3 - I could have saved my money
This book was very expensive considering how much I paid for his "Paleo Diet" book. It mentions all the key points about having a healthy eating regimen as in his Paleo Diet book. I thought I would gain a lot more insight to why our skin develops acne. It does mention several explanations and studies. However, much of what is in this book is mentioned in his Paleo Diet book and Paleo Diet for Athletes book already. There were many testimonals from people with bad skin and how they improved after following a strict diet. I could have saved my money by not buying the book and just followed his eating regimen and avoiding processed foods in his original Paleo diet book. So if you have read his other diet books, just stick to that. It is pretty much the same thing.
5 - It WORKS!!
I am a 30 year old female, Professional Esthetician working in Skin care, who has had acne since the age of 12. I've been on Accutane, prescription medication, prescription topicals, and yet have consistently struggled with this. I found this book through a friend who has been on the Paleo diet for awhile now and swears by it for fitness and health related reasons.

I have been following this diet for 2 weeks now and am AMAZED at the progress thus far. The diet is strict no doubt, but my craving for sugar and dairy have subsided in week 2, and the one time I cheated and had pancakes at breakfast, I found myself craving the veggie omelette my friend was eating. I am still not sure exactly what my trigger for acne in my diet is, however I can report that in week 2, not only have I not had a single breakout (a miracle in itself trust me) but my skin is less red and inflammation from past breakouts is significantly reduced. I would say I am about a week away from being able to go out with no makeup on and feel comfortable, something I have not done in years.

The other bonus of this diet is I lost 4 pounds since I've been on it. I am a fit person as it is, weighing 2 weeks ago at 115 pounds, so it didn't seem like there was anywhere to lose 4 pounds, but I did. It was all in the form of fat, and I'm excited to have my body fat percentage measured as I know it has gone down. Previously I was working out 5 days a week to maintain my body weight, and in the last 2 weeks Ive been to the gym twice, yet managed to lose 4 pounds, and looking more toned every day. This program works, and I feel absolutely amazing being on it. The first few days are tough but eat a ton of veggies, a ton of fruit, and you'll get through it. IT WORKS!
5 - Looking and Feeling Better!
I would not hesitate to echo what has already been said in other reviews about this book. Definately made a difference and I have more energy. I don't throw stars around lightly - it is five-star-worthy in all aspects.

5 - Essential for those serious about dealing with their acne.
This book is a must-read for those serious about dealing with their acne. Diet is essential. The author does a great job of explaining why - based on what we now understand about how our bodies work. It is also helpful to understand that acne is not common among populations that are not indstrialized and therefore do not have the SAD (Standard American Diet)diets that we have in America!
5 - The Cure For Acne Is Determined By What You Put Inside Your Mouth
Don't eat too much chocolate, fatty foods, or sweets or you'll have zits all over your face! I heard that for most of my life and who was I to question it. And yet even when I avoided all those things so dutifully, I still dealt with acne into my 30s. Using every over-the-counter acne-fighting wipe and cream I could find, nothing at all worked to clear up the blemishes on my face and body. Dr. Loren Cordain, creator of the famous low-carb Paleo Diet, understands this problem and created a dietary solution to a very common problem. Like most health conditions, acne is a direct result of our modern diet and we need to eat like our early ancestors to restore the natural beauty and complexion that they had way back when. He identifies the causes of acne, what foods you can eat to "cure" it, and what foods you should avoid to keep it from coming back. There are 174 scientific references to back up every single recommendation provided in this 120-page book-this will give you plenty of evidence-based proof to be convinced!
