I have suffered from severe scalp psoriasis for 14 years. I have very think brunette hair, making my scalp particularly hard to treat. After trying every medicine under the sun, both prescription and over the counter, the only thing that ever worked for me were injections. I was on Enbrel from 2009-2011 and then Stelara from 2011-2013. When I decided to get pregnant, I had to stop all of my meds. Pregnancy kept my symptoms relatively at bay, but postpartum, my skin erupted, and fast. I had lesions in places I'd never seen them before. 90% of my scalp had thick lesions and perhaps worse, I had 4" lesions around my nipples, making it very difficult and uncomfortable to breastfeed. I came across this book on Amazon while shopping for alternative treatments. Due to the compelling reviews, I figured I'd give it a shot. I followed the system nearly to a "t" for the first 3 weeks. I did not do any hydrotherapy or home enemas, but I did a 2-day apple cleanse, cut out all sugar, white flour, nightshades and coffee, and began a regime of Slippery Elm Bark tea in the mornings and lemon water throughout the day. Since then, I have stayed 100% off nightshades but have reintroduced very limited quantities of white flour, sugar and decaf black coffee. Within one week the lesions on my nipples were 90% gone. Within two weeks, the lesions on my body started to fade. Within four weeks, 75% of my body lesions were gone. As of today, which has been about 5 weeks since I started the regime, my scalp and body are 95% clear. I am honestly in a state of shock. I feel like telling everyone I know about Pagano's theories. A couple notes: ** I found sea salt baths to be helpful as my body healed itself. Pagano recommends epsom salt baths (using 4 pounds of salt!), but I had read about people having success with Pink Himalayan Sea Salt, so I tried that instead. SF Salt sells it for a really great price. ** I used a topical prescription treatment to help speed things along (Clobex spray), but I plan to stop using it in the next week or so as I get closer to 100% clear. ** I found Burt's Bees Miracle Salve to be a great product for my nipples. I had to avoid all medications in that area due to breastfeeding. ** I discovered that my baby's Burt's Bees Baby Shampoo & Wash worked really well for my hair and scalp. Plus it smells delicious. I have since switched to the adult version of Burt's Bees Shampoo and think the gentle formula has been a welcome change for my scalp as it heals. ** Pagano recommends a pretty large list of supplements. I couldn't commit to the whole list due to personal preference and breastfeeding, but I have been taking 1000mg Flaxseed Oil, 200mg Milk Thistle, a pre/post-natal multi-vitamin (contains Zinc and Vitamin A), and 100mg Colace (stool softener). Instead of taking an additional 1000mg of Fish Oil, I've just been making it a point to each fish at least 4 days a week. To anyone considering trying Pagano's 'diet', I urge you to not be afraid of what seems like an overwhelming list of 'to-do's' and 'not-to-do's'. I have found the diet very easy to follow and actually quite fulfilling. It's been nice to be cooking again and eating more healthy foods. Pizza has been hard to give up, but when your skin clears up like mine did, you won't feel too bad about missing out on a slice. Seeing amazing results sure makes the regime seem a lot easier to execute. I am so grateful for discovering this book and I encourage you to try it if you're a psoriasis sufferer. *I am a real person who actually bought this book on Amazon and have not been compensated for this review.*

This book has changed my life for the better and I am so thankful to Dr. Pagano!! When I was first diagnosed with Psoriasis in April 2015 I thought my life was over because I had Psoriasis all over my body from head to toes. I thought I could never go out in public. I thought I would never be loved again. I thought I would never be able to wear skirts and short-sleeves again for the rest of my life. To make matters ever worse, my doctors told me that I was likely to be in that state (have Psoriasis all over me) for a long long time, possibly for the rest of my life. Then my doctors suggested that I take cancer drugs. I wept for a long time because I felt utterly hopeless. But after doing some research about Dr. Pagano's treatment methods I rejected the possibility of taking cancer drugs. Instead, I bought his book and read it voraciously into the night like my life depended on it. Actually, I was itching all over the place so I could hardly get maybe 2 hours of