2 Clear Skin Solution Based upon a program I have developed in my practice over the past 15 years and did at world-renown spas Enjoy foods that nourish your skin from within and avoid foods that lead to skinflammation (skin problems such as acne, rosacea, eczema and premature/accelerated aging) Includes bring-the-spa-home-with-you techniques Clear Skin Solution Classes Class 1 - how to prepare for the 14 day program Class 2 - successfully starting the program, at home spa treatments that enhance the experience Class 3 - how to reduce one of the biggest triggers of skinflammation Class 4 - coming out of the program and the clear skin maintenance diet Class 1 We will cover How to Prepare for the 14 day program. Prepare your body. Shop and plan your menu. Get the most out of this program. Get support. Skinflammation Inflammation is the number one reason we have skin issues and age faster than we should. Internal inflammation leads to premature aging, uneven skin tone, skinflammation problems such as acne and eczema as well as low energy, chronic pain, hormonal imbalances and weight gain. In this program, we address skinflammation by eliminating and addressing the triggers for inflammation with specific dietary and lifestyle changes.

6 Foods to Eat Focus on Onions and garlic. Soaking and sprouting. High fiber foods. Herbs and spices. Fermented foods. Cruciferous veggies. Anti-inflammatory foods. Dietary Fiber Improves digestion, fat metabolism, blood sugar balance, nutrient absorption, and intestinal microflora balance Helps us feel full Decreases intestinal transit time (moves things along faster in our bowels) so we have less exposure to cancer inducing compounds in our bowels Increases weight and size of stools, which is healthier for the colon and helps prevent problems like diverticulitis and hemorrhoids Improves cholesterol Health experts recommend 25 to 30 grams of fiber per day, but most people get only around 10 grams or less. Sources of Fiber Vegetables Beans and Peas Whole Grains: Oats, Brown Rice, Quinoa Fruit How to Get Enough Fiber Ensure at least grams per day 6+ servings vegetables 1-2 servings fruit 1-2 servings whole grains

7 Tips Add slowly if not used to eating fiber Drink 6 8 glasses of water per day Cruciferous Vegetables Turnips, cabbage, broccoli, kale, Brussels sprouts, cauliflower, collards, mustard greens, radishes, and rutabaga Have anticancer properties, are nutrient-rich and low calorie Population studies show the higher intake of cruciferous veggies, the lower the rates of cancer especially prostate, lung, breast and colon cancers. CAUTION this vegetable family contains goitrogens which can interfere with thyroid function, especially when someone has low Iodine levels. Cooking usually inactivates these qualities. Onions & Garlic Nutrient-rich Sulfur compounds such as allicin Health-promoting properties released when cut or crushed Onions contain flavonoids such as quercetin (anti-inflammatory effects) Lowers blood sugar (allyl propyl disulfide) Antimicrobial properties Soaking and Sprouting Soaking and sprouting activates and increases nutrients (such as Vitamins A, B, and C), inactivates enzyme inhibitors, and makes the foods easier to digest. Choose raw nuts, seeds, grains, and beans. Any that are pasteurized and irradiated will not sprout. Soaking NUTS, SEEDS, GRAINS, AND BEANS: Place them in a large glass bowl or jar and cover with filtered water (about a 2:1 ratio) and ¼ - ½ tsp Celtic sea or Himalayan salt. Cover with a light cloth. After soaking, RINSE them thoroughly and drain.

8 You can use these non sprouts to make plant-based milk alternatives. Or cook soaked and rinsed grains immediately, following the packaging instructions. Note that soaked grains usually only need a 1:1 water/broth ratio to be cooked because they are already soaked with water. Herbs and Spices Garlic Turmeric Cinnamon Onion Ginger Rosemary Thyme Using these herbs and spices regularly in cooking can help reduce your risk for intestinal inflammation and leaky gut. Fermented foods Coconut or almond yogurt (unsweetened) Fermented veggies such as kimchi Fermented drinks (no sugar) Buy in health food store or make your own. Sugar Alternatives Stevia natural plant sweetener (MY FAVORITE) and does not affect blood sugar Xylitol alcohol sugar; does not affect blood sugar Maple syrup natural sweetener but affects blood sugar (avoid or use in small amounts) Honey natural sweetener but affects blood sugar (avoid or use in small amounts) DIET - What to include 6 or more vegetables Nuts and seeds 1-2 serving fresh fruit Gluten-free grains Organic - as much as possible Dairy-free alternatives Plenty of fiber Chicken, Turkey, Lamb and Wild Game (optional) Legumes
