Three Day Nutritional Facelift

Three Day Nutritional Facelift™ 

N.V. Perricone, M.D. 

The promise of a visible difference in your looks in just three days may seem too good to be true.  But if you eat the wrinkle-free way for even a short period of time, you will experience dramatic changes not only in how you look but how you feel.  I recommend the Three Day Nutritional Face Lift as the perfect way to jumpstart the 28-Day plan—this will allow you to see a drop in weight and visible results in your skin right away. 

The three day face lift aids in the elimination of puffiness, increases contours, firmer jaw line, etc.  You must eat salmon twice a day for the ideal effects of the DMAE, astaxanthin and the essential fatty acids in the salmon to take effect. This will increase radiance, glow and firmness to the skin.  Wild Alaskan Salmon is far superior to farm-raised salmon. 

If you do not eat salmon, go right to the 28 program although you will not see the dramatic results in the first three days as you will with this 3 day face lift.   

Breakfast 

• 3 Egg Omelet and/or a 4 – 6 oz  Grilled Salmon
  (I do not recommend smoked salmon or lox on the three day diet because of the salt intake)

  (great source of fiber, low glycemic carbohydrates)
