PERRICONE DIET - Dr. PERRICONE Shares Anti-Aging Secret DIET

The Perricone Diet is a trail-blazing discovery by Dr. Nicholas Perricone, who wrote the book The Perricone Prescription that emphasized the link of inflammation and water retention to human aging. While all other diets just strive to take off the pounds in your waist, the Perricone Diet does more because it aims to minimize refined sugars, saturated fats, and other high glycemic carbohydrates in your diet in order for you to lose weight AND prevent premature aging, wrinkles and other health problems. Like whoa, it's hitting two birds with one stone right?

Dr Nicholas Perricone, Perricone Diet

When entering the Perricone Diet program, you have to follow a 28 day food intake in order for you to increase your metabolism and cell rejuvenation. For impatient folks who can't sacrifice 28 days of agony, there's also the so called the 3 Day Nutritional Facelift in the Perricone Diet program wherein you can reap wonderful benefits like “feeling more energized”, “losing that puffiness around the face” and “eyes no longer bloodshot”.

Here's the 3 Day Nutritional Facelift Perricone Diet plan I found in Everydiet.com:

The following menu should be followed for 3 days. Protein should be eaten first. Note that the salmon should be wild, or at the least organic.
