What I Put In My Water

Liquid Chlorophyll

My mom has been dropping this into a glass of water every night of her life religiously since the early 80s, she calls it her “green drink”. As a kid, I never understood, but I drank it. As I moved out of the house into college, stopped drinking this and my better diet she kept up, my skin issues started almost instantly with acne, to eczema, and ultimately Psoriasis. This Liquid Chlorophyll with the drops below is a potent medicine to help your body function properly again and eliminate acids. I shake it well and add 4-5 teaspoons into ONE liter of room temperature, filtered water. If you don’t mind it, add a bit more. I’ll have 2-3 liters of this “green drink” everyday. This is a vital piece of your Water Power Pack to start reversing the acidic condition and rooting out harmful microforms.

Ion & pH Booster Drops

What do you know? Water is at the basis of all my other natural remedies for Psoriasis. These drops are the easiest and cheapest way to introduce vital ionic minerals and oxygenation to your water which starts to change the internal environment. It is a 2-bottle pack: pH drops and Ion drops, shake both well before adding. I recommend drinking your water at room temperature. Start with 6 each, then in 2 weeks, double to 12 after you see how you feel, then about 3-4 weeks in, double to 24 drops each to ONE liter of water. I also suggest adding a lemon/lime to each liter as well. The result is electronically-charged water that invigorate cells to work efficiently and purify the blood. As I said earlier, this mixed with Liquid Chlorophyll I think is the most important combo.

Cell Power Drops

These drops are a bit more expensive and only available in the USA. There is another brand called “Cell Food” which has international distributors. Click here to see if it is available and affordable in your country! I suggest starting with 5 drops per liter, then graduate up to 10 then 15 drops over 4-5 weeks time, see how your body feels.

GenEssentials GREENS

I have started adding a heaping teaspoon to 8 oz. of water every morning In middle of September. This has been a great source of kale and other hard to find greens, ocean vegetables that the body can really thrive on. The taste is fine, it’s really easy to swallow. Stir it up, add 3 drops and drink it down to start the day with an excellent green flush!

Beneficial Teas To Drink

Slippery Elm Powder

This is Dr. Pagano’s secret weapon (author of Healing Psoriasis: The Natural Alternative). It is probably the least tasty of the concoctions you must drink but it is the basis of rebuilding your permeable gut wall, which is what causes Leaky Gut Syndrome. This is the doorway to pathogens and toxins seeping into the blood, slowly poisoning it. These walls must be built back up, and slippery elm bark is the concrete for the job. Add a heaping teaspoon to room temperature water in the morning when you wake up. Let it steep for just about 20 minutes. Then stir it up good and start sucking it down to start your Psoriasis healing journey!

American Saffron Tea

This is the other vital tea from Pagano’s book that I swear by. I’ll make this in the afternoon, as it helps me transition off coffee in the morning. Steep this for about ten minutes and sip. It’s a tasty, tangy flavor. You can add a lemon or some stevia to taste. I also will steep a tablespoon and add it to my liter water bottle. The main property is purifying the kidneys and liver. This is an afternoon delight home remedy for psoriasis

Books I Have Read Multiple Times To Prepare Me

pH Miracle

This is the book at the basis of my diet regimen. The chapters on microforms, transition and the true effectiveness of alkaline blood. The human body has the power to fight off any disease or disorder. This book by the Youngs is a fantastic educational guide to raising your pH and revitalizing every cell in your body! They give you a strong list of natural remedies that work for Psoriasis and a multitude of other dis-eases and dis-orders

Healing Psoriasis

When I first started turning towards alternative homeopathic ways to heal my Psoriasis in 2007, a friend of my brother gave me this book. At the time I wasn’t ready yet to accept the principles and responsibility to take action. The last two years, I have been absorbing more literature on homeopathic remedies for Psoriasis, and I come back to this book mainly for the instruction on cleansing the digestive tract, aka the Gut.

Body Ecology Diet

The extensive information on the bacteria life in the human body is quite mesmerizing. I don’t follow the dietary suggestions of spoiling vegetables strategically. I do believe firmly that antibiotics make the situation worse, along with most other medications after reading it. This book offers great practices with balancing probiotics as a natural Psoriasis remedy.

Juicing Green Vegetables

Hamilton Beach Juicer

Everything the body needs to start and drive the healing process can be found in green vegetables. I fully believe that green veggie juice heals Psoriasis like medicine. When you juice these veggies down the body gets the vitamins and minerals in a liquid form that is most easy to digest and put into action! This Hamilton Beach juicer has pumped out hundreds of juices for me over the past year. The key is to clean it out, especially the grate, right after use. That will prolong the life of your juicer drastically.

