Author Lisa LeVan suffered with psoriasis for years. Her physicians prescribed numerous medications to treat her condition, but while these products made her psoriasis disappear in one area, the symptoms would flare up in another place. She soon learned that traditional treatment did not treat the condition at all; they only covered up the symptoms. Not only that, they often caused dangerous, even life-threatening, side effects that were worse than the original symptoms. Ms. LeVan then decided to put her experience as a research biochemist to work to find a cure for her psoriasis. In The Psoriasis Cure, she presents her remarkable discovery. The Psoriasis Cure details Lisa LeVan’s drug-free therapy for eliminating both the symptoms and root causes of psoriasis. The book begins with a clear explanation of exactly what psoriasis is and what its possible causes are. It then examines how today’s commonly prescribed treatments for psoriasis may adversely affect your health. The book goes on to provide you with guidelines for LeVan’s complete program to prevent your symptoms from returning. This book does not offer a quick fix for psoriasis.
