As a physician, perhaps no one knows better than Dr. Perricone how important it is to find a cure for the many diseases that plague our modern society. From Alzheimer’s to diabetes, obesity, depression, cancer and heart disease, we are assaulted on many fronts. However, the search for cures is not the only way to approach the problem of disease. Prevention even in as tiny increments of an ounce, is worth the proverbial pound of cure, and Dr. Perricone is a firm beliver in prevention, which is the reason behind this message – a way to give back to one of the best ways we have to ensure a long, healthy and happy life.

Our last entry was about one form of preventative measures: pet therapy. But, there are numerous other measures we can do each day: take a skin and total body multivitamin, eat plenty of antioxidative foods like pycnogenol, and finally make sure to have a great day! We often overlook the strong connection between the mind and body.

All weekend, Perricone MD will be donating 5% of all proceeds to the Best Friends Animal Society in support of the healing power of pets, and making us all feel a little bit better!
