DETAILS
Yan Valle is a vitiligo survivor who investigates the hidden truth about his devastating skin condition. After a harrowing breakup, he finds refuge in the technological underground. He never expected to become CEO of Vitiligo Research Foundation and to make a choice that will change one hundred million human lives.
On this upstream journey to the mysterious source of white spots, Yan relentlessly looks for clues in the body and environment. He will bring together shamans, scientists, celebrities and top executives to share valuable secrets and solve the puzzle.

Dashing from the root cause to a future lifestyle, the author reveals what you really need to know and what you must avoid, in order to manage this weird, complicated disease.
What this book will do for you:- Save you the countless hours spent searching the web for information, only to realize most of it's worthless.
- Save all the time and effort spent on seeing non-specialist doctors who can't help you.
- Save the thousands of dollar spent on bogus supplements, snake oil cures and confusing research papers.

- How to identify potential triggers and everyday household items you should avoid.
- The environmental factors and stress-related issues that can cause vitiligo.
- Common treatment strategies and protocols. Which one is good for you?
- Frequent treatment mistakes and how to fix them.
- Natural remedies and diets for vitiligo: what’s true, what’s not.
- How to break the vicious Catch 22 cycle.
In this unique book, Yan Valle – author, campaigner and CEO of Vitiligo Research Foundation – will guide you through symptoms, decipher medical jargon and explore treatments, so you can choose the proper therapy for yourself – or knowingly abstain from it.