sleep per night anyway so I spent all that time reading his book. :) I read and followed every step of Dr. Pagano's strict dietary regimen even though I was at times tempted to break off and give up. I fought the urge! I fought off the temptation!. I did my exercises as he had recommended. I ate foods that I normally did not eat. I rejected foods that were bad for me (a.k.a. trigger Psoriasis). I drank 8-10 glasses of water every day. I avoided nightshades, red meat, gluten, sugar, spices, fried foods, processed foods and all kinds of foods that I used to love. I went through a total cleanse of my system. I basically changed my lifestyle, my dietary habits, my way of thinking, and my way of living my life. After 6 months of rigorously following Dr. Pagano's steps AND using the prescribed cream AND doing phototherapy, I went to see my family doctor and my specialist again for a follow up and let me tell you, they were both AMAZED by my ultra quick recovery! They honestly didn't think I would have my normal skin again for at least another 3 years or more. But in just 6 months most of my Psoriasis was gone (except for a dot here or a dot there) and it seemed as if somebody had used an eraser on my skin! I still had to do more check ups and phototherapy afterward to ensure that my Psoriasis didn't flare up again but after 1 year and 2 months I can thankfully say that my skin looks absolutely beautiful and clean these days. I have even received a few compliments on my skin from strangers. When people ask me what I do to have such beautiful skin I smile and say "It has a lot to do with what I eat and don't eat" but I know there's A LOT more to that story. :) Anyway, I am definitely healthier and happier than I used to be all thanks to Dr. John Pagano and his lifetime passion of researching Psoriasis and treating patients. Thank you Dr. Pagano! You are a gift to humanity and my personal hero!

This is the first amazon review I have ever written. I feel it is my duty. I bought this book well over a year ago and implemented dietary changes almost immediately, I saw no change whatsoever after a couple of months and gave up the ghost until January this year. After a particularly bad flare I decided to implement the dietary changes again, this time with a twist. I eliminated dairy (even though it is permitted) and nuts (again, permitted on the diet.) I basically eat the same sorts of things every day, which I realise takes dedication. I weighed up the pros and cons of doing this and it basically comes down to the fact that psoriasis that would cover every part of me (if I let it), including my face. This fact ruins my quality of life much more than desire for variety of food. After 1 week my psoriasis changed and was less red, some of it clearing. I helped it along with Dermalex non-steroid cream (this cream has no impact when I bought it last year!) In 3 weeks my psoriasis was gone. Everywhere. I have not been psoriasis free for 17 years. My skin is thicker and looks normal (even my non-psoriatic skin would look thin and reddish, especially at the joints). I have only implemented dietary changes and added non GM soya lecithin to my diet. I have always taken a krill oil supplement, a probiotic and digestive enzymes. I eat sweet potato, broccoli, spinach, various salad leaves, green beans, parsnip, cucumber, celery, cauliflower and carrot. For a dressing I mix olive oil and cider vinegar with salt. I eat chicken and fish (no lamb which is permitted). To snack I eat fresh/frozen fruit or rice cakes with tuna. Every morning I blend kale, spinach, carrot, spring water and brown rice protein (a green smoothie!). The trick is to eat fresh, and low fat. I am no longer bloated and far less gas, my digestive system is healthier which has had a clear positive effect on my skin (as explained in the book). This review has gotten long so I will round it up. If you are wondering whether or not this book will have a positive effect I believe it will. It may not be tailored to your exact needs. If you find the diet is not working, adapt it. Cut dairy, cut nuts go right back to basics. Yes it is restrictive, yes you might have to eat a salad at an italian restaurant and watch everyone else stuff their faces on pizza but it is not the end of the world. Keep thinking of the positive effect the diet is having. Oh and by the way, do not cheat! You could ruin all your hard work. Take control of your life, Pagano says you do not have to follow the diet forever. I'm going to start factoring things like a bit of chocolate back into my diet very soon.
