Has anyone ever tried Marilu Henner’s Total Health Makeover program? I don’t need to lose weight but I thought perhaps her program would help other health issues. From what I’ve read about it, it sounds like it might help acne also. It sounds like an overall healthy anti-inflammatory diet and lifestyle program. I’m going to see if I can find her books at the library or perhaps used on Amazon for cheap. You can read about it at www.marilu.com .
I found all three of her Total Health Makeover books at the library: the main book that describes the whole program, a 30-day specific daily program, and a recipe book. The recipe book had like 10 pages that were ripped out of it though in the front section describing how to stock one’s pantry. I started reading the main book and I really like it very much. She has a very upbeat style and a cute sense of humor. I feel my spirits lifting already. I started to read the 30-day plan also because I want to get started on this as much as possible right away. One of the recommendations was to do dry skin brushing with a natural bristle skin brush, which I’m going to try. Also she said to break a sweat for at least 10 minutes. I have been very lazy about exercising, mainly because I’m so fatigued and also because I have been having back problems and also my right knee has been spontaneously dislocating very easily and it is painful. I am just going to have to force myself to do some kind of exercise though. I have to say that so far I would very much recommend her books, because it is lifting my spirits. She has testimonials from herself and others about skin clearing up also.
