(yikes!, huh?) the first to manifest? psoriasis. now, while i've cursed the psoriasis for 25 years, i've also come to regard it as a marker of inflammation. that is to say: when my psoriasis is red, inflamed and painful, i know something is going on *inside.* so i've been making gradual changes to my diet for the past couple of years and making note of what works and what doesn't. (and for the record, one of my other auto-immune diseases is Multiple Sclerosis, so...i'm pretty clear on when things have *really* spiraled out of control). i've drastically reduced or eliminated entirely processed sugar, foods with a high-glycemic index (bread, potatoes, corn, white rice) and increased my fruits/vegetable intake to a minimum of 6 servings/day. all of that has helped quite a lot; my psoriasis wasn't getting too out of hand, but it was still there. and then...then i started eating 2 eggs/day for my lunch (with two veggies and a fruit). and after a couple of weeks, you know what happened? my psoriasis started to spontaneously clear. so i did some research to see if the eggs had something to do with it, being as the addition of them to my diet was one of two things i'd changed. and sure enough: eggs have TREMENDOUS anti-inflammatory properties. start with this article: http://www.whfoods.com/genpage.php?tname=foodspice&dbid=92 so that's about the eggs. the other thing i changed? i added a whole apple to my morning oatmeal. i eat organic oatmeal, no sugar added. so, with some cinnamon and a whole apple in my oatmeal, that's my entire breakfast. so, with all due respect, i must ask: eggs and apples as inflammatory agents? really? i know what i see on my skin--it's an excellent visible marker of inflammation. and it is disappearing faster than ever before with the help of those two foods. i think you are most definitely mistaken with those two foods on your list. i have four auto-immune diseases. (yikes!, huh?) the first to manifest? psoriasis. now, while i’ve cursed the psoriasis for 25 years, i’ve also come to regard it as a marker of inflammation. that is to say: when my psoriasis is red, inflamed and painful, i know something is going on *inside.* so i’ve been making gradual changes to my diet for the past couple of years and making note of what works and what doesn’t. (and for the record, one of my other auto-immune diseases is Multiple Sclerosis, so…i’m pretty clear on when things have *really* spiraled out of control). i’ve drastically reduced or eliminated entirely processed sugar, foods with a high-glycemic index (bread, potatoes, corn, white rice) and increased my fruits/vegetable intake to a minimum of 6 servings/day. all of that has helped quite a lot; my psoriasis wasn’t getting too out of hand, but it was still there.

so that’s about the eggs. the other thing i changed?

i added a whole apple to my morning oatmeal. i eat organic oatmeal, no sugar added. so, with some cinnamon and a whole apple in my oatmeal, that’s my entire breakfast.

so, with all due respect, i must ask: eggs and apples as inflammatory agents? really? i know what i see on my skin–it’s an excellent visible marker of inflammation. and it is disappearing faster than ever before with the help of those two foods.

i think you are most definitely mistaken with those two foods on your list.
