The Beauty Detox Power: Nourish Your Mind and Body for Weight Loss and Discover True Joy

I have never heard of Kimberly Snyder until I came across her podcast on iTunes. I am on a journey to healing my mind, body and hormones and I instantly vibed with her podcast since I was on a leaky gut diet trying to heal my gut. I purchased her 1st book and loved it so much I read it in 3 days. ( I am not an avid reader) so that says something. From there I decided to give the GGS Smoothie a try and it has become a staple to my day. I also checked out her site and found out she sold a soil based probiotic ( which i was already taking pre-script) and Detoxify basically Mag07 all cheaper than what I was taking. Fast forward 3 weeks implementing the basics in Beauty Detox Solutions I decided to order this book to see if I could get anything out of it from a non-nutritional standpoint of healing. I read reviews and was hesitant but OMG am I so glad I purchased this book!!!!! It's soooooo fundamental to healing in general but gears to those who are looking to " loose weight". I especially appreciated the candor and honesty that Kimberly shares with us about her experiences, others, and being real about how to see and maintain changes. There were some reviews that mentioned her advertising her products and talking too much about her personal story but I didn't get that vibe at all. On a side note I always find it funny how people get so "sensitive" when independent entrepreneurs advertise themselves or their products but say nothing about the large big mogul business that do ur harm instead of good and constantly advertise! Side rant but I almost didn't buy this book until I thought she is advertising good even if It is a lot . I learned some tips/steps to deal with past traumas/feelings. How to use yoga and food to heal depending on what I am looking to address emotionally, and more recipes that sound delicious. I admit at first I looked at the recipes and thought this lifestyle cost so much but if you just buy the base stuff then all you need to grab is fruits and veggies each week or biweekly which is nominal if shopping smart . Overall you spend less long term and become happier and healthier. I happen to think I needed this book first before reading any other book on losing weight, nutrition, or aryuveda ( which I have been practicing and exposed to for a year). This book explains why for everything you do and makes total sense🤓. Two thumps up and I will be buying a hard copy also.

I've had a weight issue for most of my life. I lost 60 pounds on Atkins and another 30 with Kimberly's other books in 2012. I felt great. I then got into a horrible relationship and gained those thirty pounds back over the course of a year after (stupidly) abandoning Kimberly's principles. After working up the courage to leave I found out I was pregnant and ended up putting on those sixty pounds I had lost being I (again, stupidly) blamed it all on pregnancy.A few weeks ago my son turned one and I haven't lost a pound. I've done Atkins, Paleo, Diet of Hope, and a host of other fads and lifestyle plans with no success. I still felt sluggish and frankly sick all the time. I finally decided to bite the bullet being Snyder's rules and principles have worked the best for me, both weight loss wise and how I feel. I'm now down ten pounds. I knew I was going to miss my comfort foods but wanted to suck it up for my health.What Kimberly has done in her third book is no small achievement. She has taught me about my spiritual connection with food and has broadened her recipe selection to include for cravings, something I don't think her last two books properly addressed. She also has made sure that these foods are properly combined, something that was overlooked with a few recipes in her books in the past. The macaroni and cheese recipe is going to be made tomorrow being that is my all time favorite food.Cons? It does start to feel like an ode to Kimberly Snyder. While I get that she is beaming and radiant, I have no want to look at her face every few pages. She also makes some outlandish claims such as a chi blockage in a chakra is what causes certain people to be blind. No. Just no.What I do love is that she explores a lot of Eastern medicine. She explains chakras and tells you how you can fit that in even if you are a Christian, Jewish, Muslim, etc.. She really has outdone herself on this book. While I realize not everyone is going to agree with the concept of chi and chakras, I find that I am connected to it. She also focuses on what should be included in your routines such as morning meditations, yoga, and no tv at least a half hour before bed.If she didn't make some of the more outlandish claims I would definitely have given this book a five. Overall I found it to be wonderfully all encompassing. I also just enjoyed the guacamole pizza two hours ago and sit I'll feel more than satisfied.Do note that the Kindle edition has the titles of all recipes in white on white. Just highlight them so you can see what you're reading.

I have every one of Kimberly's books so far and this one is my absolute favorite so far! The recipes are divine and her information is beautifully written and presented as always. Kimberly is also so positive, inspiring and knowledgeable. Highly recommend for those of all dietary preferences/nutritional backgrounds! Her approach to nutrition is not dogmatic or demeaning and truly encourages to go by how your body is responding and feeling.

I read a lot of diet books, unfortunately, mainly looking for “the secret” that will make and keep me thin without doing much of anything different. I’m almost done with this book and it’s marked with highlighted paragraphs, marked pages, and I’ve also taken notes. I do not typically do this with any book really. For the first time I’ve started to face why I eat the way I do and how my culture has guided me to how I eat today. It’s not necessarily bad or negative if it’s not as healthy as you want, but it’s meant to improve your self awareness with your relationship with food. When we build that relationship and come to treat ourselves with more care and love, we make better choices. I recognize this message isn’t necessarily new but the way Kimberly words it and the research she backs it up with is what is staying with me. This is definitely a book I will be reading again and again. Thank you, Kimberly, for recognizing those who suffer through these challenges and for providing tools to improve and create a more fulfilling everyday life.

I be sure to read, and try some recipes. Good price, great time keeping, very good condition and great packaging

Excellent book and excellent service, need i say more

Great inspirational book. I wish Amazon had more products from Kimberly available.

Working my way through this at a snail's pace what with everything else. Always come away feeling better.

Just really started reading but can not put down as it's such a good read and helpful tip for life
