Fashion designer Jo Wyckmans on ‘Healthy on the
inside, beautiful on the outside’
‘You will only look good on the outside
if you feel good on the inside’
‘You will only look good on the outside if you feel good
on the inside’
Fashion designer Jo Wyckmans is fascinated by the
concept of inner beauty and health as one combination.
In his search for the essence of health he became
passionate about nutritional science and discovered
that healthy eating can prevent disease. His book
‘Healthy on the inside, beautiful on the outside’ examines
the link between health, diet and positive thinking.
‘Healthy on the inside, beautiful on the outside’ is a
fascinating read. Straight away the readers feels that
bad eating habits should be eliminated. The book is a
plea for controlled organic nutrition and is informative
without being pedantic. Jo Wyckmans attacks the
vested interests of the food and pharmaceutical
industries. He explains why ‘light’ products are a
nonsense and why margarine should be abandoned. |

He points out the difference between good and bad
cholesterol and describes how cancers can be
prevented, notwithstanding a genetic predisposition. It
is a book full of common sense, supported by scientific
arguments. It provides details on the impact of vitamins,
minerals, oils and fats, fibres and beneficial bacteria in
a stimulating and fun way. A list of general complaints
(e.g. stomach complaints, migraine) and tips on how
to treat them with specific foods is included at the end
of the book. If you are really ill you need to see a doctor,
but the correct diet will certainly promote the healing
process.
‘Life is much more enjoyable in a healthy body.
You have more energy, you feel happier and you are
better equipped to cope with stress’ |
