Hi jennifer1303,
you should avoid stress and harmful diet as they trigger your disease. I hope following tips may help you:
- Eat more healthy foods. Try to avoid processed or fried foods. Instead, eat more salmon, broccoli, tuna, flaxseed and fruits
- Avoid stress. You can do anything you like to avoid stress, including watching films, reading interesting books, listening to music, or hanging out with your friends. Also, remember to reduce your work if you're tired.
- Get enough sleep. Lack of sleep can trigger flares, so you need to sleep at least 8-9 hours each night.
- Do exercise. Exercise may be difficult for you on the first day. You can try some gentle exercises like yoga, Tai Chi or walking
- Find support. If you're under pressure, you should find a trusted person to share your issues.
Lupus flaresmay come and go many times, so you should have healthy lifetyle habits and diet to reduce flares. Try to avoid stress and harmful diet. Also, you may take supplements to boost your health.
