The meal: Turkey Sandwich on a wheat roll with lettuce and garlic/olive oil spread, reduced-fat tortilla chips with tomatillo salsa, and a Coke Zero

Kimberly Snyder's assessment: "What I really want to stand up and scream about is how people continue to voluntarily consume chemicals and acids via diet drinks and sodas such as Coke Zero. This is madness! First of all, Coke Zero is sweetened with an artificial mix of potentially harmful sweeteners, including the aspartame, which among many other things is being investigated by the National Cancer Institute for a potential link to brain cancer. Coke Zero was even banned in Venezuela!

For anyone that cares about beauty, health, or trying to delay or slow aging even a little bit, Coke Zero ranks among the very worse things you can put in your body. Sure we can slather sunscreens and anti-aging creams on all day long, but putting acidic chemicals into the body will erode our beauty and age us with each passing day from the inside out.

Sarah, please, I beg of you to stop! Can you imagine saying at lunch, 'Yes I'd like that carbonated drink that includes sulphite ammonia caramel (for artificial color), phosphoric acid (also used to clean chrome), sodium citrates, acesulfame potassium (another chemical sweetener), sodium benzoate (you wouldn�t even want this to touch your skin), artificial flavors and caffeine'? Eek!

I�d also love to see more fresh, water-containing produce in her lunch. Right now the only veggie I see is a measly piece of lettuce on her sandwich. The salsa is processed I'm guessing (from a jar), which makes the tomatoes acidic, so that doesn't count. The turkey, bread and oil spread combo is difficult to digest, as all the different food groups (protein, starch and fat) require different digestive enzymes to break down, and this combo would therefore be very slow. It is also very low in fiber -- the wheat roll is full of gluten, which more of us are increasingly sensitive to, especially as wheat becomes more genetically modified, and I avoid wheat at all costs and recommend that my clients do the same.

The corn chips may be reduced in fat, but unless that product contains non-GMO corn, the corn they were made from is most likely grown in a cornucopia of toxic, liver-clogging chemicals and pesticides. In any case, corn chips in general sure are starchy and also full of low quality, bloating table salt. "

"Sorry Sarah, I can tell you were trying to be 'healthy' by calorie-counting, main-stream standards. But I want you to do better, and you can easily make some changes. I recommend having a big salad at lunch, with beauty-supporting veggies like cucumbers and carrots and throw some high-enzyme sprouts into the mix. If you're going to have a sandwich, a veggie wrap or avocado sandwich would digest better than the meat-starch mix will. The idea is to simplify your food groups for easier digestion and more energy in the afternoon. Or if you want to keep your turkey, chicken or fish in at lunch, you can put it directly on the salad and leave out the starch. If you eat a bountiful amount of fibrous greens, with the choices above, you probably won't even miss the corn chips, or at least can separate them and eat them later in the afternoon as a snack.

And finally and most importantly, for the love of beauty, please ditch the Coke Zero!"

The meal: Frozen Healthy Choice Tuscan Style Chicken meal

Kimberly Snyder's assessment: "I understand the intense temptation to buy those frozen meals at the supermarket. After all, all you have to do is microwave them and you're all set, right? And, it sure is convenient how all the nutritional info is neatly listed out on the back of the box, without having to guess, right?

But behind the glitzy, easy temptation that packaged foods present as being 'healthy' and 'low calorie' the truth remains: Packaged foods are processed foods. And processed foods never, ever behave the same in the body as fresh, whole foods do.

The company's website didn't provide a full ingredient list on this product, but I'm sure there were more than several that do not qualify as whole foods. The nutritional information did say, 'contains milk, soy and wheat' probably because they are such high allergens. They are also two of the most mucus-forming, extremely acidic foods in the body, and combined with the gluten-containing wheat, we are seeing a meal that will not digest very cleanly in the body, or promote Kristal's natural beauty. Why? Because the more acidic we are, the easier it is to hold on to excess weight and the faster we tend to age.

Another thing to point out is the 540 mg of sodium, which is more than likely coming from cheap, denatured table salt. As we are moving into summer, who wants to look overly bloated from cheap salts?"

"If we want to not only slim down, but improve our complexions and overall beauty, while maintaining high energy, we need to look beyond just the calories or protein content of food. I recommend Kristal ditch the processed frozen meals, and treat herself to a fresh salad and grilled veggie wrap or some freshly made brown rice with avocado sushi rolls instead."

Next: Email Marketing Specialist Devran's lunch is appraised...

The meal: Brown rice pasta with stir-fried tofu, mushrooms, kale in a little bit of olive oil and some low-sodium soy sauce and an orange.

Kimberly Snyder's assessment: "This lunch isn't horrible, especially if Devran is cooking it herself. It has a macrobiotic theme to it, minus the fruit since fruit is considered an occasional rather than a main staple of the macrobiotic diet.

Tofu is OK occasionally, but I don't recommend in on a daily basis. Soy in our country is now a mass produced crop that is not only one of the most heavily sprayed with pesticides, but it is also highly genetically engineered. Genetically modified foods can increase food sensitivities, which may be why soy has become one of the top allergenic foods in America. Soy is also a trypsin inhibitor, meaning it keeps us from assimilating protein correctly, and at the same time it contains isoflavones, which have been known to depress thyroid function. It also contains phytoestrogens that mimic hormones in our body and can lead to complications. So while we may consume limited amounts of soy from time to time, it should not be a large mainstay of the diet. In 'The Beauty Detox Solution' I also explain which soy options are best. For example, tempeh, which is a fermented soy product, is actually a better option than tofu."
