The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet: A Simple 3-Part Plan to Lose the Fat, the Wrinkles, and the Years The Perricone Promise: Look Younger, Live Longer in Three Easy Steps Dr. Perricone's 7 Secrets to Beauty, Health, and Longevity: The Miracle of Cellular Rejuvenation The Wrinkle Cure The Perricone Prescription Personal Journal: Your Total Body and Face Rejuvenation Daybook Editorial Review: Book Description: Most people believe that sags, bags, and wrinkles -- on the face and body -- are inevitable. many people choose to temporarily circumvent these signs of aging with surgery, chemical peels, Botox injections, or laser treatments. The good news, according to research scientist and practicing dermatologist Nicholas Perricone, M.D., is that by following a simple program of diet, exercise, and skin care you can prevent and even reverse many signs of aging. The Perricone Prescription clearly and succinctly explains the rock-solid laboratory research behind Dr. Perricone's revolutionary theories, revealing that inflammation at the cellular level, precipitated by poor nutrition, pollution, sunlight, irritating skin-care treatments, and stress, is the single most powerful cause of the signs of aging. Dr. Perricone gives you the knowledge and the tools to fight that inflammation from the inside out, while at the same time decreasing the likelihood of heart disease, cancer, diabetes, arthritis, and a host of other degenerative diseases. Amazon.com: Healthy, vibrant skin depends more on what you put in your cheeks than what you rub on them, says dermatologist Nicholas Perricone. In The Perricone Prescription, fresh salmon tops the list of must-eat foods for total body rejuvenation. In fact, it is the star of Perricone's "Three-Day Nutritional Face-Lift," a convincing trial run for those who are a bit hedgy about committing to his 28-day diet and his supplement, skin care, and exercise regimen. Perricone's clear explanation about the adverse effects of inflammatory foods persuasively argues for shunning destructive, low-fat favorites (including watermelon, carrots, and bagels) and "culinary horrors" like pizza, pasta, and beef. Better to eat anti-inflammatory choices (those with a glycemic index of 50 or less) like salmon, halibut, and trout. While the book's mega list of recommended supplements is a bit hard to swallow (literally and figuratively), the supportive information Perricone supplies about each is certainly helpful. Another detailed grocery list--this time for topical anti-inflammatories--addresses skin care, and his wrinkle-free fitness plan promotes flexibility, muscle strength, and endurance. Finally, a handful of savory recipes offers respite to those who only know how to broil. So, despite all the salmon (and the angry kids whose parents have purged their high-glycemic kitchens), Perricone's prescription doesn't sound fishy at all. --Liane Emory Thomas by: Nicholas Perricone The Perricone Prescription Binding: Hardcover Dewey Decimal Number: 646.726 EAN: 9780060188795 ISBN: 0060188790 Label: Collins Living Manufacturer: Collins Living Number Of Items: 1 Number Of Pages: 288 Publication Date: August 01, 2002 Publisher: Collins Living Release Date: August 06, 2002 Studio: Collins Living Sales Rank: 72240 Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Excellent book, and worthwhile recommendationsI 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. ...

I saw this particular "diet" mentioned on a show I was watching about a month or so ago and the dietitian talked about how the "core" of the program is actually pretty solid but she thought, by and large the supplement and skin care regimen that he's created is "excessive" - I think she was one step away from saying it's just too much (money) to be spending and too much to be taking in terms of vitamins and other supplements. If you did everything Perricone said, you'd be taking about 20 vitamins and various other supplements and putting 4-7 lotions and topical creams on ...

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. Rating:  - TURNING BACK THE CLOCKThrough 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 ...
