Product Description
A leading researcher shares natural remedies for psoriasis

According to the National Psoriasis Foundation, at least seven million people in the U.S. and more than 100 million worldwide suffer from this chronic skin disease. This book outlines Dr. Pagano's natural, drug-free treatment regimen that can alleviate, control, and even heal psoriasis without steroid creams, tar baths, injections, or ultraviolet treatments. Healing Psoriasis outlines a healthy diet and lifestyle and includes case histories, photos, recipes, and a chapter on eczema.

John O. A. Pagano, DC (Englewood Cliffs, NJ), is a chiropractic physician who has conducted psoriasis research for more than 40 years. He has been a featured guest on CNBC, ABC, and Health Talk with Dr. Ronald Hoffman, and his work has been featured in Alternative Medicine and Dermatology Times. He has lectured on five continents.

4 out of 5 stars required reading for all psoriasis sufferers..   November 19, 2009
lazza (Fort Lauderdale, Florida)
Dr John Pagano's "Healing Psoriasis.." book is a godsend for those suffering with psoriasis and are sick of dealing with an endless cycle of expensive medications. He explains in great detail the causes of psoriasis and how dietary and lifestyle changes can help one heal oneself. He doesn't say it's easy. But he has documented many cases where his patients have made extraordinary results in clearing their psoriasis without any prescription drugs. No, your dermatologist probably won't approve. But I suggest jumping off the medication rollercoaster, read Pagano's book and heal yourself naturally.

But this book is not perfect. Pagano has a tendency to be repetitious, and some of what he suggests come without explanation. He also seems to repeatedly endorse a couple products and suppliers which can leave one wondering if Pagano is shamefully trying to earn extra money beyond book royalties. Still, the book is very readable and well laid out.


Bottom line: imperfect but the sort of book that should be on every psoriasis sufferer's bookshelf.



5 out of 5 stars On the way to Healing Psoriasis   November 2, 2009
Mayank Minglani (Chicago, IL)
Hi All
I am Psoriasis victim from the time I was a young kid. I did try topical treatment, allopathy medicines, homeopathy medicines and what not, but flares never went away completely. Since I have Psoriasis on my feet I never really bothered much but about 4-5 months ago I decided to transform my lifestyle and thats when I got hold of this book. I read this book but never really followed much. But a month ago, I started making the lifestyle changes recommended in this book and within a month I can see the changes in my skin. My skin is healing than never before. Definitely recommend this book and for people who are ordering this books read the review of C. Spark, he definitely has some startup tips till the time you dont finish reading the book.



5 out of 5 stars amazing..buy the book   October 31, 2009

I'm from Malaysia and have suffered from psoriasis for 20 years. my wife was fed up with my skin problem and sat up 1 night for 7 hours to find a 'cure' on the Internet and finally was convinced to buy this book online. we got it shipped from the states and it came by Dec 08. By Jan 09 the book was full of dog-ears and outlines in the paragraphs. she took before photos of my condition and now I am happy to say that I am 80% clear.

the diet part is easy that's because i cheated and still achieved 80% success rate. i didn't do the teas as i couldn't find it here but boy did I drink lots of lemon juice. i have the occasional pizza but make up by drinking lots of lemon juice after to 'alkalise' the body.

the hardest part as predicted by pagano was the healing crisis (boy did it did occur) and it was aweful until I really wanted to give up but wifey nagged me to stick to it.

give the book a try. i tweaked a little here and there and still got the results. next year i plan to strive for 100% healing of the skin. i guess this time I will have to buy the teas online. whatever you do, just try to hang on till the healing crisis recovers. mine was 2-3 weeks. and do take before and after photos as i really didn't believe my wife when she said I was 50% healed until I saw the photos of the old me. good luck!




5 out of 5 stars MOST EXCELLENT INFORMATION - TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR OWN HEALTH!!!   August 26, 2009
Deborah D. Dumont (San Diego to the New Brave World)
Healing Psoriasis will probably heal more than the title describes! This is an excellent book for any individual that beleives that diet is the best medicine! A perfect companion to the "Fat Flush Plan" by Louise Ann Gittleman. I have incorporated just a few of the suggestions and the results are amazing - just amazing! Bring your own intelligence into action by reading this book & altering your LIFE. Thank God for John Pagano's contribution. The natural alternative presented seems simple but obviously not easy or a book would not be needed.


1 out of 5 stars DON'T BUY THIS BOOK UNLESS YOU LOVE FRUITS AND VEGGIES!   July 13, 2009
J. Bryant
4 out of 6 found this review helpful

The book, has some great and expensive info inside, don't get me wrong.Now imagine being told that you could never eat all the foods you grew up on and have been eating all your life. Did you feel a little part of you die inside? He has had great results with SOME patients. I started off with all the faith, and followed everything the doctor says. I have had some results but not the kind I would like, which makes me very sad.

But you will have to spend money on teas, and drink them at certain times of the day. You will have to change your diet for the rest of your life, to 80% FRUITS AND VEGGIES. You can only drink WATER AND WATER ONLY!!! The other 20 percent is Fish, chicken or nuts. It is very hard and difficult to live by. Psoriasis clears very very slowly, but if you have something that is fore bitten, for example a fried foods, or pizza, your psoriasis will comeback within 2 days.

The doctor also wants you to stick things up your butt and clean your colon with flushes, and also tellS you to get spine adjustments. Don't get in to stressful situations. I have done 2 cleaning and lost about 5 pounds.

If you have nail and scalp psoriasis this is even harder, because of the treatments, soaking your hands and feet 20 mins a day,(then putting socks on your hands and feet for the rest of the nite) peanut and olive oil on the scalp. All this stuff adds up and is very costly especially the organic vegetables.

The doctor explains, that psoriasis are toxins coming from the holes in the intestines, and liver, because they have holes in them if you have acne, or psoriasis, which i do believe. (leaky gut)
The doctor does say this is not 100 percent and everyone won't be healed, but later on he saids the only ones that aren't healed are the ones that didn't stay just eating fruits and vegetables.
I recommend that you supplement, with natural supplements that heal the liver and clean the blood. Because if you have a lot of Psoriasis as I do you probably have liver damage and unclean blood. (your blood is like acid and thick from the food you eat.)The advice makes sense but it very hard to impossible to live buy.

I really hoped that this book would help me, but if just made me hungry and angry. NOW IF YOU CAN EAT FRUITS AND VEGGIES, AND LOTS OF FISH, AND WHEAT BREAD AND NUTS, WATER FOR REST OF YOUR LIFE, AND THATS IT, then buy the book, if not don't waste your time condemning yourself.
