Patient’s chronic ulcers heal with plant-based diet: case
The 63-year-old woman was willing to 'try anything' to treat the rare leg ulceration, so she read a book on whole-foods eating
A 63-year-old woman’s long-standing lower leg ulcerations from livedoid vasculopathy went into remission after she adopted a whole-foods, plant-based diet, according to a case report from New Zealand.
The authors noted that whenever the patient went off this diet over the past 3-4 years, her symptoms started to return.
