Summary: Over-Priced Snake Oil Salesman
Comment: I'm a physician. I checked Perricone's peer-reviewed publications in PUBMED. There were only four, the most recent in 1996 which showed a miniscule sun-protection factor of 2.4 for topical glycolic acid. This is a far cry from his exaggerated claims, partial truths, and out-right lies in this book. The five-star reviews titled "Fringe Benefits!" and "The Perricone Prescription" read like shills for Perricone's incredibly high-priced products. Go to his website's store (http://www.nvperriconemd.com/), where he has a 2 ounce bottle of topical Lipoic Acid for $95!! This is typical for his products. Better yet, eat a "Mediterranean diet", skip this book, and ignore his advice on supplements. He's rich enough already.

Summary: Is Farmed Salmon Safe to eat?
Comment: The problem with this diet is that Dr. Perricone recommends you eat only wild salmon. I had to ask myself right away what's wrong with eating farmed salmon and why won't Dr. Perricone recommend eating it as an alternative? With all the wild salmon you're supposed to eat, this diet gets very cost prohibitive very fast.
If consumers knew what was in farmed salmon they might think twice about eating it more than once a month. Recent studies show that farmed salmon bought at markets on the East and West coasts were found to be contaminated with PCBs, or polychlorinated biphenyls, at an average level far higher than any other protein source, including other seafood. PCBs are insidious and have been identified as probable human carcinogens.
This diet works as long as you can afford to eat wild salmon numerous times a week. The consumer friendly alternative is the L.A. Shape Diet - it even recommends some of the same supplements. I have had great results by combining the L.A. shape diet with Perricone's recommended supplements and lotions. Just get smart and find the discount versions of Perricone's brands to get the benefit of great skin without dropping a lot of cash.

Summary: The doctorsecret is now out.
Comment: Hi fellow antiWrinkle and antiagers!
I wrote this before on a different book review. The book is really a good menu or instruction set. It is written well and very enlightning. I'm sure it was made to promote his products but I found several websites that sell the stuff at a better price. doctorsecret.com or even ebay. The process is the best one written so far. I often hear I look 10-15 years younger. At this rate I'll be 16 again soon. Dr Perricone is handsome and intelligent, that helps in the selling. The Glycolic acid treatment proceedure or Serum CEster described are the best.
Thanks and good luck.
