Home / Benefits of A Healthy Face
In a world filled with misinformation about facial conditions, many turn to plastic surgery to address perceived flaws.
Facial flaws generally arise from bone growth deficiency and muscle weakness, not poor genetics, calling for surgical augmentation. Allow yourself to embrace a new way of thinking about health and beauty, right down to the bone.
You heard it here first; ANYONE can become beautiful and healthy. Whilst genetics certainly play a role in beauty, your face is also a reflection of your habits whether those are healthy or unhealthy. In every moment of every day, your movements determine if you grow your face or shrink it. Breathing, swallowing, articulation, chewing and sleeping are all habits that contribute to your overall health and beauty so to understand the magnitude the effect these habits have on your face growth, you need to move past the genetics paradigm of facial appearance.
As a population full of mouth breathers, most of us perform physically below our potential, unfortunately delivering many dangerous health risks in the form of disordered breathing, obstruct sleep apnea, oxidative stress, cognitive impairment, reduced athleticism, inflammation, anxiety and a pathway to chronic illness.
To understand why we as a society need to address our daily habitual routine, learn more about the benefits of a healthy face.
This book educates you to the findings that heavily modified supermarket foods and technological food processing interfere with your face’s ability to grow to full size.

The saying “beauty is only skin deep” has become a familiar cliché, often used to downplay the significance of beauty in comparison to inner qualities. Of course, overall attractiveness encompasses important qualities such as behaviour, intellectual and emotional intelligence, compassion, and the expression of our energetic nature, but this does not need to subordinate the additional role physical appearance plays in our lives.
