My daughter had some chronic health problems when she was a young teen and she started changing the way she was eating and it was helping her...something as simple as eggplant has a chemical in it that is healthy for people who have brain seizures....spices like curry powder, ginger, are natural anti-inflammatory and pain-killers, green tea can help with stress by raising alpha brain waves and creating a relaxed-alert state,salmon & other fatty fish vs. red meats will help raise moods and help with arthritis, etc. I'd bake her "french fries" coated with a little olive oil and she stopped getting fries from restaurant...she was told by two professionals that reheated cooking oils can break down the DNA in the body and her test results proved it, unraveled DNA linked to lupus breaks down connective tissue and causes a host of problems.