Testing your body’s pH

Phinex Diagnostic Ph Test Strips

You can easily test the pH of your saliva and urine with these strips. The best time to test is in the morning, when you are most acidic. You can then drink one liter of lemon/lime water and test again when you urinate. Sometimes, even that quickly, you will see a better result.

Practice. Persistence. Patience. Passion. Psoriasis

As I’m focusing in on making a 2nd half push, I’m visualizing how far I’ve come. With a skin issue like this, even if there is improvement, I have an overly-hypercritical perspective on myself. This analysis paralysis will affect emotions greatly. The key to keeping emotions intact and balanced is based on THREE aspects, I believe:

Continuous Practice
Give Yourself Some Credit
Love Your Body Every Moment

Continuous practice is where faith is built.

psoriasis-persistence I say this all the time to my entrepreneurial clients and students. “Faith is built through practice”. The simple essence is deeper than that, which is practice keeps us busy on the constructive path. Ever since I stopped visiting so many Dermas, Doctors and Specialists, and started researching literature myself and practicing the principles in those pages, I was in the game.

I instantly felt empowered, accountable and responsible. I grew a self-awareness in these first days. “I can take action to help my body and soul” I have awareness of my emotions and how they move. I understand how important food is on my emotions and biology, I can control that. This thought process is the basis for my practice. For the past year, I have been going to work on this. I don’t wait for referrals, recommendations, appointments and more news I have already foreshadowed getting. Now, I make my own headlines;

“31-year-old Male Reverses His Auto-Immune Disorder Naturally”.

Find the methods that are feasible for you and your lifestyle at first, but understand that what you are preparing to experience is a paradigm shift of your lifestyle. You will be looking at food differently. You won’t be thinking about the word “diet” as we perceive it now, which is to subtract. You will be thinking of diet as a ever-growing list of natural home remedies for psoriasis you NEED to ADD. That is my #1 principle to practice. I added specific foods, juices, supplements, drops to my Psoriasis diet and now I am healing my Psoriasis.

What do you have as your practice field? What can you start doing to keep track of your practice? This keeps us honestly attached to results and outcomes we experience, good or bad. When bad, you can reassess and adjust, and you will be honest with yourself always this way. Practice leads to consistent empowerment which is why we will continue to take action.

I always remember to pat myself on the back now and get back to work.

I am done punishing myself. For many years, I became so swept up in my appearance, the pain, the symptoms and the “why me?” side of Psoriasis. Now, I’m in the game. It’s not “why me?” it’s simply “what do I need?“.

“Why me?” always made me feel stricken with this issue, always positioning myself as the victim, powerless. “What do I need?” put me in a power-position for the first time. Granted, it took me five years to make the necessary fundamental changes to push my paradigm shift, but now I’m here.

Am I still covered in P? Sure I am. Am I still afraid of it never ending until my life ends? Not anymore.

I am not punishing myself anymore for it. I am giving myself credit at every turn. I have tools in place to make up for mistakes. I have two beers, and four slices of pizza, I simply say “whoops I’ll make up for that with more alkaline fluids right now!“. Give yourself credit for the steps you are taking. Understand that since Psoriasis is so tied into our mind, bloodstream, organs and tissues that it will be constantly flaring, fluctuating and freaking. It will be most drastic as we are climbing the mountain of healing Psoriasis naturally.

I love my body and it needs me now, more than ever.

Doesn’t that just sound like a Warrior’s cry? My body needs me. It simply can’t defeat this beast without a lot of assistance from my Earth and environment. The Earth provides all that the body needs to heal. I must find it and eat it, that is my task. This will be healed from the inside-out, not the other way around.

psoriasis-plants I will use the Earth’s grace and improve the internal environment of my body. When our power and choices are given to an expert to make, our bodies and health are a product of his/her practice.

When we have our own practice in place, using natural items we can afford with great ease, we are the product of our own practice. Always seek the opinions of experts, but always seek education and make choices.

When I adopted this mindset, I found it much easier to love my body. Now, when I look in the mirror, I don’t think “this is awful, I can’t believe this happened TO me, I think “I’m on my way, keep pushing and I’ll get there“.

Practice. Persistence. Patience. Passion. Psoriasis…POWER

These are the ingredients for a Paradigm Shift of Lifestyle. That is what I am striving for, and slowly realizing, as my P slowly goes away, and my Power quickly comes about.

Back In The Saddle

ll-cool-j “Don’t call it a comeback, I’ve been here for years!”

It’s been a long time since I’ve posted in my diary. I just got back from a six-week business/leisure trip. I learned, once again, how difficult it is to keep up a healthy green diet while traveling. It is so easy to give back into our old ways of eating and treating our bodies.

I also realized how much my practice to date has ingrained a new sense of health and vitality as well. I am on my way to a full paradigm shift in lifestyle. The underlying engine of healing my Psoriasis, balancing my body and clearing my skin.

