Excerpted from book "Your Right to Be Beautiful: How to Halt Train of Aging and Meet Most Beautiful You" by Tonya Zavasta.

What do you want an adorable pancreas?”—
Jean Kerr was closer to truth than she might have realized. Every outside organ of human body is eligible to be called beautiful, but because internal organs are ordinarily seen only by surgeons, they get excluded from beauty contest. If our internal organs were observed, we would describe them in terms of attractiveness, and normal color and shape would be considered beautiful. You need only compare pictures of normal healthy internal organs with pictures of their infected and diseased counterparts in medical books to convince yourself that health and beauty are synonymous.
A healthy colon looks like evenly braided muscles. On other hand, unhealthy colons are deformed: twisted and looped in some parts, ballooned and engorged in others, as revealed by barium X-rays. Visit a colon therapist, if only to observe pictures of unhealthy colons and see for yourself how ugly one can be on inside.
The blood of a healthy person is also beautiful. The red blood cells are uniformly round. The blood of a body full of toxins is contaminated with pathological bacteria, abnormal proteins, and parasites. When red blood corpuscles clump together, condition is called Rouleau or “sticky” blood. Rouleau, this clumpy, unattractive blood, appears 5 to 20 years before symptoms of illness present themselves. It is an early messenger of hundreds of degenerative diseases. Conglomerates of red blood cells cannot access fine capillaries of body. Rouleau is particularly damaging to organs of head, in particular eyes, ears, and scalp. A diet high in meat and dairy products increases stickiness of your platelets. Blood that becomes sticky is a sure precursor of blood clots, strokes, and heart attacks.
The arterial pipelines in a healthy circulatory system are clean and clear from obstructions. In healthy arteries, inner lining, called intima, is smooth, supple, and without cracks. A cross-section of a normal coronary artery shows no arterial thickening or blood-blocking plaque deposits.
An unhealthy circulatory system paints an entirely different picture. The middle muscular layer of artery can no longer fully recoil after a pulse wave has expanded vessel. Elasticity of artery walls is reduced, and cracks and hollows appear. They catch calcium, cholesterol deposits, fat accumulations, and clusters of platelets. Cholesterol deposits roughen inner surfaces and damage walls of arteries. At first, plaque build-up does not cause discomfort--it is just ugly. But later, thick, clogged bloodstream results in coronary arteries becoming occluded with fatty buildup, which effects circulation and causes deterioration of connective tissues. Deterioration and abnormal hardening of arteries result in a process called arteriosclerosis and may cause heart disease, stroke, and hypertension.
