Excerpt
from Chapter One
WHAT IF I WERE TO TELL YOU that we are on the threshold of a
revolution that can reverse the signs of aging? And that with this book in hand, by
following just three simple steps, you can start reaping those benefits today?
When I wrote The
Wrinkle Cure and The
Pericone Prescription, I introduced the Inflammation--Aging
Connection---the concept that inflammation at the cellular level is the single
most powerful cause of the signs of aging. That's not to mention the correlation
between inflammation and such chronic diseases as arthritis, diabetes, Alzheimer's,
cancer, and strokes.
The extensive research and the resulting solutions I introduced still hold
true today, and thousands of people have reported how much better they look and
feel after following my program.
I could have discontinued my research there. But I knew there was more to
learn. I knew that if inflammation was at the root of aging, something deeper must be able
to mediate that inflammation. That "something deeper" turns out to be
the biggest breakthrough in anti-aging medicine in years: protein-like substances in our
bodies called peptides and neuropeptides...
...Peptides and neuropeptides, like many substances in our bodies (think cholesterol)
can work both for and against us. The good news is that by following the program
in The
Pericone Promise, you can dramtically increase the positive effects of
anti-inflammatory peptides and neuropeptides and greatly decrease their negative
influences.
As a result, you will experience dramatic changes not only in the
way you look, but also in the way you feel. In just twenty-eight
days, you can erase what seems like ten years from your face and body. With The
Pericone Promise, you'll learn to help reverse the aging process and add many
more youthful years to your life.

Product Description:
The New York Times bestselling author of The Wrinkle Cure presents an astonishing program
to reverse the aging process--inside and out.
Dr. Nicholas Pericone has helped millions of people maintain
younger looking skin. But in order to truly look and feel younger, readers must preserve
the entire body, not just the skin. Now, Dr. Pericone reveals a groundbreaking, 28-day
program that promises to help readers stay young forever. The secret is neuropeptides, the
biggest breakthrough in anti-aging medicine. The book explains the science behind
neuropeptides and the incredible results that can be achieved by regulating and
controlling these chemicals in the body. Dr. Pericone reveals a structured program
designed to remove wrinkles, speed up metabolism and weight loss, and enhance mood, brain
function, and overall health. This three pronged attack on aging includes Dr. Pericone's
exclusive list of 10 superfoods to rejuvenate the body, revolutionary nutritional
supplements, and state-of-the-art topical applications. THE PERICONE PROMISE is the book
everyone must own--no matter what their age.
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
For women seeking complexion perfection, Dr. Nicholas Pericone is the name to know;
actress Courteney Cox counts herself among his many devotees. In The Pericone Promise,
he claims that his 28-day program will help stop and even reverse the aging process,
making anyone who follows his advice "look and feel ten years younger." Pericone
says the brain and the skin both start out as the same embryonic tissue, so it follows
that any efforts aimed at improving one's complexion will also improve one's memory and
overall sense of well-being.
To this end, he recommends a three-pronged approach: a very
specific 28-day diet; supplements taken morning, noon, and night; and his own line of
"topical" cosmetics, all aimed at boosting the body's levels of "peptides
and neuropeptides." These substances, according to pericone, are not only the
building blocks of the skin's collagen, but an integral part of the functioning of the
immune system, and may prevent inflammation in the body that's associated with such
illnesses as arthritis and heart disease.
Pericone's diet sensibly includes a "rainbow" of
fruits and vegetables and the liberal use of herbs and spices, and shuns any foods browned
or cooked at high temperatures. But unfortunately, some of the food combinations sound
less than appetizing (typical snack: "1-2 ounces sliced turkey or chicken breast, 3
olives, 3 strawberries, 8 ounces water"). His eponymous supplements and cosmetics are
also pretty pricey, but as far as pericone's fans are concerned, when it comes to putting
the brakes on the aging process, you get what you pay for. --Erica Jorgensen
