THE PERRICONE PROMISE

Narrated by Lloyd Sherr with professional clarity, the exciting message in this lesson is that controlling stress and diet can reduce the rate at which our organs age and improve the way we look and feel. Sugar causes inflammation at the cellular level, which leads to a devastating cascade of chemicals that damage our physical, emotional, and cognitive functioning. The culprits that drive sugar addiction are often cravings and unhappiness, which the author says are influenced by substance P, a hormone we can control with a variety of lifestyle and nutritional changes. Printable recipes and other helpful information on one of the CDs serve as added motivation for taking control and turning back our biological clock.
