The author, a former health and beauty journalist who also wrote "Vital Oils", sets out to show readers what they can eat to develop fresh living skin cells, rather than applying expensive beauty preparations to dead cells. The eating plan begins with a de-tox process designed to spring-clean the system and prepare the body for a healthier way of eating. There are chapters on grains, fruit, vegetables, herbs and oils, and the benefits they can bring. For example, fresh pineapple contains the enzyme bromalin, which digests surface bacteria and helps clear a spotty complexion, whereas wheat, with its high gluten content, can inhibit the absorption of valuable nutrients. The book also contains straightforward and inexpensive recipes with ideas for the whole family.
