The Immune System Recovery Plan: A Doctor's 4-Step Program to Treat Autoimmune Disease by Susan Blum

5.0

Having a more rare auto immune condition which can't be cured, I found this book helpful.

While it repeats what I have already learned from other sources regarding wheat and gluten and why we are seeing more sensitive to it now, it also connects the average American diet's over consumption of wheat at every meal, as well as sugar and unhealthy fats to autoimmune disease.

Autoimmune disease is on the rise- and in these cases of immune systems attacking the body's own tissues you can reduce the effects of an autoimmune condition by following the steps in this book.

Nutritional healing is key, but so is healthy thinking, exercise and rest.

You know all those things you are supposed to do anyway but might not do enough of?

Eat well- fresh/whole foods well. Take care of yourself. Sleep. Don't take things too seriously and find and reduce stressors in your life.

Do it like your life depends on it. If your condition could kill you, then your life does depend on it. It it can't - if it will just be a part of every day of your life until you die- the quality of each day you are on this earth depends on it because it can at times, become hard to see how you can live this way for 40, 50, ? more years.

Make the changes you can make to improve each day. This book will help you.