Even with all the food I ate on my travels, my skin continued to progress in the right direction. The healing process certainly slowed down. What I could feel now is a keener sense of my pH becoming more acidic as I strayed away from my daily routine.

Now that I’m back home, it’s time to reassert conviction, determination and persevere. I WILL HEAL MY PSORIASIS by the end of this year. I will be more closely blogging about my progress constantly to keep myself focused.

To review, These are the most important natural remedies for Psoriasis that I will focus on getting in my body on a daily basis:

3-4 liters of room-temperature water with my alkalizing drops
1-2 green juices consisting mainly of celery, cucumber, broccoli, ginger, carrot, spinach, parsley, cilantro, 1 green apple, 1 kiwi and anything else green I can stuff in there
2-3 8 oz cups of green grass powder stirred into water
Liquid Chlorophyll once per night before bed
Extra-virgin cold-pressed olive oil for cooking and on all green salads
1-2 avocados per day, typically made into guacamole

These six steps will raise my pH very fast. I probably slipped from about a 7.0 back closer to 6.0 or lower. The goal is to get my pH up to 7.25 to optimize healing of my blood.

That is the MAJOR GOAL, purifying the blood. The cleaner our blood, the more toxins it can process and filter out.

I’m working on an overview guide based on my Psoriasis diet journal that I will offer for free to help others get started on their journey to healing Psoriasis, Eczema and all other skin conditions simply by adjusting what we eat.

Remember this simple fact:

It’s not about what you subtract, it’s about what you add

This is not a diet of taking away things you like to eat. It’s about adding things you NEED to eat to help your body balance, align and heal. We have all the power inside of us to heal any ailment from cancer to diabetes to auto-immune disorders. We have the power. Believe that you are your own Physician and get to work.

Happy Thanksgiving! What I Have To Be Thankful For

Hello All My Psoriasis Healing Warriors!!

Happy Turkey Day to all out there. As we sit back and enjoy family, good food and whatever else floats your boat, take a moment to mark 5 monumental things you are happy for in your life. So, Here are mine:

My Family & True Friends
My Health & Prosperity as a Free Human
My Intellect and Intelligence (the ability to make conscious choices)
This beautiful planet I get to roam
MY HOMEOPATHIC PSORIASIS TREATMENT THROUGH DIET IS WORKING!

Yup, that’s right, I am only 5 weeks into my lifestyle transition towards a fully alkaline diet. I am making steady progress getting more and more acidic foods and combinations out of my face and replacing with green juices, alkaline-forming foods. I can’t believe how much this is helping with my psoriasis.

The main symptoms of Psoriasis I notice healing are

My skin regeneration cycle has slowed down by atleast 30%
Much less itching overall
My chest and abdomen which is 100% covered in P is much softer and much less pain
Behind my ears are softer
Much less dandruff coming off my scalp, and my scalp psoriasis in general feels almost completely gone!!

Am I jumping the gun in my optimism? Maybe, but I feel a cool resolve in my conviction to just continue on my psoriasis diet routine, continue my alternative treatment, which is the belief that I can heal myself, and food is my medicine. Sure, I’m taking some herbs for psoriasis too, which I’ll list in depth in my upcoming eBook. “The Warrior’s Guide To Defeating P” stay tuned!!

All I know is, the scratching, the clawing, the bleeding, the grinding, the rubbing, the sanding, my scalp Psoriasis it’s all coming to an end, because this warrior is healing his psoriasis naturally, and you WILL too.

Healing Psoriasis Journal Entry #6: Seeing Signs

Ok, It’s been about 5 – 6 weeks now on my transitional diet. The main part of that is staying away from all red meats, most all cheese and dairy, all refined sugars and gluten. I would say about 60-80% of my diet the past 4 weeks has been plant-based.

The last week, with a friend in town, and a night out on the town this weekend, I had some serious cheats. These consisted of popcorn and soda at the movies, a latte, a whopper value meal (which was quite tasty) and a few beers while we went bowling. I clearly notice the following symptoms when I eat large portions of acidic food:

heartburn
indigestion or tightness in bowels
constipation
fatigue
soreness

I’m much more aware of the correlation of acid foods and Psoriasis symptoms, now that I have been eating a healing-focused psoriasis diet since October.

As far as my skin, I have noticed a good amount of clearance on my chest and abdomen. My shoulders and top of my arms are lightening a bit. The other major sign of Psoriasis healing is the pace at which the skin regenerates in general. This pace is much slower now. I know this, because I usually have to take a shower at certain times to go through my “molting” process. The past 48-72 hours, I’ve been able to slack off a bit, without pain on my chest area, yesterday I did not take a shower at all. I used much less lotion than usual as well.

