Millions of women and men have restored youthful radiance, smoothness, and suppleness to their skin through Dr. Nicholas Perricone’s advice, care, and transformative eating plan–and all with the welcome yet unexpected benefit of losing excess weight along with the wrinkles! Building on this discovery, Dr. Perricone breaks new ground with his trademark anti-inflammatory program based on the foods, supplements, and lifestyle changes with the proven ability to accelerate fat loss by increasing metabolism and building and maintaining muscle mass.

Americancivilwar.com Review |
In The Perricone Weight-loss Diet, the father of the Inflammation Theory of Aging reveals the role of internal micro-inflammations, caused mainly by additive-packed foods and a sedentary lifestyle, not only in accelerated aging, but also in unwanted weight gain. The good news he shares is: it is possible to slow down the clock, clear the skin, and shed the pounds by following a diet of whole foods and natural supplements, and by progressively adopting an "anti-inflammatory lifestyle", including quality sleep and stress-reducing activities (pet lovers will especially appreciate the passage on the healing power of pets.)
If Dr. Perricone’s division of high- versus low-glycemic index foods, and healthy (Omega-3-rich) versus unhealthy fats, doesn't especially sound like breakout news, he has to be credited for his uniquely convincing way of (re-) laying out these dietary principles, and for incorporating them into a global plan to achieve better health and weight loss. "Treat yourself well and the weight will come off," he suggests. And this anti-alarmist, anti-paternalistic, and confident delivery (he doesn't fear complimenting competitor Tammi Flynn on her sensible Three-Apple-a-Day Plan), paired with his stellar success record in the health field (The Perricone Prescription; The Perricone Promise), forces your attention.
Readers will dive effortlessly into the easy-flowing chapters, from "Breaking the Inflammation-Fat Connection" to "The 10 Top Food Groups for Permanent Weight Loss" (headed up with mouthwatering wild Alaskan salmon), to Perricone's signature threefold plan, which he promises will show dramatic results in as little as 14 days. Complete with a full 14-day meal plan, detailed nutritional information for each recipe, a seafood safety guide, and a supplement and organic food retailer guide, The Perricone Weight-loss Diet will naturally find its place on the eye-level shelf of your home library.-- Nathalie Farage Americancivilwar.com Exclusive Video

GREAT, BUT NOT JUST FOR WEIGHT LOSS |
|
I've maintained a low carb diet for many years to deal with diabetes as well as some other issues. The Perricone weight loss diet is not just healthy for weight loss, but for improving health, in my opinion. It is a lower carb type of eating plan, but it has an emphasis on eating foods that contribute to longevity. It's anti-inflammatory and it's excellent for bringing blood sugar under control as well. For me it's proved to be a fantastic resource and a healthy lifelong diet. |

Perricone Diet- Great Info and... |
I read the book, well written and informative and started the eating plan today. You do NOT have to buy the skin care line, or his over-priced versions of the supplements. I got most (not all) of the supplements locally for about $75.00 for a 2 month supply. That easily replaces mindlessly eating junk at $32.00 a month. And since most of my misc. medical stuff is inflammatory related, I will be happy to get relief! A friend did this and said she had a big change after 4 weeks, energy-wise, plus more. AND you DON'T have to eat just FISH. There's lots of ideas/recipes for lean chicken, turkey and vegetarian dishes. If you can cook (or not), it's not that hard...
Evidently Perricone sold his business a while back, hence no new books. I also couldn't find any active online support groups, etc. Oh well...
