Beauty From the Inside Out: Kimberly Snyder's The Beauty Detox Solution

Achieving optimal health, sustained energy, and radiant glowy skin have always been great aspirations of mine.  When I recently caught wind of A-list celebrities and doctors buzzing and raving about Kimberly Snyder's book, The Beauty Detox Solution: Eat Your Way to Radiant Skin, Renewed Energy, and the Body You've Always Wanted, I knew I had to explore its contents and see for myself the possibilities of a better lifestyle.

In just the first few chapters, already are its pages lined with an abundance of excellent health, beauty, and food knowledge and education.  Kimberly's approach is a very simple but revolutionary one with her plan beautifully supported with numerous examples rooted in mother nature, backed up by scientific studies, and strengthened by success stories from clients of all lifestyles.

Kimberly goes on to share her secrets for cleansing and healing the body naturally with the best nutrient rich foods.  Kimberly outlines her three-phase program clearly and details: the order in which to consume these superfoods for maximum nutrient absorption, how to combine them for optimum digestion, how to achieve radiant skin, lustrous hair, and strong nails, as well as explains the importance of minerals, enzymes, and probiotics for cellular rejuvenation; reversing the aging process and finally, provides healthy delicious recipes that can be personalized to fit the needs of all.

For the past week, I have incorporated Kimberly's famous Glowing Green Smoothie into my daily routine, for breakfast each morning:

Get the Recipe

My first Glowing Green Smoothie was surprisingly quite good and keep me nice and full until lunch time; a definite first.  The moment of truth came to be later that day when I suddenly became aware of how much energy I had and still had even hours later. Rather than having sluggish uninspired moments, I experienced complete clarity of mind and determination to complete any given task at hand--amazing.

While a freshly made Glowing Green Smoothie is always best, there are times I find myself on-the-go, so to keep on track, I prepare a larger batch the night before, freeze portion sizes in serving size glasses and store what will be consumed the following morning, in the refrigerator.  Come the morning, all I have to do is take out the glass, pop in a straw, and sip away; it doesn't get any easier than that.

I am astounded and so grateful; this morning ritual has transformed my mood and my days.  Because of this new found energy, I find myself making better food choices throughout the day and not craving junk (pre-packaged or processed foods).  I am truly happy with how I feel and how quickly I've seen results--and this is just the beginning.  I'm looking forward to seeing which additional beauty benefits will manifest as I continue to follow Kimberly's Beauty Detox Solution.

As you can see, I absolutely recommend this beauty book; it contains invaluable information on how you can transform your life, overcome illness, and achieve the healthiest best beauty version of you.

Since blogging about The Beauty Detox Solution, many have asked which benefits I've seen unfold from having the Glowing Green Smoothie daily.  Today marked Day 30 of following Kim's plan and I wanted to share with you a photo, taken earlier in direct sunlight, of how amazing my skin is looking as a result:

It's Glowing Green Smoothies for me for life xo

**Update: 12/2/11**

Hooray!!  A milestone has been reached!!  Today marked Day 90!!!  At this point, the Glowing Green Smoothie recipe has become second nature and is the part of my morning that I truly look forward to. I’ve discovered that I prefer mixed greens in place of romaine lettuce and I also like to add just a few purple grapes (it adds a lovely sweetness). Finally, fresh mint leafs just add that extra feeling of refreshment!

I cannot tell you just how many flattering compliments I have received on my glowing skin; from friends, family, clients, and even strangers; it’s incredible!  Recently, I worked with Vanity Girl Hollywood and Makeup Mandy for a blogger beauty event where I had the opportunity to meet two of my fellow beauty bloggers/vloggers, April and Jessika.  They both wanted to know my secret and so I revealed to them the power of the Glowing Green Smoothie and Kim’s amazing wisdom and knowledge!

Below are their videos sharing their experiences thus far:

I’m so thrilled that so many of you are joining me on this journey to health!!  I love to hear about your progress, experiences, variations, and I want you to know that you have my support and I'm so proud of you!!  You deserve a colorful, radiant, and healthy life!! xo
