Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This could be the most important book you'll ever read if you, or someone you love, has lupus. Jill Harrington, the author, recovered from lupus over twelve years ago, using a specific diet and lifestyle. And... she's not the only one. You will read the stories of other people who have done the same thing. It isn't widely known how much of an effect the foods you eat can have on lupus and other autoimmune diseases. The people in this book have found that diet, sleep and exercise can make a profound difference. This book provides the exact program they followed, so that you can try it for yourself.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - AMAZING LUPUS DIET THAT WORKS
I have had Lupus for over 20 years & have been on about every medicine available WITH ALL THE BAD SIDE EFFECTS. I was skeptical about this diet but desperate for a safer way to get rid of the pain. My doctor was amazed at how quickly my pain went from a constant "9" to a "2" and stayed there! I am healthier than I've been in years!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - It's all about vegan
Presents a good argument for adopting a vegan diet as an alternative for managing autoimmune system disorders. It may be worth a try in lieu of Prednisone, Plaqenil, Cellcept and every other drug my rheumatologist keeps prescribing.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Solid Foundations
This book is just what I was looking for- a guide to managing my Lupus-like disease naturally. I only started the diet 2 days ago, so I cannot yet vouch for its efficacy, but a vegan diet is mentioned in numerous places elsewhere in terms of its benefit to those with autoimmunity. Ms. Harrington lays out a plan and justification, offering information as well as support. It can be overwhelming and confusing to look at all the health information out there on managing these illnesses, but this plan ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Outstanding very helpful book!
Jill's book was outstanding and very helpful. I bought 4 copies to give to other relatives who are caretaking and preparing food for my 4th grader who has a Lupus diagnosis. It was such an easy-read that he read and understood Jill's book as well and is now active in his own caretaking! I highly recommend this book to everyone who has or knows of someone with a Lupus diagnosis. It's a godsend.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Be cautious about how you approach healing your Lupus.
I bought this book perhaps three years ago when I was first diagnosed with Lupus. I read it extensively. I have had Lupus for more than a decade now, although I was only diagnosed just before I purchased this book. I am 45 years old, and I can honestly say that good nutrition is pivotal for any healthy body, but that Jill's proposed diet should be viewed with caution. There are indeed some lovely ideas about using whole foods, but here I was, a vegetarian for most of my life, eating a whole foods ... Read More
