Skin diet - Days 1 - 4
Day one
Breakfast
A bowl of cereal with skimmed milk and chopped dates, apricots and Brazil nuts
Lunch
Chicken or turkey salad - why not make it a bit spicy and try Oriental chicken salad
Dinner
Fish pie with green vegetables - we've got a really simple fish pie recipe
Day two
Breakfast
Blueberry pancakes
Lunch
Poached eggs with cooked spinach and a handful of seeds thrown over the top and a glass of fresh orange
Dinner
Large salad with any combination of vegetables, try to make it as colourful as possible because brightly coloured veg, such as beetroot, carrots and peppers, contain more anti-oxidants than other veg. See our rainbow salad for inspiration (pictured)
Day three
Breakfast
Breakfast smoothie
Lunch
Baked beans and scrambled eggs on wholemeal toast
Dinner
Spicy salmon or tuna steaks and a green salad
Day four
Breakfast
Low-fat plain yogurt with red grapes, honey and chopped nuts or seeds
Lunch
Tomato soup with two small slices of rye bread (from large supermarkets) or four slices of Ryvita with olive oil spread
Dinner
Tofu stir-fry - Stir-fries are so easy but if you're stuck on the tofu, just follow our simple recipe for
sesame and chilli tofu with mange tout and have it with brown rice or wholewheat noodles.
