Psoriasis diet meal plan
(1400-calorie)
 Changing
the way that you eat is one of the most important things you
can do to help alleviate your skin condition such as psoriasis.
We believe that your body is equipped to heal itself if provided
adequate support through proper nutrition,
cleansing
and diet. We’ve put this FREE 1400 calorie psoriasis diet meal plan together with
the help of Deirdre Earls because we want psoriatics to know
that there are nontoxic treatment options.
Deirdre Earls,
Licensed Dietitian (LD), Registered Dietition (RD), herself
a sufferer of chronic psoriasis, has helped us compile this
sample 14-day psoriasis diet meal plan at 1400 calories — best suited
to women and men who need to lose a bit of weight. Because
our 1400 calorie psoriasis diet is so popular, we’ve
recently added an 1800-calorie
psoriasis diet with additional recommendations.
Ms. Earls is a recognized expert in using a dietary approach
to reduce inflammation and enable the body to heal itself
naturally. For almost 30 years Deirdre struggled with severe
psoriasis. After just six months of using a meal plan like
the one presented here, her symptoms of severe psoriasis for
the most part disappeared (90% remission). Healing disease
with diet is not highly regarded in Western cultures, nor
is it scientifically proven. Notwithstanding, the power of
healing with food is indisputable — you have nothing
to lose but unwanted weight and bad skin. Try this
psoriasis diet!
Nutrition is the basis for all healing — not only because
it provides the nutrients your body needs, but because it
nourishes the intestinal system, the origin of your immune
system.

Some important pointers
- Whenever possible, eat organic, fresh, locally-grown produce,
eggs, dairy and meat.
- Whenever possible, select wild-harvested over farm-raised
fish.
- Some have found that they heal better with a dairy-free
diet. You may substitute the occasionally recommended
organic dairy with organic soy varieties.
- Some have found that they heal better with a nightshade-free
diet. You may want to eliminate tomatoes, white potatoes,
peppers and eggplant for three months or more to determine
how you respond.
Deirdre Earls has taken much of the guesswork out of an often
daunting decision — to completely change your diet.
