Product Description

Product Description
Your skin reflects your health, so improving it from the inside out is vital. This practical guide outlines the diet and supplements that are crucial to correcting skin problems and rejuvenating the skin. Amonst many other things you will discover how diet can help you to detox for clear skin; conquer acne, cold sores and rashes; prevent skin cancer; heal psoriasis, eczema and dermatitis; and banish cellulite.

From the Author
Great looking skin from within
You’ve all heard the ‘chocolate gives you spots’ story, here we delve into the real imbalances underlying skin problems.

Your skin is more than a case for your body with some hair here, a few bumps and creases there – the stuff that keeps your insides in. As your largest organ, stretched out your skin would cover a double bed, and it weighs as much as a small dog. Yet some people are still surprised that sorting out their insides, balancing their diet and keeping healthy can go a long way to relieving skin problems, slowing down ageing and keeping them looking great.

Readers and journalists have praised the book for its practicality and clarity, not to mention that it is actually an interesting read. Even the chapters on the background to internal skin care cut through any scientific jargon and get straight to the point.

So if you’re up for knowing what’s really getting under your skin, read this book at any level: go straight to the chapter that tells you how to deal with your particular skin problem; take an in-depth look behind the scenes, for example why getting your gut healthy can help eczema; or – one for all of us – how to really slow down the creeping lines.

Just to give you a taster…

(REAL NAME)   
This book is really easy to read and understand. The suggestions made are straightforward and items pretty easy to source.
As with all Patrick Holford's book, it all makes sense.
