Book Excerpt - FACE FOOD
FACE FOOD highlights that simple, tasty foods have the ability to flush your face with vitality, improve and change the quality and texture of your skin, reduce wrinkles and fine lines, increase firmness and combat premature aging.
While genetic factors play a major role in the way we age, so does the food that we eat. In fact our diet is one of the great anti-aging secrets to retaining or regaining beautiful skin. It’s all based on the basic principal that building and protecting collagen through the foods we eat is the foundation to healthy, youthful looking skin; as when we increase collagen, wrinkles begin to fade and skin regains its elasticity.
Dealing with faces every day as I have for many years, it is easy to see when skin has been deprived of nutrients. So whenever I recommend a skin solution I keep in mind that one of the most effective ways to protect and preserve our skin at any age involves eating the right skin renewing foods.
Many of the natural foods we eat hold age-defying vitamins and minerals that are essential to give the skin radiance, while supporting, hydrating and maintaining the health of the skin. They are also the key to building collagen.
You may ask why building collagen is so important. Simply because collagen is the protein in connective tissue that keeps the skin elastic. However, the fibres in these tissues can become weak and damaged through free radicals, which impact our skin both inside and out as a result of different lifestyle elements such as bad food, sun damage, smoking, pollution, excess alcohol, and the list goes on! However, collagen cannot be absorbed from a beauty cream as the molecules are too large to penetrate the skin’s cells. This means the most effective solution is either topically applying the right ingredients (see Face Value), or eating foods full of skin regenerating vitamins and minerals that naturally renew, stimulate and protect collagen.
The quick and easy recipes in this book are power packed with skin building ingredients to help your skin be the best it can be. For me cooking is not only a wonderful reminder that sharing food with those we love nurtures their health and skin from the inside out, but that the true essence of our beauty is in sharing the spirit of our humanity in all that we do.
My personal philosophy on B.E.A.U.T.Y. is…
Balance in our life unfolds from the inside out.
Enthusiasm lies within the way we think and feel about ourselves.
Acceptance is the path to making peace with ourselves and others.
Understanding ourselves gives us clarity and wisdom to know what we want, and importantly, what we don’t.
Trust attunes our heart and mind so we can nurture spontaneity and adventure in our lives, and see that…
You have what it takes to create the life and love you know you deserve and to never settle for anything less.
So while our skin is the largest organ in the body and we need to look after it, it is important to remain true to our beauty by never forgetting that laughter and humor play a major role in experiencing it and feeling it.

Q1. MOST PEOPLE THINK THAT LOOKING AFTER THEIR SKIN IS ABOUT SPENDING MONEY ON SKINCARE. WHY DO YOU BELIEVE THAT THE QUALITY OF OUR SKIN ALSO RELIES HEAVILY ON OUR DIET?
Great skin health comes as a direct result of what we feed it, with the skin boosting foods we eat and the nutrients we use topically to help protect and strengthen our skin.
The power of natural foods is that many of the most potent skin boosting nutrients can be eaten and others can be applied topically to counteract premature aging.
If we are serious about boosting the health of our skin and our overall health then we need to nurture ourselves in the truest sense and that starts with what we are putting in our mouths and the overall quality of our diet.
Q2. YOU HAVE WORKED WITH MODELS ACROSS THE GLOBE TO IMPROVE THEIR SKIN HEALTH. IS THEIR DIET A PART OF THAT?
For over three decades I have seen the power our diet has to change our skin in both the positive and the negative.
Nutrition is one of the most powerful ways to prevent premature skin aging, but also the best way to protect, revitalise and transform the quality and texture of your skin at any age. I put models on an eating plan that will tighten and brighten their skin within five days. I have also started ‘skin food’ programs in cancer wellness centres to help patients suffering from extreme skin dryness. This has shown that many can transform the hydration levels of the skin within a week by simply changing their diet.
The best part is that nutrition not only changes the look of our skin, but also contributes to our energy levels and our overall health. Nutrient rich foods open up a world of possibilities that can transform the quality of our lives, the texture of our skin and take years off the face, while still keeping our stomachs and taste buds satisfied.
Q3. WHY IS COLLAGEN SO IMPORTANT TO OUR SKIN HEALTH AND HOW DOES WHAT WE EAT SUPPORT US TO BUILD COLLAGEN?
Located within the dermis, collagen is the connective tissue that supports the skin's structure and is essential for healthy, youthful looking skin.
As we get older the body produces less collagen, which causes the skin to weaken and lose its elasticity and fullness. This means it appears thinner and wrinkles and fine lines start to appear.
There are a number of environmental factors that weaken collagen - smoking, pollution, sun and a poor diet, along with the daily stress we feel.
However, collagen cannot be absorbed from a beauty crème as the molecules are too large to penetrate the skin.
So to maximise skin health, we need to have an intake of foods that are rich in vitamins, minerals, anti-oxidants and amino acids, as these are the building blocks for collagen production.
Q4. WHY DID YOU NAME SO MANY ASPECTS OF YOUR WORK ‘FACE LIFTING FOOD’?
Preventing premature aging doesn’t need to be hard work. I love the impact that skin boosting food can have on our skin and our health. It literally has the capacity to give any person a nutritional face lift, so I called it Face Lifting Food.
When we started out people told me that the Face Lifting Food TV show might be ‘too healthy’ for people, but they underestimated people’s desire to eat food that is both tasty and good for you. Face Lifting Food now shows in more than 25 countries across the globe and sits alongside some of the best cooking shows in the world.
People tell me they love the recipes as they are delicious and easy to make. But they also love the fact that they while they eating for skin health, they are cooking food that the whole family can enjoy. This is what inspired me to turn the show into APPS that everyone can access at any time.
Once you know where to find the most powerful skin boosting vitamins, minerals and anti oxidants in food, eating for skin health can become a very tasty experience.
