What is an anti age diet?
Meet a diet that not only melts pounds but also erases wrinkles!
Dermatologist, nutritionist and author of several New York Times bestsellers, Dr. Nichlas Perricone, developed what he calls a three-day nutritional facelift. That is a meal plan that promises dramatic changes in your appearance. Dr. Perricone’s three-day diet aims to remove puffiness, increase contours, and strengthen the jawline, which are some of the most noticeable and common signs of aging.
For best results, the diet recommends eating salmon twice a day to make DMAE, astaxanthin and salmon essential fatty acids work and increase skin radiance and firmness. Dr. Perricone also advises choosing wild Alaskan salmon instead of those farmed. If for any reason salmon does not suit you, you can replace it with poultry or tofu, although you will achieve the best results with salmon.
A three-day nutritional facelift is included in Dr. Perricone’s book ‘The Perricone Prescription’, which contains a 28-day meal plan with a wide selection of foods and recipes that are easy to prepare. Although he says you will notice the first results after only 3 days, he advises you to follow the full 28-day plan, and we bring you an example of a menu you can eat during the first 3 which are a great start!

Breakfast
- Omelet of 3 eggs and/or 110-170 g of grilled salmon. Smoked salmon on a three-day diet is not recommended due to salt intake.
- ½ cup of cooked oatmeal (not instant). Cooked oatmeal is an excellent source of fiber and carbohydrates with a low glycemic index.
- a slice of melon or 1/3 cup of fresh berries. Melon is very moisturizing for the skin and contains important antioxidants, and blueberries, blackberries, raspberries and strawberries are extremely rich in antioxidants.
- no juice, no coffee or toast. If you normally drink large amounts of coffee, drink black or green tea to prevent caffeine withdrawal.
- 230-350 ml of water
