"Blum's complete guide to women's health is an encouraging, smart and sisterly volume that deserves a place alongside other trusted go-to resources." —Publishers Weekly
From Esther Blum, an expert nutritionist at Dr. Perricone's flagship Manhattan store, comes the breakthrough news that, yes, you can eat and drink what you love and still look and feel gorgeous. Esther reveals the secrets to beautiful skin, a fantastic figure, and peace of mind—all while living the good life. It's about knowing how to make the right choices: Which cocktails cause the least damage—is a Merlot better than a Margarita? What natural supplements combat out-of-control hormones? With a troubleshooting section on treating specific ailments, delicious recipes, and fast fixes, Eat, Drink, and Be Gorgeous makes it possible to have that piece of cake and eat it, too.
"Filled with sound nutritional advice on what to eat and drink and how to repair the damage when our good intentions slip. A delightful book, as entertaining as it is educational." —Nicholas Perricone, MD
"You've heard people talk about the 'feel-good book of the year?' Well, Eat, Drink, and Be Gorgeous is the 'feel gorgeous book of the year!'" —Karen Salmansohn, author of Happy Habits
"A lusty, sensual 'diet book' for real people . . . filled with great information and user-friendly advice for people who really appreciate food; best of all, it's written with a twinkle in the eye and a sense of glamour." —Johnny Bowden, PhD, CNS, bestselling author of Living Low Carb
"A superbly hip guide to staying healthy with cutting-edge nutrition." —Robert Crayhon, MS, author of Robert Crayhon's Nutrition Made Simple

      It's quite possible to have your cake and eat it too, argues dietitian-nutritionist Blum in this bubbly, vivacious approach to living well the healthy way. Avoiding dietary absolutes and encouraging readers to make gradual changes in their eating habits rather than drastic ones (which are often hard to keep up), Blum's sensible guide is sure to resonate with young women. She makes compelling arguments for choosing organic foods-going so far as to list the top 12 most contaminated fruits and vegetables-and extols the virtues of grass-fed meat and dairy. An informative chapter detailing alcohol's specific effects on women (including calorie counts for a long list of beers and cocktails) enable readers to make the most of their nights out without paying for it later. Troubleshooting suggestions offer relief from the symptoms of everything from hangovers and herpes to smoking cessation and premenstrual discomfort. Rounded out with chapters on dietary supplements and depression, as well as a Q&A for frequently asked queries-"What kind of prepared foods (i.e., frozen dinners) are actually good for me?"-Blum's guidebook complete guide to women's health is an encouraging, smart and sisterly volume that deserves a place alongside other trusted go-to resources.
