Sometimes finding the right diet plan that is tailored to you can be a tough decision to make, as well as discouraging. The British Facial Analysis Diet is a new program where your diet can be tailored to your specific needs where the condition of your body can be diagnosed just by looking at your face!

The wrinkles, pigmentation, markings, color, and other lines on your face are all signs that your body is lacking the right amount of essential minerals. The British Facial Analysis Diet can get your body back on track of looking and feeling great!

Overview

The British Facial Analysis Diet was developed by Elizabeth Gibaud. It is now being used by a number of celebrities, including Kate Winslet. For Kate, this diet helped her lose all of the weight that she gained during her pregnancy with Mia, her daughter.

The diet prescribes a meal plan that is based on the facial features and complexion of the individual. It is based from German theories, which draw on biochemistry principles. Facial analysis has been a technique used in detecting certain intolerances of food, as well as problems digesting food that are caused from deficiencies in the intake of minerals. This is an accurate tool that is a major factor in treating disease. Also, the analysis is not difficult to do, as everyone have done it before, noticing the dark rings under your eyes, pale cheeks, and puffy eyes. All of these are familiar signs that you have some kind of imbalance of minerals.

Your face is not the only tool that is used either, as the tongue, hands, fingernails, and feet are also used. This also reflects back to your doctor asking you to stick your tongue out before he/she examined you. This diet will allow you to find out exactly which foods you should and should not have. Knowing this will help your energy levels increase , as well as allow you to lose weight more effectively.

Why Your Face?

Why is it that the imbalance signs show through your skin? Particularly, why does it show in your face?

This has to do with your face being an especially sensitive part of your anatomy. It is also affected by a lot of fluctuations that occur in your body. Not having enough of one or more essential minerals may create abnormal conditions that can manifest themselves in your face. If these minerals are not administered to your body, then severe illness and/or allergies can occur.

The Steps of the British Facial Analysis Diet

In the beginning, you will start the diet with a detox for two days . This is so that all of the processed foods and alcohol can be avoided. Then after the two days, you will follow a core diet for two weeks that will cleanse your body. This plan will eliminate irritating foods, while using soothing alternatives to replace them with. Then Elizabeth will prescribe daily supplements to take.

Main Tips for this Diet

You should always choose brown instead of white when eating bread, pasta, or rice. All that pasta consists of is water and white flour, which are the same ingredients that can be used to make glue. Nutritious versions of pasta are buckwheat and brown.

If you tend to bloat a lot, try to eat traditional British staples, such as potatoes and oats. Pasta and rice have been added to our diets recently, and some people can have trouble digesting this.

Unsalted butter is better to choose over margarine and other spreads, because butter is a natural and fresh product, whereas the other products have additives and dyes.

Also, choose jam that is sweetened with its own juices, because many of the jams that are sugar-free still consist of artificial sweeteners that can pollute your body.

Make sure that you drink enough water during the day. If you are thirsty, that means that you are dehydrated already so your body will be unable to function properly.

Take breaks, getting plenty of fresh air at a park or somewhere away from the city.

Avoid drinking alcohol and caffeine during the diet, because coffee and tea can both cause water retention, headaches, insomnia, and anxiety, while alcohol can cause dehydration.
