The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet Personal Daily Journal: A Diet Journal to Keep You Focused on Your Weight-Loss Goals

I like Dr. Perricone and his products. They're expensive, so I don't have many, but what I do have is quality and consistent. This book is packed with information and scientific evidence. It's all broken down into comprehensive chapters and gives very detailed informatin on why should be eating the specific foods. What I'm finding trouble with is incorporating it into my hectic lifestyle. I bought the workbook along with the book and that helps! The book is seperated into three sections: "The inflamation-fat connection," "The Three Steps," and then "The Plan." Dr. Perricone goes into the history of food and disease in American and while that sounds depressing, he actually peppers in positive and inspring ways to look at eating and health. It is inspriring and fascinating to read about inflammation and the pro-inflammatory effects on our bodies. Not only covering weight losss and health, Dr. Perricone explores wrinkles and how what we eat contributes to what our skin looks like. He gives choices and lists what fruits, grains, fish, etc. are good for our skin and while we can't turn back the clock - we can improve the elasticity and skin texture. I'm still learning about the supplements, but he gives detailed explanation of the benefits both inside and outside our bodies. If you're looking for an informational book with lots of scientific studies to back it up, I highly recommend this book.

I found this companion volume quite useful in managing the program outlined in the The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet.
