My Lupus Journey – Eat to a better health!

Getting diagnosed with Lupus was actually the best thing that could have happened to me because I finally knew why I felt so terrible and what I needed to do to fix it.

Since treating my lupus naturally, my life has become exponentially better. In terms of eating, I follow an anti-inflammatory diet to help with fatigue.

One thing to keep in mind is that Lupus manifests itself differently in every woman/man and is not a one-size-fits-all diagnosis. I personally had no rash or the butterfly mark. This is why Lupus is so misdiagnosed.
