Beauty From the Inside Out
Advertisement
Speaking at a conference in New York, nutritionist Ann Louise Gittleman looked out at all the young faces in the audience and couldn't help but wish that she'd known at their ages what she knows now: "Protecting our beauty begins in our youth and continues throughout every age and stage of life." That's when the idea for her The great beauty cover-up Not so "good" intentions Beauty 101
Clear out those winter beauty blockers If you stick to this regime, Gittleman says that in three days to two weeks, "your skin will clear up, your hair will shine, your eyes will become brighter, your brain will be sharper, your digestion will become more efficient and your energy will go through the roof!"
Gittleman's Top Ten Tips for Ageless Beauty
French artist and sculptor Rodin said, "Beauty is but the spirit breaking through the flesh." Gittleman agrees, and she offers ways to nurture the soul as well as nourish the body. Pamper yourself. Try St. John's wort or chaste tree berry for depression. Use flower essences to ward off anger, grief, guilt or stress. Practice connected breathing, meditation and affirmation. "You will soar through life with a newfound sense of freedom," says Gittleman, "and explore the world of possibilities that are ready and waiting for you."
Ann Louise Gittleman, M.S., C.N.S., is the former director of nutrition at the renowned Pritikin Longevity Center and a leading nutritionist. She is the author of nearly 20 health books, including the bestselling Beyond Pritikin and Before the Change. Gittleman lives in Bozeman, Montana.
Every year women spend billions on cosmetics in hopes that they will look younger, smoother, firmer and healthier. "But camouflage isn't the answer," says Gittleman. "True beauty is an inside job!" Beauty problems - wrinkles, acne, dry hair, splitting nails and cellulite - are simply SOS signals about inward imbalances. According to Gittleman, if you take heed, you can balance your body's checkbook to look and feel better than ever.
Still, most of us are making an effort to stay healthy: we try to eat fat-free, avoid lots of red meat and protect our skin with lotions and creams. But, Gittleman explains, our best intentions are often the very culprits of premature aging. She says, for example, that we shouldn't wear sunscreen every single time we're outside - going without occasionally allows us to absorb the UV rays necessary for our bodies to synthesize much-needed vitamin D.
Gittleman's keys to a powerhouse beauty foundation
When you think of detox and body cleansing, you probably think of fasting. Don't despair! Gittleman's Living Beauty Detox Program, which is organized by season, includes eating and cleansing your way to beauty in these cold winter months. Paying particular attention to nurturing the kidneys and adrenal glands, this season's detox plan encourages adequate rest, relaxation and meditation; daily cups of nettle tea; warm foods (apple-cranberry sauce, stuffed peppers, organic hamburger); ginger, sauerkraut and apple cider vinegar; a "Living Beauty Elixir" twice a day (eight ounces of unsweetened cranberry juice with two teaspoons of a green superfood mixture); lots of room temperature water; wearing loose, layered, natural clothing; and light to moderate exercise for 20-30 minutes at least three times per week.
