Welcome to our new Blog!! It is very exciting and we are looking forward to have some great interactive conversations with our readers. Myself, Ananda Mahony and Roechelle Williams will be chatting with you about heaps of great natural skin stuff!!

Most of our regular newsletter readers know that I am passionate about skin nutrition and there are some basics foods that I always avoid; inflammatory foods such as too much sugar, saturated and trans fats and packaged foods. So generally my diet is good. However, after doing Karen Fischer’s book “The Healthy Skin Diet” I have made a whole lot of changes to the way that I eat. I confess the reason I made the changes was mostly because my skin looked so much better – clear, even toned, glowing (so I am told) and so much more hydrated but also because I felt so good.

The nuts and bolts of the dietary principles that Karen recommends are similar to what I have recommended to skin care clients but the definitely advantage of Karen’s program is so easy and simple to use. For me this means that some of the principles I have been following for the last 4 weeks will be lifetime principles. One I will tell you about is “green water”. Karen recommends adding a teaspoon of liquid chlorphyll to your water (I used Grant’s Liquid Chlorphyll from the health food store). Chlorphyll is a natural detoxifying agent and is also excellent for reducing body odours – foot, underarm etc. It also tastes good which I think it actually the peppermint oil in the chlorphyll but I add it to my waterbottle and make sure I drink at least 600mls of “green water” a day.

Karen has put out a book obviously called “The Healthy Skin Diet” which we now have available on-line.
