Introduction
With thousands of new beauty products hitting the shelves each year, it is no
wonder that the beauty industry is one of the most profitable and crowded
markets.
Products range in price as well as promise—luring us to buy into the idea of
perfection in a bottle, suggesting that we can erase time and aging and cure all
imperfections—under-eye circles, lines, blemishes, and various disorders of the
skin—with the latest concoction or treatment. We continue our current lifestyles
and cut costs on our grocery bills, opting for faster and cheaper choices, but
splurge on the personal care products that carry empty promises and fake
longevity.
Regardless of our expenditures in the beauty department, it is too often that
we feel inadequate and unbeautiful, yet hang onto the things keeping us from
achieving our goals. As you delve into these pages, the answers will unfold. May
you find that what is really holding you back from being your most beautiful self
is as simple as the food on your plate.
This book is designed to teach the importance of our dietary choices, how
they affect our internal balance, and how we can use food to our advantage and
naturally detoxify the body to deliver a beautiful and radiant complexion.
For both rapid and lasting results, I recommend reading this book from
beginning to end.
