About Glow: The Dermatologist's Guide To A Whole Foods
Product Description Fine lines and wrinkles. Dark spots. Loss of elasticity. Is there anything you can do to fight these common signs of skin aging? Absolutely. In this groundbreaking book, dermatologist and professor Dr. Rajani Katta reviews the latest research and shows you how to use this cutting-edge information to promote youthful, healthy skin. Your skin has amazing powers of repair and renewal. And the right foods can supercharge those powers: the right foods can activate DNA repair systems, quench free radicals, and protect against collagen damage. The right foods can combat the major forces that threaten your skin: oxidation, inflammation, and glycation. This book combines a straightforward, easy to understand breakdown of the science with practical, action-oriented advice. With over 35 recipes, you'll learn how to translate the latest research into action to achieve youthful, glowing skin. Review "Readers wanting to learn about the connection between healthy skin and diet can benefit from the approach taken in Glow. The author, Dr. Rajani Katta, dermatologist and educator, balances medical expertise and current research with an approachable style and includes immediately useful information...All in all, the connection of scientific research and practice to everyday life has been extremely well done, making for an inspiring source of information." - San Fransciso Book Review (Star Rating 5/5) "Katta...walks readers through the science of skin and the factors that contribute to common signs of aging (like crow's feet and sagging), clearly explains how different foods benefit the skin in different ways, and also delves into the connection between diet and skin conditions like eczema, psoriasis, and acne. Also included are more than three-dozen simple recipes for nutritious and appealing entrees, sides, and desserts, like honey ginger roasted carrots and peach almond custard tart... Accessible, evidence-based advice for those who want radiant skin" - Kirkus Reviews From the Author Q & A with Dr. Rajani Katta Who is this book for? Whether you're in your 20s or in your 70s, all of us want to maintain healthy, glowing, youthful skin. We have more research than ever showing us that the right foods and dietary patterns are an important part of that.

On page 140 of the book you'll find a list of the foods that are especially high in collagen-damaging compounds. Bacon is one of the worst offenders. So there's a right way and a wrong way to do each of these diets. This book highlights the keys to eating for younger skin, which can then be incorporated into any weight loss diet. It seems that there are more products than ever before to help keep skin clear and spot-free. Is diet really that important? Absolutely. I always talk about a holistic approach to maintaining healthy skin. Creams and serums and procedures may be a part of that, but they're only one part. Prevention, of course, is a major part, and while that includes protecting your skin from UV radiation, it also includes protecting your skin from the inflammation and glycation that can result from eating the wrong foods. You can also actively promote youthful, glowing skin by choosing the right foods. Foods that ar
