Healing Diet Quick-Guide
We at DermaHarmony are proud to offer Your Healing Diet:
A Quick Guide to Reversing Psoriasis and Chronic Disease with
Healing Foods, by Deirdre Earls, RD, LD, as part of our
DermaDetox™ and DermaEssentials™ kits. A psoriasis sufferer herself, Ms. Earls had undergone years
of treatments for her condition, often with terrible side
effects and little success. Faced with the choice to take
chemotherapy drugs to help her psoriasis, Deirdre decided
to strike out on her own and investigate other, more natural
approaches to healing. She quickly discovered through research
that diet often plays a large role in the severity of psoriasis
patients, and decided to try changing her own diet in order
to heal her psoriasis. After six months her psoriasis had
improved dramatically. Several years later she decided to
write a book to share her experiences.
Broken
down into short, easy-to-read chapters, Earls stresses the
importance of whole foods as the core fuel your body needs
to reduce inflammation and function properly. She emphasizes
fresh, organic fruits and vegetables, and suggests adding
fish, whole grains and nuts as a regular part of the diet
as well. Although highlighting the benefits of this diet for
psoriasis sufferers, Earls notes that this diet has benefits
for anyone interested in making a positive change! - See a sample psoriasis diet meal plan.
Whereas most dietary books are long on theory and short on
practicality, Earls recognizes the difficulty we all face
in including healthy choices in our everyday lives. Most of
us are constantly on the go, and have little time to spend
long hours researching, preparing, and shopping for food.
This book makes it easy to make good choices! The dietary
guide offers lists of not only foods in their natural states
such as fruit that are the obvious choices for "convenience
foods," but also prepared foods found in many grocery
store chains. She also includes a section on restaurants so
that you can still enjoy an evening out and adhere to your
diet!
