Patrick Holford Good Medicine
30 years of clinical and research experience has taught Patrick what really works for the most common health problems we experience. In Good Medicine he covers over 75 of the most common health problems and offers.
Holford is a firm believer in treating the root of the problem with diet. Did you know, for instance, that eating dairy foods often causes spots? Or that being deficient in Vitamin B2 can mean dull skin and dry patches? A diet high in meat and milk, Holford believes, can contribute to oestrogen dominance which is often a factor in acne break-outs.
Sugar, too, is an all-round baddy. 'High-sugar and high-glycemic load diets are strongly linked to bad skin', Holford says. Insulin, which is produced as a response to sugar intake, promotes sebum production, so cut down if you already have oily skin. Zinc and vitamin C benefit the skin and you can use natural retinol creams as a natural alternative to retinoids, often prescribed for skin problems.
