Books
This section may be written like an advertisement. If so, please help rewrite this section from a neutral point of view. (October 2008)Perricone has written several books. These all take a similar "three-tiered" approach to skin problems. The three tiers are diet, supplements, and topicals. The books share some general recommendations, but each contains unique material.[edit]Forever Young: The Science of Nutrigenomics for Glowing, Wrinkle-Free Skin and Radiant Health at Every AgeDr. Perricone explains nutrigenomics, an emerging field linking nutrition and longevity, and describes an approach to activate age-reversing biological activity with "superfoods" like wild salmon, watercress, chia seeds, barley grass, cinnamon, cocoa); and supplements (e.g., vitamins K and D, astaxanthin, Pycnogenol).[edit]Ageless Face, Ageless MindDr. Nicholas Perricone discusses AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products). Dr. Perricone explains potential methods to fight against AGEs with a three-part plan of attack that includes a nutritional program, targeted supplements, and new topicals. There is no evidence for the efficacy of his claims[citation needed].[edit]7 Secrets to Beauty, Health and LongevityTaking a holistic approach that taps into recent scientific developments, Dr. Nicholas Perricone argues that cellular metabolism can be increased to stay healthy, strong, and energetic, while keeping skin soft, smooth, and supple. He claims that this can help reverse osteoporosis, restore bone structure and muscle mass, revitalize brain cells, reduce the chances of heart disease and cancer, elevate mood, manage blood sugar, and slim down and stay trim.[edit]The Perricone PromisePublished in 2004, The Perricone Promise offers a new theory of aging circulating around neuropeptides, and focuses on an extensive diet. He claims that the diet can be helpful in losing weight and smoothing wrinkles, as well as improving one's mood and decelerating aging. New topical recommendations are also included, the primary one being a neuropeptide-based serum exclusively sold by Perricone's company that currently costs $570 per bottle (a 3-month supply), far more than any of Perricone's other products.[edit]The Acne PrescriptionPublished in 2003, The Acne Prescription is a follow-up to The Perricone Prescription targeted at those who are suffering from acne, especially (though not exclusively) those who have older, drier skin that does not respond well to treatments intended for oily adolescent skin. The book is particularly notable for attacking the widely held opinion in the dermatological community that there is, with few exceptions, no correlation between diet and acne, high intake of iodine is an acknowledged exception. Perricone claims that foods do have anti-inflammatory (and therefore anti-acne) and pro-inflammatory effects; which foods fall into which category is somewhat counterintuitive. For example, apples are in the anti-inflammatory food list, while bananas are considered pro-inflammatory. This book's paperback version was released under the title "Clear Skin Prescription" in 2004.[edit]The Perricone PrescriptionPublished in 2002, The Perricone Prescription recommends a "rejuvenating" program of diet, exercise, and skin care that is intended not only to improve one's appearance, but also to increase energy and to reduce the risk of several major health problems, including heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Many of the recommendations, such as a diet high in fish, are repeated from The Wrinkle Cure. The book became a #1 New York Times bestseller.[edit]The Wrinkle CurePublished in 2001, The Wrinkle Cure suggests a diet and products that can allegedly slow, or even reverse, the visible aging process. Some of his most notable recommendations are a diet high in salmon (primarily for its omega-3 fatty acids), supplementation of lipoic acid, and topical application of Vitamin C ester and DMAE.[edit]The Perricone Weight-Loss DietPublished in 2005, The Perricone Weight-Loss Diet describes how a version of the face-lift diet introduced in previous books can also be helpful in losing weight without losing body tone. New supplement regimens are introduced along with an updated version of the salmon-rich Perricone diet, as well as several new recipes.[edit]List of booksPerricone, N. V.
