My brother is 21 years old and weighs 200 pounds. His heart is weak and I am afraid he is going to encounter problems in the future.
He is fond of eating junk, and LOTS of rice. He also gets NO exercise at all, as he is very insecure, not to mention lazy. He cannot wear athletic clothes because he has psoriasis all over his body.
Any advice? I am desperate and I want to help him.

In order for your brother to lose weight, HE needs to want to. All you can do is be supportive of the choices he makes and lead by example. Be active, and invite him to join you. Suggest new recipies that he might want to try because you really like them. Let him know that if he ever needs a friend, he's got one in you.

Have u linked where his psoraris(sp) is coming from?
What got me to take more serious my diet( a few years ago) and change my diet was the eczema I had was linked to candida overgrowth caused mainly by the large amounts of fructose(non-concentrated o.j.) I was drinking. The eczema improved when I minimized sugar and dairy especially.
Candida overgrowth can cause all kinds of physical ailments.
