Lupus: Success Stories With WFPB
18 Nov 2020

In 2017, I met a friend at a hike that I had organized. She shared with me that she had lupus. So I told her about Whole Food Plant-Based guidelines. When I reached back home, I scoured the web for information about lupus and WFPB. Luckily, I chanced upon the success stories of Dr Brooke Goldner and Jill Harrington. Two years later, I found additional success stories. I assembled them into readable articles for my friend so that she is inspired to look into WFPB guidelines.
Lupus Success Stories

Dr Brooke Goldner: An amazing personality! Please watch her videos to see what I mean. She's a doctor who combines her skills as a physician and psychiatrist, along with her personal experience tackling lupus to help patients with autoimmune conditions.

Dr Christina Miller:

Joyce Hale: I came to know of Joyce Hale through an hour long talk she gave in 2018. That talk is powerful! Joyce is a great speaker. In the talk, she narrates her personal struggles, her discovery of WFPB guidelines and how she adopted them step by step, thereby experiencing benefits! Highly recommended.

Jill Harrington: Recovered from lupus in 1995 through water-only fasting at TrueNorth Health Center, followed by adoption of strict food guidelines centered around Whole Food Plant-Based system. Jill also wrote a book: 'The Lupus Recovery Diet' (211 pages, 2007).

Dr Ro Ho: A Family Practice Physician who recovered from lupus by adopting a Whole Food Plant-Based diet.

Jami Heymann: In an article at Forks Over Knives, Jami narrates her personal story. She writes, "Today, nine months after my diagnosis, I feel totally healthy and normal, with no symptoms of lupus."

What Did I Learn?

Eye Opener! Listening to all the personal story videos in the articles below was an eye opener for me. For the first time, I came to realize the gravity of the situation: lupus is a difficult condition to tackle! Patients who heal themselves via Whole Food Plant-Based guidelines experience nothing short of a miracle! The good news is that many people report complete cessation of symptoms! Even blood tests confirm that the disease no longer exists.
