Skin & Beauty

Healthy skin starts with a healthy body. If you would like to attain the healthiest skin and increase your skin’s natural radiance†, this plan will help you achieve it – naturally.

Helpful Hint: Print the program below and keep it on your fridge for easy reference.

Note: In order to achieve healthy skin, it’s vitally important to eliminate processed foods, including milk as studies show a direct link. Instead, opt for nutrient dense, unprocessed foods rich in antioxidants such as berries and green tea, as well as lycopene-rich tomatoes.

MORNING
Tip: Try to exercise first thing in the morning, including 30 minutes of cardio, with regular strength training and stretching. Not only will this improve your overall health, but it increases oxygen flow which promotes younger-looking, healthier skin. Remember to always check with your health care practitioner before beginning an exercise program.

BREAKFAST
A complete breakfast, including slow-burning carbohydrates, lean protein and healthy fats.

For example:

Skin-boosting smoothie: Add ½ cup or fresh of frozen berries, 1.5 cups of water (1/2 cup of 100% juice may also be used), 1 scoop of proteins+ (or proteins+ Instant Smoothie a day, or Vegan proteins+) with ½ cup of plain, low-fat yogurt to a blender. Mix for approximately 20-30 seconds and enjoy.

OR:

1 cup organic muesli or slow cooked oatmeal with ½ cup plain, low-fat yogurt, 1 scoop of proteins+, topped with mixed berries.

Additional Supplements
If supporting your skin’s natural radiance is your primary goal, take: multi+ daily glow with o3mega+ glow. †
If clear, healthy skin is your primary goal, take perfect skin† with multi+ daily glow. †

Mid-morning Snack
Enjoy a light snack containing a healthy carbohydrate, protein and fat.

For example:

A sliced apple with peanut or almond butter, a handful of almonds, or carrot sticks with hummus.

Optional Supplements: (preferably away from meals) If you experience the normal stress from daily activities, lack adequate nutrients, are exposed regularly to toxins and/or want to promote your own healthy aging, the following supplements can help: †

To reduce internal toxin build-up, include: continual cleanse. †

Read product labels for further instructions, however all of these supplements may be combined with no unhealthy side effects.

LUNCH
Opt for a lunch containing 40% carbohydrate, 30% protein and 30% fat.

For example:

A sandwich using 2 slices of 100% whole grain bread, topped with a lean protein (such as all-white chicken, wild salmon or tempeh), lettuce, tomato and mustard, with a large, colorful salad and olive oil/balsamic dressing.

OR:

1 grilled white chicken breast (fish or tempeh is also fine), with a large, colorful salad including lycopene-rich tomatoes, and olive oil/balsamic dressing. You can also add a ½ cup of brown, whole-grain rice or ½ sweet potato.

Dessert option: 2 squares of 70% dark chocolate or 3 healthy skin chocolate soft chews.

Tip: Try going for a quick walk outside (either before or after your lunch) to free your body and mind, while enjoying the outdoors.

Mid-afternoon
Snack

Enjoy a light and easy snack containing a healthy carbohydrate, protein and fat.

For example:

Carrot and celery sticks with hummus, 1 tbsp 100% peanut or almond butter with 2-4 whole grain crackers or a handful of mixed (raw) nuts with 1 cup of tomato juice.

DINNER
Opt for a dinner containing a lean protein, slow-burning carbohydrates and healthy fats. For example:

Grilled cold water fish (wild salmon, mackerel or light tuna)*, 1 cup of wild rice or other grains such as couscous or quinoa, with a colorful variety of vegetables, topped with olive oil/balsamic dressing.

*Instead of fish, you may substitute grilled chicken, extra-lean beef, grilled tofu or tempeh – so long as you get a healthy source of protein (equivalent in size to a deck of cards.)

Dessert option: 1 cup of non-dairy, unsweetened yogurt with 1 scoop proteins+ or 2 spelt-ginger cookies.

Tip: Chew your food slowly and diligently to promote optimum digestion and nutrient absorption.

EVENING
Try to go to bed no later than 11:00pm and get at least 7-8 hours of deep sleep.
