04.45.01 Diet
Eat healthy! No dieting for now, because your body needs nutrients to replenish those that you are losing through your skin. Go heavy on the vegetables and fruits and fresh foods. Avoid salty items like potato chips which can cause edema and have no nutritional value. Eat plenty of lean meat to be sure you are getting adequate amounts of protein. If you feel you need professional help and advice about nutrition, consider visiting a nutritionist. But do take along information about PRP, because chances are slim to nothing that he/she will have ever heard of this disease. You might even want to print out the information in this article and mail it to both the nutritionist and your other physicians, like eye and ENT, before your next visit.
