the BEAUTY detox solution.

i am a crazy, health-obsessed,
vegetarian, morning coffee only,
green tea {all day},
supplement taking,
admitted sweet lover.

i am a You Are What You Eat 

kinda-girl.

i LOVE good food!
and have an admitted daily craving
for dark chocolate and baked goods.

having said all of that,
i read everything i can get my hands on
about preventative nutrition and holistic healing.



i just purchased the book The Beauty Detox Solution 

by celebrity nutritionist Kimberly Snyder  from amazon

and can't wait to implement all of the ideas and recipes. 

the book focuses on a holistic approach that focuses 

on increasing energy, balance and healing of the body at the cellular level. 

the lifestyle concentrates on eating a largely plant-based diet 

that promotes healthy, glowing skin. 

the author believes that a heathy digestive system is essential to beauty. 

in order to rejuvenate cells and fight aging you need 

to cleanse your digestive tract 

by eating probiotic-rich foods daily.



Kimberly as also been featured on Dr. Oz, he, along with Dr. Weil,
are my go-to doctors for medical and nutrition advice,
so i made sure that at least one of them liked
what she had to say before i purchased her book.

i have already added the smoothies {below} to my daily routine,
the rest of the things I already eat pretty often,
but thought i'd share them with you.

here are a few daily beauty recommendations:

take a daily probiotic

eat cabbage {a great source of vitamin C for brightening}

eat a 1/4 of raw sunflower seeds daily {vitamin E, delays aging}

enjoy avocado {moisturizes}
drink a glowing green smoothie

drink lemon water every day for beauty {vitamin C hydrates}
have Rooibos tea {caffeine free}

add organic cucumber {high in silica for hair and nails} to salads

and celery {diuretic} you can add almond butter if you'd like

snack on almonds

add kale to soups, smoothies and salads 

add cinnamon to baked goods

eat ginger

make this smoothie for beautiful hair

and this wrinkle-fighting smoothie for beautiful skin
