    Summary: A pure-foods "youth-recovery" program designed to have you looking slimmer, healthier, and younger in just thirty days. To improve your skin and take years off your appearance, nothing works better (or faster) than the right foods. Dermatologist-internist Dr. David Colbert begins with a quick "reeducation" on how certain foods fuel your body: why processed foods slow you down and make you appear old, and how you can combat the effects of age with the health and beauty secrets of smart carbs, A+ fats, intelligent fiber, and star proteins. "True Food"--brilliant-colored vegetables, whole fruits, nutritious nuts, lean meat, and a variety of other flavorful items--can reverse the aging effects of sugar. In thirty days, you'll experience the entire range of benefits--from increased energy and heightened mental acuity to weight loss-that will have you on the road to lifelong good habits and health. Includes menus and recipes.--From publisher description.