I am happy with the progress so far, and staying focused on the everyday routine of the natural psoriasis remedies I put in my body. My morning ritual is:

1 liter room temp water, with 1 full lime squeezed, 15 alkalizing drops
1 tablespoon green superfood in 1 cup water stirred
1 tablespoon slippery elm tea, steeped for 20 minutes in 1 cup room temp water
20 drops milk thistle in 1 cup water
green juice

If I get repetitive, I apologize, but it’s a big part of the practice. My habits are positively changing more each day. It’s becoming easier to eat this way, and the lifestyle is setting in slowly but surely.

I’m on board completely. I will heal my Psoriasis, with consistent, persistent change in myself.

Healing Psoriasis Journal Entry #5: The Ups and Downs of Die-Off

Hello Warriors!

Hope you had a nice halloween holiday in whichever traditions you celebrate. Here in Mexico, it is “Dia de Muertos” – Day of the Dead, where they honor their elders and ancestors. My illustrator, whom I do web design with, is Phillipino and he and his family visit the cemetery for a sacred gathering of tribute and celebration of those before them. I was fascinated by that, thinking back to my times in the States, where snatching candy all night in a half-assed costume turned into partying and drinking way too much in college, still wearing a half-assed costume. To each country their own way of celebrating I guess.

So! As I continue my trek of self-healing, I have some updates on the progress…

The Ups and Downs of the Die-Off Period of Healing Psoriasis

I knew this phase was coming, where symptoms will worsen, experience some fatigue, as my body battles all the microforms in my blood. As those microforms, pathogens, viruses, fungi, and other invaders start to starve and die, they release even more toxins into the blood. This is their attempt at grasping for life. I tend to think of the process this way, because I love to portray or reenact battles in history books in my mind. As I now am fueling my immune system and digestive system with the right foods (mostly), I feel like I am a positive leader on the front lines.

Anyways, Here is a photo of my right forearm, to show you an example of what I’m experiencing at the moment. I made some changes, using my schotty Photoshop skills so bear with me. I am seeing a bunch of little bumps appearing around some of the main lesions I’ve had for years now, on my arms. I point out these little spots that appear in bunches close to larger, older ones. This phenomenon is happening on my upper arms as well along with areas on my legs.

From what I have read about natural remedies for psoriasis in The pH Miracle & The Body Ecology Diet this is expected and totally normal. So, instead of feelings of dread or despair from new spots appearing, I am feeling exhilarated and more desire to increase what I am doing.

I am keeping a very close eye now on every spot on my body, mapping them like the stars, and every new abrasion that shows up or goes away, will be logged, any signs of healing at all I will write about on here. These small new spots on my arms are a sign of progress. Keep Fighting, Keep Healing

Juicing: As I prepare for my veggie juice fast that is coming up middle of this month, I am moving towards three juices per day. I will be writing a full informative post on my approach to juicing, my favorite recipes, and other useful information shortly. I am working towards a point where I do a green juice just after the Slippery Elm Tea in the mornings. I am THE WORST breakfast eater, have been ever since I was young. For the past few years, coffee has been my breakfast. I’m sure many can relate to something like that. I must have an Alkaline start to my day.

Coffee: I am still drinking coffee every day. I am using just a bit of Stevia as a sweetener, which is delicious. The key is moving away from the Joe every day, and savoring just 2-3 days per week, then 1-2 days etc… For now, I am offsetting the acidity of the coffee with green Superfood mixed in water along with my lemon water jug.

Cooking & Recipes: Slowly but surely, I am getting more creative with vegetable sautes and mixtures. I have delicious little snack preps comprised of hummus, olive oil, italion seasonings, herbamare a long with carrots, celery and cucumbers to dip.

Dinners are some what redundant at the moment. Mainly I saute or steam up zucchini with onion, broccoli and some cilantro or other greens to taste. I used a cold pressed extra virgin olive oil, which is yummy. My sister Kim, will be helping me in more creative ways to prepare vegetarian and vegan dishes! I am excited about that, as it will help me sustain the lifestyle. I also am still cooking to late on some nights. Very Important to stop eating at least 2-3 hours before sleeping.

I am pretty much past the starvation. When I get to being an excellent Alkaline breakfast eater, I will beat it completely. Avocados are your best friends to kick back the starving feeling that the microforms are transcending to you. They are pissed off that they are not getting sugar consistently any more. So they kick back senses and feelings of starvation.

Meat: I made it through the entire 1st month with out any red meat of any kind. This is a big part of the transition. My animal proteins were strictly fish, shrimp, a little bit of chicken and some eggs. I don’t miss it much. I do miss grilling, that is my favorite way to cook. So I have to start grilling some veggies and fish, which will be just as tasty!

That about wraps up my thinking for this post. Be on the look out for my juicing post and as I continue to show more image examples of how my progress is coming along!

Stay Strong, Keep Healing. Don’t Ever Deter From the Moment
