Marianne Zullas, owner of MZ Skin Care, in Chestnut Hill, will present a free workshop, “Radiant Nutrition: How Your Body Operates in Relation to the Food You Eat,” from 6:30 to 8 p.m. on October 18. The workshop will cover the systems of the body and how they operate in response to diet.

“Good nutrition is the most critical building block of a healthy body,” says Zullas. “In order to develop a system of radiant nutrition, people need to understand how their bodies function and the fundamentals of a healthy, balanced diet.” 

Zullas says that her regimen for radiant beauty includes adequate protein, healthy fats, hydration, minerals and enzymes, sea algae and super foods. “I believe that beautiful skin is the result of a well-balanced diet, which is why I decided to bring a holistic nutritionist to the MZ Skin Care staff,” says Zullas. “Now my clients can take care of their skin externally and consult the nutritionist about any internal issues they may have that are due to a poor diet.”
