my review

This is an excellent book and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their health

Excellent book, and worthwhile recommendations

I highly recommend this book to anyone seeking to improve their eating habits as well as their skin. Most of the book deals with the effect of diet and supplements on the body, and gives specific recommendations as to which foods and supplements have the greatest healthy and anti-aging benefits. As well, it also approaches the topic of aging in a very well balanced way. For instance, Perricone also stresses the important effects of exercise, sleep, skin care, and lifestyle choices on ones overall health and aging. The Three-Day Facelift outlines an easy three day meal plan to follow to reduce inflammation. The plan is uncomplicated to follow, and the foods he recommends are easy to prepare. I followed this for 3 days and felt energetic and my skin glowed. I repeat this program whenever I need a pick me up (or I want my skin to look great!). This advice in this book are definitely something that I have modified my lifestyle around becasue it is effective, sensible and something that I feel is beneficial to my overall health, in addition to my skin. I HIGHLY recommend this as a read for anyone looking to improve their general health and eating habits with some truly impressive benefits!

There aren't enough words to say how WONDERFUL!!!

I am 33 and first saw Dr.Perricone on Oprah. Everyone had great results, but the patients were much older. I don't have a concern at this time with wrinkles, but my skin is glowing and I rarely need make up. I have lost 75 pounds TWICE on this diet - I used it after I had my 2 children and now I am skinny again! I eat 5 times a day on this plan and am always full!!! My friends and even strangers ask me how I look so good so often that I had to Xerox his diet and keep copies in my purse to pass out! I am going to write his office next to thank him.

TURNING BACK THE CLOCK

Through Dr. Nicholas Perricone Perricone millions have become familiar with such scientific names as peptides and neuropeptides, which he maintains give new life to skin and hair, aid in heart health, and even decrease the risk of certain forms of cancer.

"Wrinkled, sagging skin is not the inevitable result of growing older," Dr. Perricone has declared. "It's a disease, and you can fight it. You can look your best, feel your best, and enjoy beautiful skin and optimum health every day of your life, provided you start right now. And you don't need expensive, invasive plastic surgery to do it."

The host of several well-watched PBS programs, Perricone's credentials are impressive: a degree in Medicine from Michigan State University, an internship in Pediatrics at Yale University School of Medicine, and certification by the American Board of Dermatology.

After more than two decades of study Dr. Perricone emphatically declares that "a high protein, low carbohydrate diet full of salmon, fresh blueberries, cantaloupe and spring water can help slow and even reverse the aging process." In other words the clock can be turned back.

Is there an accompanying product line? Of course. Among his best selling items are his "Advanced Face Firming Activator," long a favorite of beauty editors and celebrities, and "Ceramic Skin Smoother,"a proprietary finishing serum treatment formulated by Dr. Perricone that helps to protect against the visible effects of environmental stresses while preparing your face for makeup"

Similar in tone to his later books, Perricone's offers pretty straight forward stuff, a bit like a lecture. Robin Webb gives an able, distinct reading.
