be placed over the head for a short time. Participants will stay at the NIH Clinical Center for 4 1/2 days. They can watch TV, do work, do schoolwork, and other quiet activities. A small sensor will be placed under participants skin to measure blood glucose. For part of the study, participants will be housed in a small room called a metabolic chamber. They will wear a heart monitor.
