Alongside creams and washes, a lot of people with psoriasis start asking about food and daily habits. In Psoriasis – Staying Clear, Leonie Mateer shares how she approaches that side of it after more than 25 years of living with psoriasis. It’s packed with food charts, the list of acidic foods she avoids, tips and recipes. This is the 92-page paperback follow-up to her first psoriasis book.

I was hesitant at first, but Leonie's book offered solutions I hadn't considered. My skin is clearer, and I feel hopeful for the first time in years. Truly…
Abigail V.I was always self-conscious about my skin. Now, thanks to this book, I feel more confident.
Charlotte S.Clear skin, finally! :)
Sophia L.When you live with psoriasis, the questions don't stop at the bathroom cabinet. What should I eat? What should I avoid? How do I manage when I'm travelling? These are the everyday decisions people want someone to talk through honestly.
Leonie Mateer has been there. She lived with psoriasis for more than 25 years, and by her own account red, scaly plaques once covered 75% of her body. Psoriasis – Staying Clear is her second book on the subject. The back cover describes it as her account of how she maintains her skin day to day, with researched topics, tips and recipes.
Leonie's food-focused approach: an alkaline/acidic food chart, her list of acidic foods to avoid, how she tests her pH and recipes. There are also chapters on moisturising, baking soda, liquid chlorophyll and travelling with psoriasis, plus her ten best tips.
No. Leonie Mateer writes from personal experience, not as a medical professional. That's the appeal for many readers: it's the routine of someone who has lived with psoriasis for decades, told in her own words.
Food is the centre of it, but not the whole book. It also covers moisturising, travel and the day-to-day habits she keeps.
No. This book shares Leonie Mateer's personal experience and approach rather than individual medical advice. If you're considering changing prescribed treatment or making significant changes to how you manage your psoriasis, discuss that with your doctor or other appropriate health professional.
