THE ACNE PRESCRIPTION The Perricone Program for Clear and Healthy Skin at Any Age

A personalized introduction describing the author's interest and credentials begins this lesson on how to deal with acne in adolescents and adults. The advice is based on Perricone's three-pronged approach to healthier skin--diet, nutritional supplements, and topical treatments. Some of the information on specific supplements and topicals is in the form of potentially tedious lists, but the abridgment and narration are so skillful that one's interest persists. Up-to-date information about inflammation--a useful explanation for a whole host of problems--makes this lesson timely as well as powerful. This is information almost everyone will find interesting. Overall, it's an outstanding health audio for those concerned about their skin and appearance. T.W. (c) AudioFile 2004, Portland, Maine [Published: JUN/ JUL 04]
