Book Reviews of The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet Personal Daily Journal: A Diet Journal to Keep You Focused on Your Weight-Loss Goals
Book Review: Fan of Dr. Perricone, now if I could only follow the diet!
Summary: 4 Stars
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.

Summary of The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet Personal Daily Journal: A Diet Journal to Keep You Focused on Your Weight-Loss Goals
In the blockbuster book The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet, Dr. Nicholas Perricone presented a groundbreaking program for losing weight, maintaining muscle, and toning the skin by following his anti-inflammatory food plan. Now, in The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet Personal Daily Journal, Dr. Perricone provides a day-by-day motivating guide to everything you need to integrate this program into your busy life. Elegantly designed and easy to use, this daybook features? delicious menu plans
? easy recipes
? fat-burning secrets of the anti-inflammatory lifestyle
? tip of the day
? inspirational quotes from Dr. Perricone
? space to write down your own experiences as you transform into the new you
As Dr. Perricone has discovered, patients who keep a journal achieve the greatest results. Having a written report is a strong motivator and will make sure you are focused on your goals. So lose the fat, the wrinkles, and the years with The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet Personal Daily Journal, the perfect companion on your journey to a slim, healthy, and youthful body.
In The Perricone Weight-loss Diet, the father of the Inflammation Theory of Aging reveals the role of internal micro-inflammations, caused mainly by additive-packed foods and a sedentary lifestyle, not only in accelerated aging, but also in unwanted weight gain. The good news he shares is: it is possible to slow down the clock, clear the skin, and shed the pounds by following a diet of whole foods and natural supplements, and by progressively adopting an "anti-inflammatory lifestyle", including quality sleep and stress-reducing activities (pet lovers will especially appreciate the passage on the healing power of pets.)
If Dr. Perricone?s division of high- versus low-glycemic index foods, and healthy (Omega-3-rich) versus unhealthy fats, doesn't especially sound like breakout news, he has to be credited for his uniquely convincing way of (re-) laying out these dietary principles, and for incorporating them into a global plan to achieve better health and weight loss. "Treat yourself well and the weight will come off," he suggests. And this anti-alarmist, anti-paternalistic, and confident delivery (he doesn't fear complimenting competitor Tammi Flynn on her sensible Three-Apple-a-Day Plan), paired with his stellar success record in the health field (The Perricone Prescription; The Perricone Promise), forces your attention.
Readers will dive effortlessly into the easy-flowing chapters, from "Breaking the Inflammation-Fat Connection" to "The 10 Top Food Groups for Permanent Weight Loss" (headed up with mouthwatering wild Alaskan salmon), to Perricone's signature threefold plan, which he promises will show dramatic results in as little as 14 days. Complete with a full 14-day meal plan, detailed nutritional information for each recipe, a seafood safety guide, and a supplement and organic food retailer guide, The Perricone Weight-loss Diet will naturally find its place on the eye-level shelf of your home library.-- Nathalie Farage
