5.0 out of 5 stars It worked for me!, May 3 2005
By Miss Jenn - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Clear Skin Prescription: The Perricone Program to Eliminate Problem Skin (Paperback)
I have never had serious skin problems- just the occassional outbreaks that I thought were normal for a woman my age with eczema. Now I know that my diet contributed to my skin problems. How do I know this? I can see the difference on my entire body.

I did not go on the day by day prescribed diet he offers. Instead I read what was good and not so good and modified my diet and many of my favorite old recipes accordingly. Not only have I lost weight, but my cellulite (which I even had at 100lbs) is all but gone! My face looks clearer and I have stopped using foundation because I actually like the way my complexion looks naturally now.

Maybe, as one person said, there isn't a plethora of studies to back his theories up but the "experts" haven't been able to agree for a long time what is good for you. This diet advice actually makes sense, which is nice for a change. My body doesn't care if this has been conclusively proven or not and frankly, neither do I. I sleep better, I feel better and I look as good as I feel. That's good enough for me.

If you've tried other things without much success, you might as well try this one too. The food tastes great, you never feel deprived, and you just might get the same results as lots of other satisfied customers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just pick one book, May 16 2005

This review is from: The Clear Skin Prescription: The Perricone Program to Eliminate Problem Skin (Paperback)
Actually, all of Dr. Perricone's books should have a 5 star rating, but please, don't waste your money buying all of his books like I did. I liked the first one so well that I bought all of his other books. I thought there'd be some updated info, maybe some new recipes. They are all basically the same book, some word for word, with different titles. One book is definitel worth the money though. You feel better and look better in as little as 3 or 4 days just by following the diet without the supplements. I'm a bit leery of the expensive supplements. His supplements seem overpriced. Maybe there really is a difference in quality, I don't know. If I'm going to shell out hundreds of dollars a month for supplements, they'd better make a BIG difference, and one that I can see and feel right away.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Like It, Jan 6 2005
By Savethetoys - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Clear Skin Prescription: The Perricone Program to Eliminate Problem Skin (Paperback)
I picked up a copy of this book just before Christmas. No I cannot afford the Facial products he sells but I went to my local health food store and spotted items with similar ingredients.

No I have not used the recipes either, but he lays out a good explanation of what supplements are needed, why, what foods contain them, what they do, etc.

He also gives a list of inflammatory and inflammatory foods. And something I have found with this diet, I can find things to eat that are tasty!

A lot of salmon, eggs, brocolli, spinach, avocados, pomegranite juice, almonds, green salads, olive oil, oatmeal, green tea....

You get the idea, he has given me some great stepping stones to get going. I have not altered my diet 100% but have added most of the foods, I did buy his supplements for skin to try for one month(the shipping is free) but you can go out and buy all of your own and he does list each supplement needed in the book.

Okay so progress? I have to tell you, applying Vitamin A to my acne has worked WONDERS, my skin is already so much better, it looks clear on my face and almost glowy!

And Im in my early 30s and had acne since I was a teen.

The recipes are not practical either for my situation, but you can be creative with many of the things he does list.
