I am 70 years and I love this book
I am 70 years and I love this book..It is for women of all ages. It has chapters on diet, emotions, exercise and health issues. I call it my "Go to book for very aspect of a women's life." It is a great reference book for a whole bunch of ideas to try. I highly recommend this book.

Informative Beauty Resource
I ordered this guide because I refer to the Goop website for information regarding beauty, nutrition and fitness. I have found great tips and useful information there. Can I afford everything that Gwyneth and the staff recommend? Of course not (e.g. a $200 sweatshirt??? I think I'll pass). But at the heart of the site there is a solid foundation of helpful information in a variety of areas.I read the book and was not disappointed. I loved the fact that there was an emphasis placed on beauty starting within with clean eating. I have already used several detox recipes (miso soup and chicken paillards) and found them to be nourishing and satisfying. I have NOT tackled the recommended detox but I think the guidelines are helpful even if you would like to tweak your diet. The book was well-researched and I enjoyed hearing from experts within the fields of everything from gut bacteria to foam rolling. I have ordered a foam roller and began to incorporate the moves into my routine and I can feel the difference in my body.To address those people who despise all things Gwyneth Paltrow I will say this: give it a try. I understand people who feel as if she's out of touch with the reality of daily life for most of us; however, you must also realize that her life does NOT mirror ours in socioeconomic status or privilege. As a result, she has access to the best of everything. I don't know about you, but when it comes to finding out about cutting edge beauty, health, travel and nutrition, I want to know what SHE knows. It's like having that cool friend that can get you into all of the best parties. Yes please!! I have found useful products, tips and health information that I have incorporated into my life from the site as well as the guide and I'm NOT wealthy (rich in blessings but not rich). Would I recommend using it as your beauty bible? Probably not, but I would never suggest using any ONE resource for knowledge about a subject (s). There is a wealth of information out there to be had. Do I recommend this as a solid addition to your existing library? Absolutely.

While I really like her Goop beauty line I think it is ridiculous ...
While I really like her Goop beauty line I think it is ridiculous to include a section on botox in this book. The majority of Goop Clean Beauty focuses on avoiding toxins so why include info on one of the most - if not the most - dangerous toxins on the planet. Also the book mentions multiple times the importance of not smoking and avoiding cigarettes but Paltrow herself admits to being a weekly smoker. I would normally let this kind of hypocrisy slide but given Ms. Paltrow's reluctance to ever admit to failure / making a mistake or being anything less than perfect my tolerance for her has reached capacity.I actually like her site a lot and find some of the things she shares useful and interesting. In future offerings it would be nice if she included a little bit more vulnerability, empathy, and authenticity in her contributions.

I absolutely love this book
I absolutely love this book! It is well-researched, informative, and extremely helpful for navigating through all the latest healthcare trends. I love that it contains information about how to live in a healthy way in every area of your life, not just your diet or your sleeping habits for example. The chapters progress in a logical order and are well laid-out. It's not a difficult read and I appreciated the fact that it doesn't brand itself as a certain lifestyle (i.e. vegan, paleo, etc.) so it can help anyone. I know this will be a book I come back to time and time again to use as a reliable resource for healthy living.

Very Similar to her other books
Was very disappointed with this book. I find you have to be careful with the material cause she's and the editors are not scientists or doctors. I found several recipes in this, is taken right from Gwyneth's other books and some information is questionable such as eating brown rice is healthier..look up that it has extremely high levels of arsenic (organic is worse) so be mindful what you are reading..
