Has anybody tried the Pericone diet for Acne???
Essentially, it is a low Glycemic Index, moderate protein, moderate fat plan that includes lots of colorful fruits and veggies. Among the no-no's are:
This is tough b/c I am a vegetarian AND I am also cooking fo rmy husband and son. So while I could concievably live on tofu, salads, and fruit; THEY would not survive on it.
- any and all grains except barley and steel-cut oats and flax seed. That means no wheat or wheat products, no breakfast cereal, no pasta, no rice, and no bread
- all hydrogenated and trans fats
- Potatoes
- corn
- my beloved coffee
(but tea is OK)
I had almost quit smoking when I started on this, and cutting back on the coffee made my niccotine cravings almost unbearable.
When I try to eliminate wheat, the sugar cravings are unbelievable. I ate 3 hearshy bars one night!!
Has anybody else done this? Has it been worth the struggle? Any sugestions?
HELP!!
