31 / 2
http://www.dead-sea-health.org/eng/psoriasis_01.html

The salty seawater, with its unusually high concentration of minerals, the natural hot springs rich in minerals and sulphur, and the extraordinary climatic conditions, including uniquely filtered sun rays and an oxygen-rich dry air, due to the high barometric pressure prevailing here in the lowest spot on earth (417 meters below sea level), a therapeutic black mud – all combine in providing the basis for the successful effect of the Dead Sea therapies.
